Subject: [Frameworks] Vaudeville & silent clowns in experimental film?
 

Hello all,

Does anyone know of any experimental films that have explored vaudeville, 
slapstick and/or silent era clown films (eg. Buster Keaton) in some way or 
another?

I am working on a collaborative dance film with choreographer, Cori Olinghouse, 
who has been studying movement forms like eccentric dance, mime, and voguing. 
Our film will seek to invoke the spaces of Vaudeville through a Dada/Surrealist 
eye. We are attracted to the way these two forms share aspects of humor, 
oddity, and slapstick. 
Here's a link to a preview of our film project on our Kickstarter 
page: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/139958170/ghost-line 


Some films that have inspired us thus far are Hans Richter's "Ghosts Before 
Breakfast" and Anna Halprin in James Broughton's "Golden Positions". 

Any leads will be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Re: [Frameworks] Wall Paint for Film/Video Projection

2012-02-14 Thread Fergus Byrne
Use Rosco white paint for  video projection . It has more body than normal 
white emulsions.

I saw this used for a projection of Douglas Gordon and Phillip Parreno's 
'Zidane and it was well worthwhile.

Hello,

Would anyone recommend a special wall paint for film and video projection?  Is 
there a special paint that's noticeably better than regular interior paint?  It 
would be for a movable projection wall for a small theater group space.

Thank you!
