New collaborative event in Los Angeles: Digital Cabaret!
- Posted on 09.16.08
A friend of mine, Melanie, and I are excited about a new experimental event we’re co-producing in Los Angeles. Our “Digital Cabaret” will be a mixed-media event that combines a participant-generated digital video contest and live musical performances.
We created the event to capitalize on the enthusiasm for new video technology by providing an opportunity where everyday filmmakers can meet, screen each other’s work, provide feedback and create even stronger short films. The event owes a large part of its format to the highly successful MOTH StorySlams, the 48 Hour Film Project and MeetUp.
The next Digital Cabaret is TUESDAY, October 14; 8pm sign-up*
Theme: PERSPECTIVE
M.C: Brian Finkelstein
Performer: Kid Gloves
@ Tangier Lounge
2138 Hillhurst Avenue at Los Feliz Boulevard
Los Angeles, CA
Phone: (323) 666-8666
How it Works: *8:00 PM *sign up to show your video, volunteer to be on a judging team or just sit back and watch. 8:30 (SHARP), we’ll pick the first name and the show will begin. After each screening, the judges confer, and give a score. The video with the highest score becomes our Cabaret winner and will be announced by the evening’s performer.
Video tips: Prepare a video (not exceeding four minutes) on the theme PERSPECTIVE. Any genre is ok but it should be compelling. The digital cabaret welcomes experimental video art, music videos, and conventional narratives.
