Kino Kabaret – Montreal,Vienna, Sydney, Berlin…..
June 5th 2009 02:46
Throughout the world Kino Kabaret continues to grow with offshoots in Vienna, Berlin, Bratislava and Sydney all growing from origins based in Montreal, Canada. As films are made specifically for Kino, each is a world premiere, Add to this live entertainment, an open bar and buffet and you couldn’t get a better night out. Everything wrapped up in one neat little package.
Participants are given access to the KINO LAB, a space fully kitted out with cameras, editing stations and filmmaking equipment. Instead of a whole month, they are given only 48 hours to make films.
Kino Sydney is part of an international network born in Montréal in 1999. It is now global, with groups in Canada, the US, France, Germany, the UK, South Africa as well as Australia.
All applications for the Sydney event must be received by 22nd June 2009!
In Vienna, the next screening of short films will take place on Thursday, 18th of June at 9.00 PM at Schikaneder. Free entry, donations welcome. They accept all films under 5 minutes without prior selection with those longer 5 minutes watched selected before the screening. In both cases you should send an email to film@kino5.net with your name and contact details, the name and length of the film.
And now for the rules and regulations which unfortunately always come.
APPLICATION PROCESS
Kino Kabaret is open to participants 18 years of age and over, of all backgrounds, abilities, skills and experience.
There is a non-refundable $15 participation fee per 48-hour session, to be paid in cash when you hand in your application or paid by direct deposit (see app. form for details). All participants get free entry to their screening (normally $15).
Each 48-hour session culminates in a screening and party, during which the results of this experiment are presented to an appreciative audience. Sign up for one, two or all three 48-hour sessions!
Day 1: 10 am - rock up to the production meeting: come with an idea or listen to what's on offer, come with a team or join one on the day, volunteer your skills or learn some new ones. Once you've picked a project and booked your equipment, the Kino Lab and the entire city are yours to play with.
Day 2: 6:30 pm - you're nervously eyeing the computer screen... your film is still exporting to DVD and meanwhile first drinks are being consumed as the screening gets into gear: will you make it in time?
Day 3: you haven't slept, you're hungover, but you have a great idea, you tear yourself out of bed, call in sick and run down to the next session's production meeting for another go...
What makes Kino Kabaret special is its mix of participants: amateurs mix with award-winners, artists mix with technicians, and locals mix with international participants. Participants from Kino chapters around the world are invited to participate. These established filmmakers mentor local teams and infuse the sessions with their own unique perspectives, skills and culture.
There are places reserved for people with a disability. People with a disability applying to take part in Kino Kabaret benefit from free registration and can request access services to facilitate their participation
