Inspired by the wild, Durban Wild Talk Africa is a premier international wildlife, travel and cultural film festival and conference which takes place in South Africa. It attracts the global wildlife, travel and cultural filmmaking industry by offering a forum for delegates to meet, network and negotiate with Commissioning Editors, Distributors and Producers. In a celebration of natural history, eco-tourism and cultural filmmaking, the ROSCAR Awards will be awarded to filmmakers at a prestigious gala event during the Festival.

The ROSCAR Celebratory Awards are open to new or established film and television production companies, broadcasters and independent filmmakers, from anywhere in the world. To qualify, productions must have an aspect of the natural world as the central focus such as revealing new facts about animal behaviour, a natural habitat, ecology, travel, culture or humankind’s relationship with the natural environment and with animals. Productions may be of any length, and must have been completed after January 2007.

The deadline for entries and payment, to reach the office in Cape Town, South Africa is 28 November 2008. Visit the site to learn more.
