Inside the Archives: Registering for the Sundance Film Festival When Postage was Required

By Tanya De Angelis

Let's travel to the days of dial-up internet, NES games, sticker albums, chat rooms, and asking your grandparent or a friend with cable to record movies and music videos on your 2-3 rotating VHS tapes.

We're taking it back a few years (or decades?) to when you had to physically mail your Festival registration - cut or torn along the dotted line from the registration packet - to the Sundance Institute offices in Utah to ensure you had the pass or tickets you wanted for the Festival.

If you were on the mailing list, a registration brochure was sent to you with the new branding for the upcoming Festival. The brochures from 1985-2001 show the various shapes and sizes created each year, but they all had the registration form inside, ready to be completed and mailed back.
