This film series provides a forum for local and independent filmmakers and video artists to share and discuss their work and ideas. Each month we'll screen one or more works and then circle up for an intimate conversation with the artists or guest speaker. We'll focus on "art" films, both abstract and and narrative, primarily by local filmmakers, as well as hard-to-find foreign classics, and new documentaries.

We have also started to organize and attend seminars on various industry topics like how to organize a film festival, comparisons of online distribution channels, how to fundraise for your project, different options for renting equipment in NYC, etc. It depends on what you guys want. Let us know!

This group is open to and for both film lovers and film/video artists. In fact, we really want you guys to bring films (your own or work by others that you want to support) to us that you would like us to screen and get feedback about. Unfinished films are welcome, too. We'd love to be able to provide the outside guidance and/or contacts that enable you to finish your film!

We'll be screening on our own equipment: Oppo Blu-ray/DVD player, Panasonic HD projector, and Da-Lite 87" x 139" Model C ceiling-mounted projection screen with 2-channel PA sound. I'm told that super 8 or 16mm projection might be possible for certain projects as well (we don't own those but maybe they could be provided...).
