  • TIE 2009: Call for entries

    By on

    TIE's 2009 film selection and programming is currently in process with several of the programs and films already selected. TIE celebrates it's 10th year in 2009 with several major exhibitions at new international venues. The highly innovative programming follows TIE's recent events in Argentina, Uruguay, Canada and the U.S. TIE seeks films that challenge popular and conventional modes of the moving image. From difficult and hand-made films to extraordinarily radical and obscure compositions, TIE selects only outstanding celluloid cinema from the outer-spaces of contemporary screen-culture. If a submitted film is selected, the exhibition print must be film (8mm, Super-8, 9.5mm, 16mm, 35mm). All lengths are considered. Films from any era and year of completion are considered. A nominal entry fee is required. Work from any country is considered. Films are considered for exhibition in various TIE festivals and programs on an ongoing basis. Therefore, filmmakers are highly encouraged to submit their package as soon as possible and as a preview copy is ready to send out.

  • CTEQ Annotations - Call for Contributions

    By on

    On a weekly basis, the Melbourne Cinémathèque screens films of historical, aesthetic and/or cultural significance that otherwise would not receive a public screening.

    In order to provide a critical context for these screenings, "annotations" on films have traditionally been published in one form or another. Since April 2000, "CTEQ Annotations on Film" have been published electronically in Senses of Cinema and in hard copy for
    those without Internet access. The purpose of these annotations is to encourage appreciation of a film by highlighting details of its history, providing a "reading" of its aesthetic and so on.

     Senses of Cinema and CTEQ Annotations on Film invite writers to contribute notes on the films listed below. Articles should follow the guidelines set out by Senses of Cinema and should be 800–1000 words in length. We ask that you reply to this invitation with an expression of interest in a film that you would like to write on as soon as possible. Email Adrian Danks at [email protected]. We will then match up writers with specific films (as there may be several people interested in one film).

    Annotations on the following films will be published in the next issue of Senses of Cinema. The deadline for written material is January 18.

    À BOUT DE SOUFFLE (Jean-Luc Godard) 1960
    THE RIVER (Jean Renoir) 1951
    BLACK NARCISSUS (Michael Powell & Emeric Pressburger) 1947

    (Reyhan Harmanci, SF Chronicle)

    As practicing artists, the curators of Night Vision seek to provide
    a venue for film/video artists who use experimental techniques to push
    the boundaries of traditional cinema. In addition to our group shows,
    we offer an opportunity for artists to have solo screenings of their
    work, which is a rare opportunity for many emerging artists. In
    addition to showing experimental film and video art we also showcase
    work that involves live music or sound, performance and installation.
    All shows end with a Q&A between the artists, curators and
    audience.

    that encourages the development of non-traditional performance with a
    focus on collaboration and exploration. Established in 1985, Climate is

    Heidt, formerly of Magic Theatre.
