Re: [Frameworks] Film Festival Blues

[Dante Fresse]

Film festival proliferation is a good thing for me, but focusing on the
next time increase in my opinion isn’t the right thing to do. As a young
filmmaker I find competitive process of selecting to be an opportunity for
growth and scarcity in this industry and that is an excellent way to learn
how to use opportunities where you can get a chance to talk to succeeding
artists.

What do y’all think about this?

 Dear all,

 I am currently working on a research project that I am hoping will
 result in a curated program and/or essay. I am looking for experimental
 film and video art work that engages with, counters, or tries to reimagine
 relationships between UAVs, military violence and vision, the war on
 terror, aerial surveillance, hobby-drones, etc.

 If you have any recommendations, please feel free to reply-all or
 respond off-list.

 Thanks for your suggestions!
