Hi All, I am currently developing a magazine celebrating emerging film-makers. My team and I will be holding screenings and symposiums on a monthly basis in London. These will be backed by the monthly publication which will be launched at each event. We are currently looking for contributors in a number of capacities. Specifically short films, or extracts (to be screened and discussed at the event and in the publication) articles (that explore film/moving image) and reviews. If any of you are interested in getting involved, we would be delighted to hear from you.

Re: [Frameworks] Constructing A Foley / Sound Studio
I recommend you contact Jay Beck at Carleton College. He's been developing an exciting sounds studies program there (within film) and I believe foley is a part of it. https://apps.carleton.edu/curricular/cams/courses/ On Fri, Nov 7, 2014 at 11:34 PM, Dave Tetzlaff wrote: > Matt: > > I doubt you'll find good models at other schools.

[Frameworks] Ohio State narrative filmmaking position
All, I wanted to call to your attention the current open-rank search for a tenured or tenure-track professor in narrative filmmaking at (the) Ohio State University. This hire is the second position directly related to the nascent Moving-Image Production Program, one of our Executive Dean’s signature initiatives. (My hire last year was the first position directly related to the MIP program.) The program is designed to teach students in four modes—animation, documentary, experimental, and narrative—stressing the connections between these modes. The search committee is open to a broad understanding of what narrative is or might mean, so I would encourage any of you whose work engages with narrative in any way to consider applying. The full position listing is online here: https://academicjobsonline.org/ajo/jobs/4866 Columbus is a very interesting place, with a solid (and growing) experimental film community and incredible resources including the Wexner Center for the Arts. I’ve been here less than a year, but I’ve found it to be a very supportive atmosphere within the University and a stimulating environment both inside and out of the the institution. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me directly. Best, Roger p.s. For those of you who are scholars instead of or in addition to makers, note that we’re also hiring an avant-garde film historian in the Department of the History of Art. The listing can be found at the link below under History of Art: http://artsandsciences.osu.edu/facultypositions Roger Beebe Associate Professor Department of Art The Ohio State University ___ FrameWorks mailing list FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks
[Frameworks] High profile allies petition judge on behalf of Lawrence Brose
Dear friends and supporters of Lawrence Brose, As we approach the sentencing date of November 25, Lawrences attorneys have submitted their report to the Court. That report contains nearly a hundred letters of appeal for leniency in sentencing. Phil Fairbanks, a staff reporter at the Buffalo News has been following this case and the papers submitted to the Court. His latest report in the Buffalo News underscores the importance of the support everyone has been contributing to Lawrences defense. Lawrence felt this article was a reflection of support coming from his community, for which he is humbly grateful. Here is a link to the article for you to read and share: http://www.buffalonews.com/city-region/police-courts/high-profile-allies-petition-judge-on-behalf-of-brose-20141106 Sincerely, The Lawrence Brose Defense Fund Team ** We still need to remind everyone that freedom from this prosecution has cost Lawrence dearly, financially and otherwise, and of the need to continue to raise significant funds for his mounting debt. To make tax deductible donations to Lawrences defense please log on to http://ncrj.org/lawrence-brose/ and donate to the Artist Fund for Lawrence Brose. We encourage everyone to visit the defense fund website to catch up on what is new, view the artwork that has been donated for sale and read the compelling letters of support from notable people who have voiced their outrage and concern for what is happening to Lawrence. www.lawrencebroselegaldefensefund.com Thank you for your continued support.
