Chicago Filmmakers assumed responsibility for the festival in 2001, and expanded the size and opened it up to video work as well as film. It is generally 8-10 programs over four days and features roughly 60-70 works from around the world. Aside from the competition programs, there are occasional special presentations of new or old films of note or guest presentations. Screenings take place at Chicago Filmmakers and other venues around mid-June.

    The iotaSalon: "Exteriors"
    Place: TBD
    Date: February 2011 (specific day TBD)

    In our first Salon and public exhibition of the year we are looking to include your masterpieces that evoke the mind of the external world. Garden, vegetation, growth, earth, water, dirt, wind.  A loose interpretation of these terms are the only expectation in order to fit into the vial of "abstract" and "experimental" imagery.

    Please submit now and keep your ear open for when and where the Salon will take place.

  • 2011 Festival of (In)appropriation

    By on

    2011 Festival of (In)appropriation2011 Festival of (In)appropriation
    Call for entries!

    Los Angeles Filmforum invites film and videomakers to take part in the 2011 Festival of (In)appropriation.  Please read all the details below.

    From collage to hip-hop, remix to mash-up, détournement to machinima, the appropriation of preexisting sounds and images has become integral to the creation of new and provocative works of art ? all the more so in the digital era. Artists from diverse backgrounds are taking "found" sounds and images and appropriating them into new works that fundamentally alter the meaning and function of these found objects. The Festival of (In)appropriation, now in its third year, plays on the notion of what an "appropriate" use of a found sound and/or image may be. Since what is considered appropriate always depends on context ? being in the "right" place at the "right" time ? appropriation is by definition the art of the inappropriate ? being in the "wrong" place at the "wrong" time. Indeed, every reuse is, in some way, a productive misuse ? a misuse that we celebrate! When films and videos tear materials from one (con)text and place them in another, they question the limits of what is "appropriate" and thereby open the doors to new ways of seeing, hearing, and thinking. At its best, this act of (in)appropriation may produce revelation that leads viewers to reconsider the relationship between past and present, here and there, truth and lie, intention and subversion.

  • The 2011 Cut and Run European Tour: Call for submissions and venues

    By on

    Announcing Cut and Run’s 2011 Experimental European Tour – Call for Submissions – Call for Venue Proposals

    Cut and Run began in early 2009 in San Francisco, as a single screening event at Artists’ Television Access. It has since evolved into an annual traveling film festival featuring Experimental and Avant-Garde cinema, featuring contemporary and past works.

    C + R celebrates works that deviate from mainstream and traditional cinema, and opt towards authentic, brave, challenging, stylized, alternative and imagined subjects. The call for submissions has no direct set theme. The program themes develop around the sense we make of the selected works, as well as individual sought-out films that provoked and inspired us. In other words, our programs are inspired after we see your work.

    Please send us your 25 min. or less piece on DVD or miniDV tape by mail. Contact us at cutandruntour@gmail.com to obtain address info.

    C + R is also accepting venue proposals for exhibitions for our European Tour. We are seeking venues overseas that are equipped for both Film and Video projection.
