I am reaching out to people around the country and the world for their input and help. I want to curate an installation piece for the NYC Indie Film Festival, May 2 to 7, 2017. What we are looking for are open and honest talks about how you feel about your place in your community, the country and the world, please keep all videos less between 2 and 8 minutes length. All ideas and thoughts are welcome and will be shown unedited. There are no fees involved in submitting a video and all videos submitted will be reviewed before being included in the exhibit. We are are not paying any fees to any video maker who’s video is included in the exhibit. We do reserve the right to not include any piece for any reason.
What we are looking for is an open and free dialogue. All we need is for you to talk in the video about yourselves and how you feel. We would need it by March 1 so we have time to review all videos and put the exhibit together. So the sooner the better! A phone may be used to video the talk just please turn the phone sideways while shooting it will fit the screen better! You may sit with friends or family to record a group talking about life. You may blur your face or your voice.
All submissions may be sent to us as a message on FaceBook or as an email to exhibit@nycindieff.com. Please include your name, an email where we can get in touch with you and the link to your video on either YouTube or Vimeo.
