[Frameworks] Looking for Lenses for short throw on 16mm Eiki projectors

2019-04-09 Thread Sabine Gruffat
Hello, I am wondering if anyone can recommend lenses (or sell me lenses) to 
achieve a short throw on a 16mm Eiki slot load projector? I need two ideally.
We're getting ready to do a performance and some of the venues are small. 
Mirrors and magnifying glasses are an option but would rather not.

Any recommendations are appreciated!
Sabine Gruffat

I think there was driving/road-rtipping involved in the making of it, so maybe 
you'll feel that it fits the parameters.

Hi, Kornelia,


Here's a recent film that fits the bill:


Driving Dinosaurs (Emma Piper-Burket, 2019)

An 89 year old marketing gimmick subliminally resurfaces on a lonely road in 
the American west.

Hi all,

I'm looking for travelogue and/or road films made by women filmmakers in 
connection with my postdoctoral project on avant-garde and experimental film 
(no UMO-2018/31/D/HS2/01553).

So far I've been able to track down several works, incl. those mentioned in 
response to Bryan Konefsky's question on experimental road movies, but I'm sure 
there are many more that I'm not aware of. Any thoughts? I'd be grateful for 
any suggestions, also on films that embrace non-mechanical means of 
transportation and revision the concept of mobility - as implied by the broad 
definition of the aforementioned genres. I'm pasting some exemplary titles 
below to give you an idea what I'm looking for.

Thanks and all best,

Kornelia

[Frameworks] Cosmic Rays call for films

2019-10-09 Thread Sabine Gruffat
Hello filmmakers!
I’m writing to spread the word that Cosmic Rays is accepting submissions. This 
year the festival is hosting Naomi Uman and curator and film programmer Rachael 
Rakes. Stay tuned for more announcements about two expanded cinema performances.

Cosmic Rays screens work that:
Experiments with the formal possibilities of film and video.
Explores hybrid forms and the hard-to-describe spaces between filmmaking modes 
and genres.
Speaks with a personal or poetic voice, or explores novel ways of telling 
stories.
Eschews convention and commerce.
Has utopian aspirations and weird friends.

Submit through Film Freeway by December 1st:

Best regards
Sabine Gruffat
