Art Walk

A few months ago I had the pleasure of checking out an interactive art installation in NYC by artist Ernesto Neto. I was blown away by how cool it was and how kid friendly it was. My GF's nephew Dean gives us a guided tour of the exhibit while the sounds of Casino Versus Japan transport us back to our childhood and the sense of wonder it must feel as a child to experience such a work of art.

Streaming Festival Student-Edition Invitation Card 2009, originally uploaded by The ART of Ryan Seslow Retrospective.

Ironic that in my previous post I praise the very artist who was kind enough to feature my student works in a online streaming festival he was curating. What am I talking about? The streaming festval is a platform for college level Art students (undergraduate and graduate) to exhibit, prepare, speak out and receive feedback for their works that examine the medium of video and experimental film. Ryan Seslow, the amazing prolific artist, has chosen some truly original pieces of video/audio art to be featured in this very cool concept including some of my early NYU films. The films will be streaming from November 13-19th here so please enjoy some streaming awesomeness.

Transcending Twitter Potential

"Transcending Situational Potential"
by theongoingrms

Ryan Seslow is an amazing multi-disciplined artists and professor who I've had the pleasure of meeting via the magical social networking tool, Twitter. Ryan was one of the earliest people I began to follow and he instantly blew my mind with a plethora of amazing artistic content. I also became fascinated with his personal artistic works which include a wide variety of Warhol-esque techniques and cultural references on iconic touchstones. I could go on and on about Ryan's art but am more inclined to direct you to his insane Flickr page which gives you more than a glimpse into this prolific artist's body of work.

"Transcending Situational Potential" is a new short art film Ryan made that is extremely evocative and insightful about the birth of creative impulses. It's a surreal journey of complicated ideas but if you focus and pay attention, I guarantee you will be able to relate to your own creative urges. As Professor Universe and the fragmented personality soliloquize, I was mesmerized by the images that the words evoked. My favorite section of the film is entitled "Expression is in Motion" in which Ryan dissects footage of a crowd of people walking down a street as an omniscient voice muses on in poetic verse. As the images slowly unfurl and the movement grinds to a near halt, we begin to see subtle distortions in the footage. As if they were waves radiating from invisible shadows, Ryan's beautifully shows us the potential in all of us even in the simplest subtle of movements.

#IFPFilmweek Roundup

I had the privilege of attending IFP Filmmaker Week, winning tickets courtesy of the amazing independent crowd-sourcing fundraiser company IndieGoGo via Twitter (thank you social media), and I must say there were some interesting thoughts worth sharing on the current state of independent film culture. For those unfamiliar with the event or the organization, IFP is a nonprofit company that has evolved into the largest organization of independent filmmakers, and is also the premier advocate for them. IFP film week gathers independent filmmakers, distributors, producer, critics, lawyers and anyone from the gamut of the indie film-making world, putting them in panels to discuss a wide variety of topics. I did my best to live tweet the panels I thought were interesting, but due to lack of wifi and bad cellular reception I was only able to quote a few of the speakers. I'll do my best to recap some of the important points that kept coming up.

Building your audience is key! That, above all, was the strongest and clearest message to the independent community. "The beauty of the internet is it's limitless bounds, we can do anything with it." said Gary Hustwit, director of Helvetica, talking about his internet following and how the number of people on his email list has helped foster his films. "Facebook, Twitter it's all part of making the film, it doesn't stop after the film is done, it's what allows me to make the next film. And don't forget what we are making has value to websites, they're looking for cool content" talking about the trailer for his new documentary "Objectified" being featured on Gizmodo.

"You have to find established audiences, tap into them and bring them into your domain" said Bladimiar Norman of 42 west, a full-service public-relations firm for your film. "Drilling your content into crowds that are relevant to your film will have the biggest impact." Talking at the same panel, Crowd Sourcing: Building Fans, Bloggers, & Press Allies, IndieGoGo founder Slava Rubin told the crowd of up and coming filmmakers, "The ones who are successful are the ones who take action and take advantage of the tools available them" referring perhaps to the many easy tools sites like Indiegogo offer, including Twitter/Facebook integration, setting up screenings and handling crowd sourced funds.

One of the best panels I attended was "The Times, They Are A-Changin" with Ted Hope, Christine Vachon, Lance Weiler and Kenneth Woo, where the main focus was again the power of audience building and the benefits engaging your audience can reap. "It's important to build your audience before making your first feature, you need to think about it as part of preproduction" Ted Hope talking about the power of social media and twitter, and how social networks had propelled his next film "Super" with Rainn Wilson, Ellen Page and directed by James Gunn based on their collective number of followers on Twitter (Ted has 2 fantastic blogs, Truly Free Film and Let's Make Better Films that are must reads for all filmmakers). But Lance Weiler, creator of the workbook project (an amazing resource for filmmakers), hit home a big problem plaguing the concept of audience building, fractured audiences, "Audiences are becoming so fractured nowadays that it's hard to tap into them. How can we take a filmmaker and their audience and be able to share them with another?"

Personally I think this is one, if not the main problems facing the current independent film movement. We have tools and resources on how to make films, but we do not have a central focus for our audiences to tap into. We need to start thinking about ways of actively connecting our networks to promote the actual consumption of our films, as opposed to just teaching others how to make them.

"The Internet had changed everything, including independent film. It's never been easier to make a film but never been harder to build an audience." said Mark Lipsky, president of Gigantic Digital Cinema, a company committed to making quality, first-run independent films available to everyone, everywhere, anytime. "One of the biggest problems with Independent Films is the label "independent film" wad co-opted by the studios. We need to win back that label." he said, comparing how "There Will Be Blood" is labeled 'indie' by the media. Orly Ravid of New American Vision, has an ambitious new project The Film Collaborative to fix the problem. When it launches, it will be the first non-profit, full-service provider dedicated to the distribution of independent film. It will offer a full range of affordable distribution, educational, and marketing services to independent/non-commercial filmmakers looking to reach out to traditionally undeserved audiences, thus enriching the lives of filmmakers, audiences, and communities alike. This is a step in the right direction.

Overall, IFP Film week's panels provides independent filmmakers an invaluable tool of starting dialogue about our constantly evolving independent film culture. It's our job as filmmakers to engage our audiences in that very dialogue, but in a creative way. I think the most valuable nugget of information came from a young filmmaker, Asiel Norton director of the film Redland, who earnestly said, "The way I look at the web and social media is as another creative tool to create art. It's a tool to extend and expand the life around your film, but at the end of the day, the most important thing is to make a good movie"

Anti-Christ Anti-Review

I have a lot of filmic influences from around the globe but there are only a core group of filmmakers who I truly consider and regard as cinematic legends. Andrei Tarkovsky is one, if not, the greatest filmmaker of all time and leads the pack of cinematic legends that I am in awe of and to whom I aspire to be like. Lars Von Trier is also part of this cinematic rat pack, obviously for very different reasons than dear old Andrei, yet the two filmmakers are intertwined for me.

Tarkovsky's influence on Von Trier is more than apparent, particularly in his first few films. Look at Von Trier's early masterpiece "The Elements of Crime" which clearly lends itself to Tarkovsky nature infused imagery but in a new disturbing and twisted way. As Von Trier evolved as a filmmaker, he drifted farther and farther from the traditional cinema form and began crafting his unique Dogma style of filmmaking, as far a departure from Tarkovsky as possible.

But with Anti-Christ we see a return to these old school influence of restrained and delicate camera work that entrances your eyes and mind but in an anti-Tarkovsky fashion, making it all the more compelling. Anti-Christ is a hypnotic horror fest that not only hypnotizes its viewers, but makes them extremely uncomfortable, while dabbling in a myriad of themes ranging from sex, violence, depression, torture, genocide, religion, satanism and death. While these may seem overwhelming in description, Von Trier's anti-Tarkovsky film style slowly lulls the viewer into a calm before dealing a death blow.

Lars von Trier's history of torturing a woman's soul in his films is part of his signature, usually giving them an enormous hurdle to overcome and then pulling the rug beneath their feet just as they are about to succeed, making it all the more tragic. His films are at times, very difficult to watch, so it's no surprise that he has a knack for horror films. However, previous to this, Von Trier has only done one true horror project "Riget" better known as "The Kingdom", an excellent Danish TV show that was poorly adapted in the US by Stephen King and cut short due to the death of its primary actor. But nothing is quite as chilling as his new endeavor.

Anti-Christ might be Lars' greatest work to date in my humble opinion. While many in Cannes scoffed at the graphic sexual violence portrayed in the film and then felt insulted as they saw a solemn dedication to Andrei Tarkovsky, I felt the opposite way. Why? Because in many ways this is the ultimate Andrei Tarkovsky film but in an antithesis kind of way.

Where Andrei found beauty in nature, Lars finds evil. While Andrei will hold imagery of religious artwork in his films, Lars focuses on images of torture and genocide. In the method of perfection that Tarkovsky strived for, Von Trier relishes in controlled chaos. And in the way that Andrei searches for Christ in his films, Lars reveals to us the Anti-Christ inherent in our own human nature.

Without revealing any spoilers, the final shot of Anti-Christ to me is like a continuation of one of the many mesmerizing shots from Tarkovski's final film "The Sacrifice", specifically when Erland Josephon daydreams about the oncoming apocalypse and has a vision of countless faceless figures running down an abandoned street. Remember this shot when you see Anti-Christ and you will understand how Von Trier has connected the dots from one of his greatest teachers to his own cinematic vision.

Follow Friday Friends

#FollowFriday is a popular trend/activity that Twitter users do every Friday to recommend fellow tweeple (as I call them) that they enjoy following on Twitter. Its becoming increasingly difficult to understand and keep track of why they should follow someone simply because their name is on a list of other twitter users with the tag #followfriday. Instead it's becoming a popular alternative to blog a list of followfriday users and describe something simple to attribute who they are and why a new user should follow them.

Overwhlem You with Blu

The final installment of the Blu Mar Ten Death Trilogy Remix Project is complete...here is the final video using footage from the final film in the trilogy, Ai. Hope you enjoyed the videos and don't forget to go out and get yourself some amazing Blu Mar Ten music to pump in your digital player of choice!

Made of Blu Mar Ten

The second video part of the Blu Mar Ten Death Trilogy remix project is up and out on the interwebs. For the second video "Made of Air" I remixed my NYU thesis short film "Stranger" for the drum n bass trio. I hope you enjoy the collaboration and further check out the fantastic sounds of Blu Mar Ten. Also, check out their cool Twitter giveaway.

Blu Mar Ten Remix Project

The project I've been working on for the past few weeks while still working my full time job (kids don't try that at home) is finally here. As I like to call it, the Blu Mar Ten Death Trilogy Remix project is a collaboration between myself and Blu Mar Ten, a successful drum n bass trio from UK who I discovered via my love of hospital records.

The project is a cross promotion where I took the three tracks from their newest single and used my three short films from my "Death Trilogy" and re-edited them into music videos. Above is the first one, expect the other two later this week. If you enjoy the music I highly encourage you to buying their albums and EPs on itunes or other outlet. Follow both myself and Blumarten on twitter to stay up to date with the music and the videos. Thanks!!!

INK Review

Last Thursday I had the pleasure of seeing a rare kind of independent film at Cinema Village in NYC. When I say rare, it's not because of the genre of the film (sci-fi fused with a bit of fantasy/dreamscape) but rather because of the tremendously high quality final product that is "Ink" a new feature film from up and coming director Jamin Winans. Some of you may already be familiar with the filmmaker from his sensational short film "Spin" which I didn't realize was Jamie's until after I stumbled upon his youtube channel, but in retrospect there is a direct homage to the short in "Ink" which makes for one of the more memorable scenes of the film.

So what makes "Ink" so uniquely cool and different? First off, the level of FX in this film are outstanding, in addition to fantastic cinematography, art direction, editing, choreography and sound design. Every element of the film's production, especially the post production values, are top notch. In addition to that, the movie is chock full of cinematic homage that I was spotting left and right, making it truly a film buff's film to enjoy. Everything from "The City of Lost Children" to "The Matrix" to "Sin City" to an obscure Chris Cunningham videos (maybe that's just me seeing things), but I got a certain sense of glee from seeing the influences of some of my favorite directors such as Aronosfky, Fincher, Lynch, Jeunet and Rodriguez present and alive in the film.

For an independent product, "Ink" looks and feels just like a high budget sci-fi adventure and that truly is a marvel and nod to the director's hard work and creativity. My one gripe with the film was that I felt elements of the story were a bit heavy handed, but I think it's Jamin's way of getting across his positive message about the importance of family. Either way, it never distracted from the fresh style of Jamin's filmmaking and the unqiue universe he has crafted. I don't want to spoil any of the plot, so just watch the trailer above and I'm sure you'll be intrigued to seek out the film. "Ink" is playing in limited release right now in only a few select cities, but hopefully it will be distributed as a digital download so all the world can have a chance to see this truly remarkable independent film. Stay up to date with the film on Double Edge films official website, Twitter, and blog.

Raising the Not Quite Dead...on Twitter!

So yesterday I posted about Jason Pollock's premiere tweetup and today I'm writing about Anthony Lane, an ambitious filmmaker who I also met on Twitter. He caught my attention via his unique method for raising funds for his next feature film "Invasion of the Not Quite Dead". Using the social network, he is taking pre-orders for DVDs and blu-rays of the yet to be filmed film and using that as the primary budget for his project. Yet another ingenious concept for combining social interaction with progressive film cutlture. Not only is Anthony attracting an audience before the film is even made, but he is directly incorporating them into the film.



Anthony is offering a few different packages on his website, a standard pre-order and then multi-tiered producer package or even a speaking role in the film. Either one will result in the zombification of a photo you send to Anthony, part of the pre-order. I think Anthony's creative concept for finacning his film will succeed and I look forward to adding "Invasion of the Not Quite Dead" to my blu-ray collection.

A New Kind of Film Twestival

I've been on Twitter for quite some time and it never ceases to amaze me how amazingly innovative people can be with the social network, particularly when it comes to integrating it with evolving film culture. In my opinion, one of the most important aspects of social media for filmmakers is building an audience for your film, essentially curating your work directly for your fans. But building an audience is only step 1, interacting with them and keeping them engaged with both the filmmaking process and the distribution process is vital to creating something more lasting than an mere independent film.

I can't think of a more perfect example then what Jason Pollock is doing with the premiere of his new documentary film "The Youngest Candidate" at the LA film festival later tonight. It truly is a first of its kind, to use Twitter not to just to promote the film, but actually directly inviting your audience to attend the premiere and bringing those digital supporters who can't attend the event into the theater via Twitter. Jason is truly interacting with his audience in a new and inspiring way and because of that, I predict his film will be a huge success, more so than the average independent film, that is unaware of the power that can be infused via social media.

Learn more about the film premiere and tweetup and if you are tweeting today, hash tag all your tweets with #TYC so Jason can be a trending topic when the film premieres.

UPDATE: Just for clarification, the term Twestival in the title refers to a play on words for film festival and is not meant as the actual definition for an official fund raising operation for charity water. Thanks Amanda Rose for clarifying!

The Twitter Candidate

If you're on Twitter and don't know about Jason Pollock, then you probably haven't been on Twitter very long. But if you are and do know who he is, then you're probably following him. Why? Not only is Jason a Huffington Post blogger, photography enthusiast, activist and twitter guru but he has also made an extraordinary and poignant film (judging by the trailer) called "The Youngest Candidate" about our younger generation being proactive in government roles, specifically by following the story of 4 teens that ran for public office in America.

The film is produced by David Letterman's production company and by Quentin Tarantino's producer Lawrence Bender. Not only that, but Jason is using an amazingly unique approach to promote the film via the internet. Jason is easily accessible via Twitter and is extremely engaging about his film...please check out the trailer above and his youtube channel, the official #TYC website and follow the Twitter titan to stay up to date with not just his film, but Twitter trends, amazing photography links and good vibes. Can't wait to see the whole film J!

I mean views...ahem.

The Death Trilogy

My three short films (Kuragannon, Stranger and Ai) are actually part of a thematic trilogy that comprise the main body of my work as a filmmaker. Though the films have nothing in common story wise, they share imagery, symbolism and an evolution of my thoughts on the concept of Death. I have been working on a detailed analysis of each film and how it correlates to each individual theme per film and I will post that in the near future.

Until then, I present to you the Death Trilogy.
