3. The participation fee is 10 Euros. Please pay in cash at the info counter in the festvial tent.

4. At the Spielbudenplatz in the Bitfilm festival tent we will provide several Mac edit suites. Guided by video experts from Hamburg's leading Apple Reseller Hamburg 4 you may use Final Cut Pro to edit your film there.
