Who is interested?

There will be a very cool first of its kind event/exhibit here in chattanooga this coming August. You should be a part of it. Creative tension at its very finest and most immediate. And if that isn't enough it's also a benefit for a really good cause.

Has anyone ever done a micro movie film lab before? That isn't my term, but i'm borrowing it and i'm using it as slang. i've seen other names for what this is in other cities.

HERE'S HOW IT WORKS -
Basically you make a short movie in 24-48 hours. digital media is best. working in teams makes it challenging. short means anything you know you can completely conceive, shoot, edit and deliver within that timeframe. Short usually means 5 minutes. If you can do more do it!

SITE-SPECIFIC ASSIGNMENT -
In this competition you will be asked to shoot your movie at a skater competition, see the link in the links section. and plan on it being screened with others at an upcoming film event (see link). Everyone who wants to put together a project will be asked to do so in the same timeframe and at the same location. what you do within those two parameters is completely up to you. It can be fiction, documentary, music video...abstract musicavisua loop great!

PUT TOGETHER A TEAM -
So you wanna put together a team or get on someone else's team and try it? its fun as long as you have a digital video camera and editing software that you know how to drive fast!

If you are interested at all in the exhibit event or/and want to hear about the CAMjam competition leave your inquiry here, ok?

ATTN: SKATERS remember you can submit any of your work in every other category. this is only the micromovie category. submit any of your previously completed /current digital projects for screening at the film festival in august. the camjam is not required for skaters unless you just want to do that too.

IMPORTANT NOTE: the micro movie location-assignment that will be used in this benefit competition is time sensitive. participants must be available to begin shooting friday, july1 and saturday, july 2 at the Pink Robots Never Die Skating Competition, have their movie finished by sunday july 3rd. all submissions will be automatically eligible for screening at the upcoming superfantastic august benefit event. (see film festival link) Sorry for the last minute but, you know, that is kind of the point with the way this instant-video-movie-lab deal works
