Hi All!


I thought I would send along XINEMA's recent call, a nomadic experimental
film series I run that is primarily based in Vancouver BC, Canada. The
deadline is coming up soon on *June 1st*. I realize that I am putting this
out on here pretty late, so if the deadline or submission form proves to be
a barrier in any way please send us an email (i...@xinema.ca) and we will
figure something out! Looking forward to your potential submissions!

[Frameworks] EIKI EX-6000 & 6100 with anamorphic lenses

2023-09-26 Thread lindsay mcintyre
Posting for a friend. I'm hoping these can find a home.

Please contact georgeoliverest...@gmail.com for more info.

pics here: https://vintagefilms.ca/specials/

EIKI EX-6000 & 6100 for sale with anamorphic lenses

We are offering a pair of EIKI stationary 16mm projectors that function as
a changeover system, with two anamorphic lenses.
Both projectors were sold to my late brother by Robert Film Services in
Quebec, Canada, considered a top service technician.

Asking $4000 USD for the complete package.

The EX-6100 has been tested with film. Everything runs very well. The
1000Watt Ozone free Xenon Lamp is bright, and motor is strong in both
directions. Sound amplification is great. Power is 100V AC. The EX-6100 has
a broken reel size selection switch, which you can see in one of the photos
is located at the base of the upper reel post. The projector has logged
over 18,000 hours, so we suspect, judging by the number of hours and the
good condition, that this projector came out of a cinema.

This projector was among the last models of stationary 16mm projectors
built by EIKI in the 1980s. The last machines were produced in 1986
according to the company web site, where you can also find detailed
specifications.

We did not power up the EX-6000 as we were unsure if there were missing
parts, and it requires 220V AC. We examined the basic condition of the
projector and found it to be in good condition, with all of the important
components to run the projector present.

Both machines were serviced by RFS (Robert’s Film Service) in St. Laurent,
Quebec before being sold to my late brother. We know that the machines were
purchased and then stored waiting for my brother to set up a cinema, which
he never did.

Two anamorphic lenses are available, one for each projector.
There are also 2 Allen-Bradley A-B changeover boxes.

KOWA PROMINAR 16-D 44294. Made in Japan.
SANKOR ANAMORPHIC 16-D lens No. 4897. Made in Japan.

Located in Vancouver, BC, Canada.

Best,

Lindsay

[Frameworks] film faculty posting at Emily Carr (and others)

2021-03-02 Thread lindsay mcintyre
Hi All,


Just announced is a new tenure-track position in Film + Screen Arts at
Emily Carr University in Vancouver, BC. I'm hoping it will be of interest
to some of you.


Best,


Lindsay McIntyre


www.tinymovingpictures.com



Please see the message below regarding five new faculty positions that have
been posted.


--

Emily Carr University of Art + Design is a world-renowned learning and
research community located on unceded, traditional and ancestral
xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh Úxwumixw (Squamish), and
səl̓ilw̓ətaʔɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) territories in Vancouver, Canada. It is the
only post-secondary institution in British Columbia dedicated to the
education and practice of art, media and design, and in 2020 it was ranked
the top university in Canada for art and design by QS World University
Rankings. For more information about Emily Carr University, visit ecuad.ca.


ECU has a diverse student body that welcomes people from more than 50
countries. Each individual enriches our institution with their unique
perspectives and practices. As part of our commitment to transformation and
equality, we want to ensure that our faculty reflects the diversity of our
exceptional students. And like many post-secondary institutions, we are
working to dismantle a legacy of white supremacy and institutional racism.
It’s critical that we empower scholars from all backgrounds to succeed as
educators and researchers, to give our students the education they deserve
and to shape the future of the university.

To realize this goal, we are seeking five new faculty members to join Emily
Carr. We recognize that members of Indigenous and racialized communities
have been historically underrepresented at our university, as they have at
many others. With approval from BC’s Office of the Human Rights
Commissioner, we are restricting this employment opportunity to candidates
who identify as Indigenous or as a member of a racialized group.

The five positions are:

   - · Assistant Professor in Communication Design
   <https://ecuad.peopleadmin.ca/postings/1514>


   - · Assistant Professor in Film and Screen Arts
   <https://ecuad.peopleadmin.ca/postings/1515>


   - · Assistant/Associate Professor in Interaction Design
   <https://ecuad.peopleadmin.ca/postings/1516>


   - · Assistant/Associate Professor in Photography
   <https://ecuad.peopleadmin.ca/postings/1517>


   - · Electronic Resources Librarian
   <https://ecuad.peopleadmin.ca/postings/1518>

An additional three positions will be open in late April 2021 (3D
Animation, Studio Art, Print Media). Two of these three positions will also
be restricted to Indigenous and racialized candidates.

*Applications for all five positions will be reviewed starting March 31,
2021, and continue until the positions are filled. *For more information
about each position click on the linked position titles above. Interested
candidates may apply online at ecuad.peopleadmin.ca.
Emily Carr University is partnering with BIPOC Executive Search to help
ensure that people from historically disadvantaged groups are able to
participate fully and equitably. Individuals from BIPOC communities seeking
more information and support during their application process can email
Candice Frederick at cfreder...@bipocsearch.com.

*Emily Carr University’s Equity Statement*



We acknowledge the potential impact that career interruptions (e.g.
parental leave, leave due to illness, etc.) can have on a candidate’s
record of practice and research achievement. Applicants are encouraged to
identify the impact of career interruptions within their application; this
will be taken into careful consideration during the assessment process.



Emily Carr University is committed to creating an inclusive, accessible and
barrier free workplace. We want to ensure that all participants are able to
engage fully in interviews and other activities that are part of the hiring
process. If you have any accommodation requests please contact Human
Resources (*h...@ecuad.ca *). All requests for accommodation
will be treated confidentially.



All qualified candidates who identify as Indigenous or as a member of a
racialized group are encouraged to apply. However, Canadians and permanent
residents of Canada will be given priority. While we thank all candidates
for their interest, only those short‐listed will be contacted.
