The 18th Kyoto International Student Film Festival Calls for Volunteer Translators
The Kyoto International Student Film Festival, which is celebrating its 18th anniversary this year, is looking for volunteer translators who can translate student films (Japanese or English) from Japan and abroad to be screened at the festival.
The translated version will be displayed as subtitles at the screening of the film at the 18th Kyoto International Student Film Festival, which will be held at Kyoto Cinema on November 21 (Sat) ~ 27 (Fri), 2015.
Those who cooperate will receive an invitation ticket during the film festival as a reward, and if they wish, they will receive a DVD with subtitles of the film they were in charge of.
In the past, directors such as Yuya Ishii and Eihiro Fukagawa have surpassed each other, so why don’t you join us in helping future masters around the world?
