Filmonik Melbourne is an open filmmaking group with monthly open-screen screenings (think open-mic for films), and we're back this January at Eclipse on Tuesday the 27th. It will be our 124th screening and it's our proven mix of immediate, spontaneous, crafty, fun, inventive and weird short films. You should expect comedies, a bit of drama, animation maybe, there's generally one suspense/thriller, one music video, some fun trash, horror or documentary but sometimes we don't even know what will be playing. Films are generally under 5 minutes to keep things fresh and fun, followed by a quick QA with the director to hear about the process. Enjoy the networking, meet the artisans, recruit for your next short film, hang out, DETAILS:
Admission $13+fees = $13.83.
Tickets at the door if still available ($15 cash exact change, or Square)
FILMS UNRATED (18+ by default). Content may offend.
TUESDAY JANUARY 27 at Eclipse Cinema 32 Wellington Street, Collingwood.
This is an accessible venue, DDA-compliant.
6pm start. Please arrive in advance so we can start at 6:15pm at the latest. Eclipse is Licensed to serve a range of quality wines & craft beers and has homemade Choc Tops, popcorn or sweets.
FILMMAKERS:
Our open-screen get pretty popular these days so the best practice is submitting in advance at filmonik.com.au/submit-your-film or [email protected] so we can reserve you a spot in the program. Films under 5-minutes get close-to-automatic entry, and anything over may get held up until there's a quiet month. A quick QA with the host follows each film. Organize your own premiere with us or run a cheeky pre-premiere of your festival film. Guidelines here: filmonik.com.au/how-to-screen.
Filmonik is part of the worldwide Kino movement active in 30+ cities around the world since 1999.
