[Frameworks] Blackbox

2017-12-27 Thread Bernard Roddy
"If your film can be viewed online without a password it will
unfortunately be ineligible. A Scottish premiere is a requirement for
UK short films."

That's Kim Knowles at the Edinburgh Film Festival.  It reminds me of a
colleague many years ago who said the faculty weren't interested in a
candidate who had published something.

Why would one make that connection?  Unrestricted online access to a
work classifies it differently than restricted access via password,
but in either case it would be available online.  And the festival
requires that it be available online.  It will be considered in a
format that cannot be available to just anyone.  But the password will
likely be provided to other festivals.

We're in that zone of exclusivity that is both strangely satisfying
but also inexplicably disconcerting.  I have this feeling that the
objective would be articulated as follows: only those committed to a
certain kind of film practice are solicited.  But how to narrow the
submissions without making the work homogenous?

I remember the class I took with him at The School of the Art Institute
almost 30 years ago, "History/Politics/Cinema". I recall his interesting
approach; his emphasis on form as a representation of content, and the
thought-provoking films that he introduced us to that I had not been aware
of. He was approachable and down-to-earth. Thanks for letting us know.

Should anyone wish to learn more about Chuck and his work, they might start the 
new year reading JUMPCUT.
All issues of the journal are archived back to #1 in 1974

What a surprise! I have never met the man in person but I would have liked
to have met him. His recent call for attention to sexual harassment and
assault encouraged me to engage more fully in this forum. I will be sure to
learn more about him and his work, now especially more than ever.

Thank you for letting us know.
