 My animation 'If you're lost, remember what you saw on the way', has been selected as one of the short films to be accompanied by sound devised by a musician, at the next Video Jam event at Antwerp Mansions, Manchester on the 22nd April 2012, from 7pm onwards. Video Jam is an experimental night of short films, each accompanied by a different live musical performance. After a successful first night back in January, to which hundreds of people unexpectedly turned up, we thought it silly not to organise another one. The programme includes a really eclectic mix of silent films submitted by both amateur and professional filmmakers, artists and animators. Each of these have been paired with a musician/sound artist with the intention of providing an original soundtrack. What results is a 'blind collaboration' of sorts, the filmmaker and musician remaining anonymous to one another throughout the process. Join us in celebrating the qualities of live music and improvisation for this unique encounter between sound and vision! **Doors open 7pm for 8pm start. After show party to follow - late. ** £2 on the door to cover costs - this is a not-for-profit event! DIRECTIONS: Antwerp Mansion is situated on Rusholme Grove, the turning off the Curry Mile where 'Ambala' is (two streets before Hardy's Well when travelling away from town). The entrance is 100 metres down the road on the left through a big gate. There will be people to signpost you from the road. google maps: http://g.co/maps/5thh2 Arrive early to get a good seat! |
