Hello all, I am forwarding Light Cone's new open call for Atelier 105, a Paris-based residency program for the post-production of experimental film projects. The deadline is June 13th!
Best, Mariya ------------------------------ *ATELIER 105* *Post-production residencies for video* *CALL FOR PROJECTSSECOND COMMISSION OF 2022* Since October 2014, Light Cone hosts artist residencies dedicated to the video-based post-production of films that belong to the realm of experimental cinema, with the aim of supporting approximately 10 projects per year. The residency is adapted to the workflow of experimental filmmakers, and, therefore, eligibility criteria are deliberately kept open. Short, medium, as well as feature-length films are welcome, on the condition that shooting is completed and editing is already advanced, with or without the backing of an independent production company. While the project must fit within the category of experimental cinema, no other criteria (length, nationality of filmmaker, etc.) will be imposed. *EQUIPMENT AND TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE* The Atelier 105 residency seeks to give experimental filmmakers access to professional post-production facilities that are often out of their reach. A fully-equipped workspace located in Light Cone's premises gives artists access to a film scanner for the digitization of 16mm & 35mm film in 2K & 4K, an editing station, a color-correction monitor, as well as dedicated computers for encoding video files and DCPs. This equipment has been assembled by professionals to allow filmmakers to have the best possible tools at their disposal. The filmmaker-in-residence also has full access to Light Cone's documentation center and screening room. Light Cone's technical manager, *Clovis Stocchetti*, who is specialized in digital post-production is on hand to assist the filmmaker. Filmmakers are free to work alone or accompanied by their technicians. At the beginning of the residency, the technical manager can offer training in Media Composer, Final Cut Pro, After Effects, or Resolve. If necessary, he can advise selected filmmakers in advance to make sure their projects are compatible with the available software. *ARTISTIC ACCOMPANIMENT* One of our main goals is to facilitate exchange, to share experience and to create a productive working environment for filmmakers. Beyond technical, logistical and practical assistance, the Light Cone team (made up of filmmakers and/or programmers) also aims to offer artistic guidance and to offer a genuine platform for experimental creation. Filmmakers are encouraged to consult with our team concerning technical or artistic issues, as well as general advice, and to show them the different stages of the project. The selection committee is composed of four permanent Light Cone members: - *Gisèle Rapp-Meichler*, president - *Emmanuel Lefrant*, director - *Eleni Gioti*, co-director - *Mariya Nikiforova*, coordinator of Atelier 105 and two external members who are picked among the programmers or filmmakers working with Light Cone (their mandate cannot be renewed). The external committee members for the second session of 2022 are: - *Elena Duque*, filmmaker, programmer at (S8) Mostra de Cinema Periférico (A Coruña) and at the Sevilla European Film Festival, writer, teacher - *Rui Mendes*, programmer of short films at IndieLisboa International Film Festival *PUBLIC SCREENING* Light Cone welcomes filmmakers to an alternative space for artistic creation based on experimentation and exchange. A Scratch/Atelier 105 public screening with a selection of films produced during the 2021-2022 residencies will take place in 2022. *HOW TO APPLY* Submissions are now open for the second residency session of 2022 (September 1 to December 23). *The submission deadline is Monday, June 13, 2022, at midnight.* *(However, please note that the session will be closed when the quota of 30 submissions has been reached)* To submit a project, the candidate must subscribe to the organization by paying a fee of 30€.
