The Images festival gets underway this evening, with a fantastic line up of work over the next 10 days. Not the least of which is the first ever Toronto One Take Super 8 Event. Less than one week from today we will premiere 28 new films at the festival (so excited to pick them up from the lab today). Here's the key details of where and when you need to be next Wednesday.
Polish Combatants Hall
206 Beverly Street (at Cecil)
Wednesday April 7th
11pm
Pay What You Can (first come first admitted. no advanced ticketing so don't show up late and be disappointed).
The event is gaining more attention as the filmmakers are anxious to see their work. First time filmmaker (more comfortably known as a writer) Alison Broverman documented her foray into super 8 filmmaking and published this article in today's Toronto Star. It's a great article about the process and experience for a first time OTS8 participant.
While things are getting busy here in Toronto, final preparations are underway for the 4th annual event in Syracuse. Check out their blog for their snazzy new poster and details about their April 10th screening at Funk 'n Waffles. If you can't make it to Syracuse, they'll be webcast streaming the event!
And finally, things are underway in Oberlin for their second S.O.S (Super 8 Oberlin Showcase).
Films are being shot at this moment. Check back here for details about the location and time of the screening on April 23rd.
Whew. Looks to be a really busy month of screenings. Can't wait.
