Camerimage

The International Film Festival of the Art of Cinematography Camerimage (Polish: Międzynarodowy Festiwal Sztuki Autorów Zdjęć Filmowych Camerimage) is a festival that celebrates and awards cinematography and cinematographers.

The festival has hosted many prominent filmmakers including Darren Aronofsky, Jon M. Chu, Alfonso Cuarón, Peter Greenaway, Agnieszka Holland, James Ivory, Jim Jarmusch, Aki Kaurismäki, Krzysztof Kieślowski, Andrei Konchalovsky, Emir Kusturica, Ang Lee, Ken Loach, David Lynch, Paweł Pawlikowski, Roman Polański, Robert Richardson, Gus Van Sant, Ridley Scott, Volker Schlöndorff, Oliver Stone, István Szabó, Quentin Tarantino, Tom Tykwer, Denis Villeneuve, Andrzej Wajda, Peter Weir, and Wim Wenders.

Since 2013, short documentary films awarded the Golden Frog during Camerimage festival are granted consideration in the Documentary Short Subject category of the Academy Awards without having to meet the standard theatrical run requirement.

To meet all requirements, the running time limit of selected short documentary was decreased from 60 to 40 minutes.

This way requirements for short documentary films selected at both Camerimage festival and the Academy Awards are the same.
