CITY
EYE SPECIAL EVENT
5th September 2007 8pm @ Swaythling Neighbourhood
Centre
|
 |
Earlier
this year 6 people joined the City Eye Digital Filmmaking
Course. Alongside a series of focused skills based training
sessions the group also made a short film - and learned and
laughed a lot along the way!
The
resultant short, Death with Dignity, will receive its premiere
screening at City Eye on Wednesday 5 September. This somewhat
irreverent comedy about death and cut price funerals was written,
shot and edited by students of the course with support from
City Eye by way of the Course Leader, Antony Batchelor and
Creative Director, David White. The film was resourced using
City Eye equipment and facilities.
The
screening event is open to all and we hope that in particular
anyone interested in joining a future Digital Filmmaking Course
(the next course starts on 15 September) will come along to
find out more about City Eye, about the course and to grab
the opportunity to talk to the filmmakers and recent graduates
of the last course.
This
is a free event (and we might just throw in a beverage or
two!) but please contact us to book your place as space is
limited.
DATE:
5 September 2007
TIME: 8pm
LOCATION: City Eye, Swaythling Neighbourhood Centre,

SCREENING
EVENT
City
Eye is happy to support this unique one-off screening of Alan Brigand's
11'09"01. This film has not received a release date in the
US and the UK so here is your chance to see this remarkable film.
11'09"01 was
shot on a shoestring budget and against near-impossible odds and
was cinema's first direct response
to the events of September 11 2001. A French television director,
Alain Brigand, had the idea the day after the attacks: 11 film-makers
from 11 countries, 11 short films each lasting 11 minutes, nine
seconds and one frame. Television, he felt, was altogether too reductive
a medium for this moment. The films were to be identical in length;
they were to be co-produced with a local company. They would have
to be finished in time for a first anniversary release; delivered
in the same technical format, to ensure a coherent end-product;
and cost the same whether shot in Burkina-Faso or New York.
Taken from Thursday September 5, 2002 The Guardian
It will be
shown at 7pm at The Friends Meeting House, Ordinance Road in Southampton
and the promoters ask only a £1.50 donation towards the cost
of putting on this event.
