Sono proprietario di un bar e dispongo di un tavolo da biliardo semi-professionale. Sto creando un gruppo WhatsApp di giocatori amatoriali di biliardo americano pool/carambola, per la maggior parte debuttanti. Cerco persone disposte a unirsi al gruppo per giocare e divertirsi nel tempo libero, il pomeriggio oppure la sera in ogni giorno. Per stimolare l'impegno di ogni giocatore, abbiamo pattuito che il vincitore di ogni "mini-torneo" organizzato nei vari giorni giochi gratis e non paghi la tariffa di tempo per il periodo di gioco (un'ora di gioco costa 10€, ma viene di volta in volta frazionata in base al periodo di gioco effettivo). Il locale si trova in zona nord di Milano, stazione Greco-Pirelli, università Bicocca. Chiunque dovesse essere davvero interessato a partecipare e unirsi al mio gruppo, non esiti a contattarmi. Cerco persone serie e disposte solamente a divertirsi, senza puntare mazzette grazie mille. Antonio

### **ITA** ### **Kino Movement Milano** in collaborazione con il Centro Culturale **Slow Mill** organizza il quarto Kino Kabaret di Milano. ### **MOVIMENTO “KINO”** Kino è un movimento cinematografico internazionale, consistente nel fare film senza budget, in uno spirito di mutuo aiuto, non concorrenza, libertà e benevolenza. Il suo motto è: “Fai bene con niente, fai meglio con poco, ma fallo ora”. Questo movimento è iniziato a Montreal, Quebec (Canada) nel febbraio 1999 con Kino Montreal e ora conta circa 100 cellule attive in tutto il mondo. I partecipanti – che sono chiamati i Kinoïtes (i Kinetici) – si incontrano in due tipi di eventi, gli Screenings mensili e i Kino Kabarets, per realizzare cortometraggi in un arco di tempo limitato, che va da 24, 48 ore a pochi giorni. Aperti sia ai professionisti che ai dilettanti, questi eventi sono spazi di creazione, senza censure o concorrenza, che consentono sia ai dilettanti di migliorarsi, sia ai professionisti di approfondire la propria ricerca artistica. Ipartecipanti al **Kino Kabaret di Milano** quindi, cineasti e attori, si riuniranno per realizzare cortometraggi in 48 ore. Questi film saranno poi presentati direttamente al pubblico alla fine dello scadere del tempo a disposizione. Per maggiori informazioni leggere i **[Principi ufficiali dei gruppi che affermano di appartenere al movimento Kino](https://www.slowmill.it/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Principi-ufficiali-Kino-Kabaret.pdf)**. ### **Programma del weekend:** **Ritrovo: 13 marzo ore 18.00** I cineasti e le cineaste (regia, direzione della fotografia, montaggio, sceneggiatura, suono, trucco, scenografia, musiche) e gli attori e le attrici si ritroveranno il 13 marzo alle ore 18.00 per registrarsi all’evento e avere i dettagli sui cortometraggi da girare. Possono essere squadre già formate oppure squadre estemporanee che si incontrano al ritrovo e decidono di collaborare insieme. E’ necessario che chiunque abbia la propria attrezzatura. I film possono venire realizzati con qualsiasi camera capace di realizzare video in Full HD, smartphone compresi. **Consegna lavori: 15 marzo ore 19.00** I cortometraggi, della durata massima di 5 minuti (tassativi), dovranno essere consegnati nella loro forma completa al responsabile di Kino, entro l’orario stabilito, il quale provvederà a confermare l’avvenuta ricezione e l’inserimento nella scaletta di proiezione. **Proiezione finale: 15 marzo ore 21.00** La proiezione dei cortometraggi avverrà alla presenza di tutte le squadre e di un pubblico di interessati. Seguirà successivamente un dibattito libero tra i Kinetici e il pubblico per poter adempiere allo spirito di Kino: è attraverso la collaborazione tra i suoi membri che Kino trova il suo vero scopo: motivare, imparare e ispirare. Il responsabile del Kino Movement Milano, **Mateo Çili**, autore cinematografico, attore, regista e insegnante di recitazione, sarà a disposizione durante tutto il periodo delle 48 ore per poter aiutare i gruppi a realizzare al meglio i propri film. Gli spazi del centro culturale Slow Mill saranno disponibili come base per chiunque necessitasse di avere un appoggio per lasciare le attrezzature, mettere in carica le batterie, realizzare il montaggio, ecc… oppure semplicemente per rifocillarsi. Per potersi candidare come singoli o come squadra, scrivere una mail a **info@slowmill.it** elencando i membri della squadra e le mansioni, oppure, in caso di singoli, comunicando il ruolo che si intende esercitare. **ENG** ### **Kino Movement Milan** in collaboration with the **Slow Mill** Cultural Center presents the fourth Kino Kabaret of Milan. **“KINO” MOVEMENT** Kino is an international film movement based on making films with no budget, in a spirit of mutual support, non-competition, freedom, and goodwill. Its motto is: *“Do well with nothing, do better with little, but do it now.”* This movement began in Montreal, Quebec (Canada) in February 1999 with Kino Montreal, and now includes around 100 active cells worldwide. Participants – called Kinoïtes (the Kinetics) – meet during two types of events: monthly Screenings and Kino Kabarets, to create short films within a limited time frame, ranging from 24 to 48 hours, or a few days. Open to both professionals and amateurs, these events are creative spaces without censorship or competition, allowing amateurs to improve and professionals to deepen their artistic exploration. At the Milan Kino Kabaret, filmmakers and actors will gather to make short films in 48 hours. These films will then be shown directly to the public at the end of the time limit. For more information, read the official Principles of the groups claiming to be part of the Kino movement. *** **Weekend Schedule:** **Meeting: March 13th at 6:00 PM** Filmmakers (directing, cinematography, editing, screenwriting, sound, makeup, set design, music) and actors will meet on March 13th at 6:00 PM to register for the event and get the details about the short films to be made. Teams can be pre-formed or spontaneously assembled on site. Everyone must bring their own equipment. Films can be made with any camera capable of recording Full HD video, including smartphones. **Submission: March 15th at 7:00 PM** The short films, with a *strict* maximum length of 5 minutes, must be submitted in their final form to the Kino coordinator by the set time. The coordinator will confirm receipt and inclusion in the screening schedule. **Final Screening: March 15th at 9:00 PM** The screening will take place in the presence of all the teams and an interested audience. A free discussion between the Kinetics and the public will follow, in line with the spirit of Kino: through collaboration among its members, Kino fulfills its true purpose—to motivate, learn, and inspire. The coordinator of Kino Movement Milan, Mateo Çili, filmmaker, actor, and acting teacher, will be available throughout the 72 hours to assist teams in making the best films possible. The Slow Mill cultural center spaces will be available as a base for anyone needing a place to store equipment, charge batteries, edit footage, etc., or simply to grab a bite and relax. To apply as an individual or as a team, send an email to **info@slowmill.it**, listing team members and their roles, or—if applying individually—specify the role you’d like to take on.

✨ Nate con la camicia… personalizzata ✨ Hai una camicia semplice di cotone? oppure in alternativa una t-shirt? Perfetto. Sta per diventare tutt’altro che semplice. In questo workshop giochiamo con strass scintillanti, bottoni coloratissimi, toppe termoadesive e dettagli sorprendenti per trasformare una camicia bianca, nera o di jeans in un capo super personale, creativo e pieno di carattere. Non serve saper cucire come una stilista né avere competenze tecniche: basta voglia di divertirsi, sperimentare e lasciare spazio alla fantasia. Mischiamo, proviamo, attacchiamo, cambiamo idea, aggiungiamo un tocco in più. Qui non esiste “troppo”, esiste solo “wow”. Sarà un momento leggero, creativo e pieno di energia, dove ogni camicia racconta una storia diversa — la tua. Perché nascere con la camicia è fortuna. Personalizzarla è pura magia. 💫 Tu porta solo la tua camicia la voglia di rilassarti e un bel sorriso al resto ci penso io ☕🙂 Gruppo whatsapp : https://chat.whatsapp.com/JPeImG8EK1P82157K4izWP?mode=wwt Massimo 6 posti! puoi inviare la quota di prenotazione con PayPal o Satispay o bonifico per prenotare il tuo posto. 🫰🏻Contributo di partecipazione 15€ compreso di tutti i materiali, la mia guida, acqua al tavolo e caffè di benvenuto ☕ se gradito. 🙏🏻Ti prego di confermare la tua presenza entro venerdì 13 marzo per poter confermare il tavolo.
