Le Prix de la Région Guadeloupe


We are also pleased to announce a new award, Le Prix de la Région Guadeloupe, which will offer a prize to the best short film from Guadeloupe. This groundbreaking event, supported by the Conseil Régional de la Guadeloupe, provides for subtitling the winning entry in English. English subtitling will be offered by LVT Laser Subtitling-New York, a world leader in digital and film subtitling. The winning entry will also be programmed on two television stations, CUNY-TV in New York City, and Gayelle TV in Trinidad with more to come. We expect that this prize will start a new tradition for the festival.

Nous sommes aussi ravis d’annoncer une nouvelle récompense, Le Prix de la Région Guadeloupe, qui sera décerné au meilleur court-métrage de Guadeloupe. Cette nouvelle initiative soutenue par le Conseil Régional de
la Guadeloupe permettra le sous-titrage en anglais du film gagnant. Les sous-titres en anglais seront réalisés par LVT Laser Subtitling-New York, a leader mondial dans le sous-titrage digital et film. Le court-métrage gagnant sera aussi diffusé sur deux stations de télévision, CUNY-TV à New York et Gayelle TV à Trinidad et bien d’autres par suite. Nous souhaitons que ce prix soit le début d’une nouvelle tradition pour le festival.
