More time for SIGNIS Salutation
View(s):Accepting application for SIGNIS Cinema Salutation 2013, a festival to recognize talents in cinema and television has been extended till June 30. The Salutation which is happening for its 37th time is to awards the best cinema production, teledrama, short films, documentary and even animations which were produced during the year 2012.
Lately the Salutation introduced new awards for those who exhibited special talent in the cinema and TV with recognitions for Short Film, Electronic Media, Song Visualization, TV Commercials, Credit Films, Trailers and Introductory Electronic Announcements.
Having started on December 21, 1972, with no awards but only just recognitions the Salutation has come a long way despite many odds and financial constraints.
At every festival it is customary that we have the keynote Address based on the current situation in the Local Cinema. In addition to all this we have added on a certain number of items to the programme to give deep meaning and also validity to this festival.
The best Film Critic, is being given the ‘Jayawilal Wilegoda Memorial’ award while the one who stands out in the field of cinema literature is being given the ‘Cyril B. Perera Memorial’ award.
