Stray Cinema - Open Source Collaborative films
Stray Cinema is a pioneering, internationally renowned open source film project. It is amongst the worlds first open source film projects, and it is also the first project of this nature to incorporate a real-world screening event. With each event, raw footage is filmed in a different place, then anyone around the world can freely download this footage and create their own edit of the film. These new creations are then uploaded to the website and users vote for their favourites. A rapidly growing community of people around the globe have made submissions to Stray Cinema. We will be showing "A Remixed Story of Stray Cinema" a short doc about the Stray Cinema event in Barcelona.
Man With a Movie Camera: The Global Remake
Man With a Movie Camera: The Global Remake is a participatory video shot by people around the world who are invited to record images
interpreting the original script of Vertov's Man With A Movie Camera, upload them to http://dziga.perrybard.net/ where software
developed specifically for this project archives, sequences and streams the submissions as a film. As people can upload the same
shot more than once infinite versions of the film are possible. We will be showing an extract from the most recent footage.
Silver
A new collaboration between film maker and artist Monika Dutta and composer and sound artist Jake Harries has so far produced the two short films Silver and Magnesium
The works have been made in response to the particular environment of the derbyshire peaks and represent the artists' desire to convey experiences of being in the landscape as opposed to more direct and illustrative responses that may be more about landscape
We will be also be showcasing a selection of short docs made at Access Space by Sheffield filmmakers Laurence Alexander and Richard Bolam.
