Filmonik Melbourne is an open filmmaking group with monthly open-screen screenings. It's like an open mic, but for films. Meet at Eclipse on Tuesday November 24 for our 133rd screening. It's our 13-year proven mix of immediate, spontaneous, crafty, fun, inventive and weird short films. You should expect comedies, a bit of drama, animation from time to time, there's generally one suspense/thriller, the occasional music video, some quick and fun trashy comedy, horror or documentary. Most times we don't even know what will be playing. Films are generally under 8 minutes to keep things fast paced and fun, followed by a QA with the director to hear about the process. Enjoy the networking, meet the artisans, recruit for your next short film, hang out,

FILMMAKERS:
Our open-screen gets pretty popular these days so the best practice is submitting in advance at filmonik.com.au/submit-your-film or [email protected] and we can reserve you a spot in the program. Films under 5 minutes get close-to-automatic entry, 5-10 minutes films are scheduled first-come first-serve until the allocated time is full. Anything over 10 minutes goes into a queue and gets held up until there's a quiet month, with quality control applying to these films. A 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. There are no submission fees, but everyone is asked to buy a ticket as explained in our Entry Fee Disclaimer filmonik.com.au/entry-fee-disclaimer/.
Filmonik is part of the worldwide Kino movement active in 30+ cities around the world since 1999 but we're fully autonomous, fully Aussie.
