Marcin, why did you assume I was being sarcastic? I was quite serious. Just saying we should stop crying about it and reimagine the whole festival paradigm. DIY.

I started such a festival long time ago: Animator in Poznan, Poland. We do not charge any fee and the Grad Prix equals $1500 thousand dollars.

That’s important work, which for some festivals sometimes seems like a bit of a bs configuration. Though, it is the festival viewer / critic that spends the sometimes difficult and time-consuming work of assessing all of these films. If they’re making more money and not expanding their festivals, why not pay some of the artists? It also seems like this is a case-by-case.

If entries are increasing should not the scope and duration of the festivals increase to accommodate the record numbers. Increased entries also mean increased income to the festivals.
