IMPROBABLE MOVIES CALL FOR ENTRIES
What would you film if you had an unlimited budget?
Submit a one sheet poster and a 400 – 600 word plot by 11:59pm on Sunday, May 5, 2013 via http://futuretenant.org/events/improbable-movies-call-for-entries.
The production of a film is one of the most complicated and costly structures in art production. We want to know, if independent filmmakers could have the budgets of Hollywood blockbusters, what would movies look like?
To find out, Future Tenant will partner with Greg Pierce -Custodian for The Orgone Archive and Assistant Curator of Film and Video at The Andy Warhol Museum- to curate an exhibition that showcases the best movies that will never be made. A mixed media exhibition of everything but themovies themselves.
This is a call for individual or collective projects about improbable movies:
Additionally you may also submit:
Soundtrack: original recording, minimum 3 minutes long. (If selected the soundtracks will be burned into a CD and be presented with the rest of the project.)
Costume: sketches or drawings of the costume design or concept (If selected, the costume design materials the artist(s) should mail or take them to the gallery to be displayed with the rest of the project.)
This call closes at 11:59pm on Sunday, May 5, 2013.
Projects will be selected by Greg Pierce in collaboration with Future Tenant staff and be displayed at the gallery on 819 Penn Ave. Pittsburgh, PA., from June 7 to July 14, 2013 during the Three Rivers Arts Festival.
Selected participants will be notified by phone or email by Friday, May 17, 2013. Selection results will be also published on futuretenant.org
Future Tenant will cover the cost of printing the posters and plot lines for the exhibition. Selected participants should submit printing quality files by Tuesday, May 21, 2013.
This call is open to everyone.
