videos.antville music video curators....

A short while back, Ian from 7inch Cinema got in touch about a cool festival they organise, with an interesting idea. Here's his explanation:

"hello Antville,

From the 11th to the 15th of March, Birmingham (UK) will be home to the third edition of the Flatpack Festival - an unholy mishmash of shorts, animation, music docs and live cinema in venues all over the city. We use warehouses, bars and galleries, and our main screening venue is the century-old Electric Cinema. If forced, we might come up with themes like 'imaginative use of limited resources', or 'fuzzy areas where film bumps into other artforms'.

Some of the stuff in this year's lineup which you might find of interest:

  • Romain Gavras' Justice documentary 'A Cross The Universe', and a bunch of their videos
  • animator David O'Reilly talking about 'Son of Rambow' and his twisted web-soap 'Please Say Something'
  • an amazing documentary about Italian street artist Blu called 'Megunica'
  • hotly-tipped Swedish vampire flick 'Let The Right One In'
  • a night in the spirit of 1900's film-shows featuring Georges Meliรจs et al and an outfit called Paper Cinema who use cut-out characters to create live animation.

I've been finding good stuff for our shows on this site for years, so this time I thought I'd come clean and ask you lot if you would curate a programme of music videos for us... We thought it would be great to have a screening event which reflects the talent and passion which you find on Antville (although maybe with a bit less fighting). The programme will need to last about 70 minutes, and the final selection will be subject to what we can clear from labels and prod companies (so it's probably worth having a few extra as backup). We'll invite along some of the directors featured, and Antvillers who contribute to this experiment in group curation will be very welcome to a free ticket if they can make it to Birmingham on 13th March.

Um, that's it I think. I'll hand over to progosk who can give you a bit more detail on how this might work. The full programme will be up online in February, and I look forward to seeing what you come up with!

Ian / Flatpack Festival"

In practice, the idea goes something like this: keeping in mind Flatpack's ethos,

  • propose a theme that you consider particularly relevant to current music videos and make a list of videos that exemplify that theme (min. 5, max. 10 videos)
  • you can also suggest other videos for themes that have been proposed
  • videos should be chosen from 2008 antville award Nominees (simpler list is here) - or strong contenders for December 08 and January 09 Faves.

Once proposals are in, consensus is reached on best themes&list (if need be, we can poll for it).

Flatpack will be donating a congruous nugget towards antville's future server-welfare (a subject of current discussion - but that's a story for another day).

Now - get curatin'!
