Business Overview

The Tokyo Video Festival (TVF) has been held continuously since 1978 for the purpose of conveying video messages and improving expressiveness.
With the concept of "a place where people can present their work and talk about it," they are accepting works that transcend generations and genres. Anyone can participate, regardless of whether they are professionals or amateurs, with no restrictions on age, nationality, occupation, or other factors, and with a subject of 20 minutes or less.
At the "TVF Forum" held at the end of the fiscal year, creators, visitors and jury members gather together to actively engage in discussions and exchanges through their works. Then, the "Video Grand Prize" which symbolizes the year is selected and commended by the open jury. This symbolizes that it is not a competition, but a place where "individual" viewpoints are respected and dialogue and mutual understanding are promoted through images.

Profile

NPO TVF Created by Citizens
TVF is an organization (established in November 2009) formed by citizens to carry on the spirit of the 32 year history of the Tokyo Video Festival (TVF) (sponsored by Victor Company of Japan, Limited, and closed in March 2009). Through the production of video works and opportunities for presentation, we are working to revitalize communication through images. This is the 17th TVF organized by the NPO.
