Re: [Frameworks] DVD to 16mm

2012-01-19 Thread Herb
If you go with this option, and would prefer a positive right away,
invert the lcd image to negative. The OSX key combination is
Control-Option-Command-8. Have done this with bw stock and it turned
out quite nicely.

 Hey,

 So I want to get some footage from my Criterion DVD of L'Atalante onto
 some already grainy expired film. Quality isn't a big issue but I want to
 avoid that weird scan line effect.

 Any cheap suggestions?

Hi frameworks,

I have a rather large (4 hour) audio file I want to send fellow students of a 
lecture over the web. Any suggestions on how to do this? I have looked into 
things like media fire and such but they have quite limited upload fees unless 
you want to pay. 

Thanks
Kevin

Kodak restructuring is a good thing, as the current model is clearly not
feasible.

Bankruptcy court protection will allow Kodak to carve up the company and
sell intellectual property, but also get out from
under their debt obligation to employee pensions. Meanwhile, Perez and the
executive team is stuffing money in their pockets.

The motion picture division will likely continue in some shape or form, and
would probably benefit from Eastman Chemical or
a similar company coming in to manufacture and sell the product. MP product
would be better off if separated from Perez's
Kodak.

That won't help the current situation--we need to encourage students and 
everyone else to buy as much film as they can right now, to reinforce the 
demand and promote the viability of shooting projects on film. 
 
Tell your students that instead of asking mommy and daddy for that new, 
expensive (soon to be obsolete) digital cam, that they should ask for a big 
film stock budget and shoot their project on real film.

In class last evening one of my students hoped out loud that part of the 
looming bankruptcy would involve giving away film stock for student projects. 
I'll keep my fingers crossed.

[Frameworks] It's Not Really About Workers and Leaders: Recent Short Videos by Les LeVeque

It’s Not Really About Workers and Leaders: Recent Short Videos by Les
LeVeque

Sunday, January 22nd at 7:30pm

Les LeVeque in attendance for discussion with media artists/theorists Keith
Sanborn and Thomas Zummer.

Union Docs ($9 suggested donation)

322 Union Ave, Brooklyn 11206

Influential video artist Les LeVeque has been pushing boundaries in single
channel and installation work since the early 90’s. He joins us Sunday
to present
recent video work
http://t.ymlp269.net/wwhsanaejeuaoauwqadamwjw/click.phpwhere various
forms of the experiential are placed in relation to the
social, political and cultural resonances of appropriated media in pursuit
of a multiplicity of narratives. A re-edit of the Workers Leaving The
Lumière’s Factory, a flicker exploration of Lenin’s passing, and an ambient
music video constructed with archival footage of Mao Zedong are amongst
pieces that will be screened. LeVeque will be paired in conversation
following with media artists/theorists Keith Sanborn and Thomas Zummer.
This event is curated with Adam Khalil.

Hi Tim,

In this case, they'll all be shooting on film. Keeping my fingers crossed was a 
reference to the generosity that Kodak has shown towards student filmmakers in 
the past, and that it continues to be something we can look forward to. I don't 
see Cannon, Panasonic, 
Red, or other video manufacturers doing anywhere near as much to put 
state-of-the-art technology in the hands of budding cinema artists.

[Frameworks] Call for Entries : Deep Leap Microcinema / Kill Your Idols / New Landscapes / The Way People Talk

2012-01-19 Thread Jesse Malmed
*CALL FOR ENTRIES:*

Announcing, formally, the return (and relocation) of the DEEP LEAP
MICROCINEMA http://deepleap.net/.

Hello, Chicago, Hello, World:

*KILL YOUR IDOLS* - a program of works that take as their source
(conceptually or materially) the history of avant-garde moving images. How
does the use of one's favorite Brakhage film as found footage change and
charge the politics and poetics of appropriation? What are the limits of
re-enaction? How does the acknowledgement of a canon within an avant-garde
practice impact new makers?
*DUE 02-02-12*

*NEW LANDSCAPES* - a program of contemporary looks at landscape. What's
new about new landscapes? What constitutes a new landscape? How do
artists apply new ways of thinking and creating to old landscapes? Old ways
of thinking and creating to new landscapes? A long, steady 16 mm single
take of Second Life? A gif of a Peter Hutton film? Contemporary ghost
towns? Malls that are made to look like towns?
*DUE 03-03-12*

*THE WAY PEOPLE TALK* - a program of works that respond (consciously or
not) to the phrase the way people talk. So: accents, ways/means, talking,
chatting, dialogue, why you said what you said, a memory of a conversation,
labored speech giving, why you say what you say, people, language, how I
heard you what you said, c.
*DUE 04-04-12*

PLEASE SUBMIT SHORT AVANT WORKS AND PERFORMANCE PROPOSALS (LOCAL) TO:

deepleapmicrocin...@gmail.com (vimeo, youtube, etc. links encouraged)
//or
Jesse Malmed / 806 N. Bishop Ave. / Apt. 2A / Chicago, IL 60642

Works will be shown in Chicago and on subsequent tours.

Looking forward!

JM

Please forward to your media-making circles.

i dont think you have Husets Biograf in copenhagen on the list. They are
running a handsome left handed Bauer (i think) in the booth. which they run
on quite a regular basis.

contact:  Jack Stevenson at (jack.steven...@mail.dk) who you need to add to
your distributor list if he's not already on it.
