Filmmaker Magazine, the IFC Center and IndieGoGo present “Where Internet and Film Collide,” a night of screenings and conversation centered around the convergence of filmmaking and web video, Thursday, June 5 at 8:00pm.
Held as part of Internet Week New York and hosted by the IFP, the night will consist of a number of exciting short form works that could only have been created for the web and then discussions with their makers about their creative and production processes.
The program includes several of the most groundbreaking recent examples of this exciting trend, including:
"Green Porno", a series of short films about the sex lives of insects, conceived by and featuring Isabella Rossellini and developed for the Sundance Channel;
work by M ss ng P eces, the Webby-nominated boutique video label that has developed original programming for online distribution, including a collaboration with the legendary Chris Blackwell and an award-winning documentary about the young African inventor William Kamkwamba;
"NYFF45: Part Two", a mix of press conference reportage with original narrative and innovative shooting and editing that signals the re-imagining of film festival journalism;
"The West Side", an urban western set in a unique, alternate universe presented free on the internet as a contemporary version of the serial novel;
"Beyond the Rave", an online serial that heralded the resurgence of one of Hammer Films, one of Britain’s best loved film companies.
In attendance to discuss these films and their unprecedented methods of production and distribution will be Christopher Barry, the Senior Vice President, Digital Media and Business Strategy for Sundance Channel;
Ari Kuschnir and Scott Thrift, founders of M ss ng P eces; Jamie Stuart, director of “NYFF45: Part Two”; Ryan Bilsborrow-Koo and Zachary Leiberman, creators of “The West Side”; and Lance Weiler, who created an extensive game world around “Beyond the Rave.”
