The Festival expanded and established itself in Brazil, gradually approaching electronic art centers in several countries. Interchange became increasingly frequent, and the Festival began to fulfill its international vocation: the seventh edition featured guest participants from some of the world’s leading film production and diffusion institutions: Pierre Bongiovanni, from the Centre International de Création Vidéo de Montbéliard (France), Sandra Lischi, from Ondavideo Festival (Italy), Rod Stoneman, from Channel 4 (England), John Wiver, from the English film company Illuminations, Tom Van Vliet, curator and director of the Dutch World Wide Video Festival, and Jean-Paul Treffois, from Radio Télévision Belge de la Communauté Française (RTBF). Two international awards were presented, one by Centre International de Création Vidéo de Montbéliard, and the other by RTBF. The Festival also asserted itself as a hub for communication between video distributors, broadcasting companies, and TV stations.
