The Experimental Film Program
The New Brunswick Film Co-op is initiating an exciting new filmmaking program aimed at fostering a growing community of experimental filmmakers. The Program will take place from September 2007 – March 2008, with monthly classes. There is no fee to participate in the program.The goal of this program is to encourage NB Film Co-op members to attempt alternate forms of filmmaking through varied media choices, processes, and narrative content. The NB Film Co-op supports the production of all genres of film by its membership (animation, hand-processed, silent films, documentary, drama, thriller, etc).
To achieve our goal of fostering and developing a growing community of experimental filmmakers, the program will expose members to historical and contemporary contexts for experimental filmmaking through film theory and screenings. Participants will also learn about experimental film and filmmakers through hands-on projects, a visiting artist series, and workshops.
All participants will produce a 1-5 minute film through the course.
The Experimental Film Program is open to all New Brunswick Film Co-op members who have some filmmaking experience. Ten applicants will be selected to participate.
