Screening
Back to the Future Event
To help us all get past the post Christmas hump, the fine folks over at Film Friends Forever are presenting their Back to the Future London screening event on Wednesday 6th January, which will be ‘a look at how the film pioneers from a 100 years ago thought we would be living our lives today.’ [...]
Directors Notes Presents…
Tuesday – 1st December – 8pm – Sallis Benney Theatre So once again it seems that the great films we curate here on Directors Notes refuse to be contained by our humble site and are making a break for the silver screen. This time round we’re honoured that CINECITY, the Brighton Film Festival, with [...]
Reading & Leeds Festival Time
It’s once again the day before what I consider to be the highlight of the summer calendar of endless music festivals, Reading & Leeds; which in addition to being three days of beer, bands (and fingers crossed) hot hot sun, is our annual opportunity to take some of our fave DN films and play them [...]
Green Man Forever
The folks over at Film Friends Forever are joining forces with the Green Man Music Festival for an evening of live music and film performances from Echaskech (Just Music), and Neotropic (Ninja Tune, Mush Recordings). For those who want to do more than sit on the sidelines, there’s the opportunity to become a part of [...]
DN Hits the Festivals
It’s raining. In fact I believe technically you could call this pouring, which means what should be a night of excited anticipation has become a scramble to find items that’ll make camping in a soggy field for the next four days bearable. However, the very fact that I’m getting back to nature means the time [...]
Dislocation Festival
As part of my effort to get some of the Directors Notes’ films out to a wider non-podcast audience whilst trying to become cool by association, I’m getting to curate some films for the Dislocation Festival which is being hosted by VSTM Records in my old stomping ground of Luton. As well as the afore [...]
Film Friends Forever Present VBS
In the on-going conspiracy to make me feel bad for never getting organised enough to arrange screenings outside of the annual Reading/Leeds thing, the Film Friends Forever folks are screening the best videos of Vice Magazine’s Spike Jonze helmed VBS.TV. I’m gonna be going along, but if you plan to join in the fun make [...]
16th Raindance Film Festival Open for Submissions?
The Raindance Film Festival will be moving into its 16th year from the 1st – 12th October, but before it throws open the screening doors, is looking for your shorts and features of all genres from anywhere in the world. The festival takes place in London’s West End and last year’s Jury Prize Winners were [...]
INSIDE THE CIRCLE Breakin’ Convention Screening
You’d think that running Directors Notes would mean I spend all my time at screenings and hobnobbing with directors, but the sad reality is that most of my filmmaker contact is via Skype, email and screeners, partially because they live in different countries to me, but more often than should be the case laziness and [...]
Film Festivals for Free
Checking through my mail this morning I came across a useful link in the Shooting People bulletin for the Free Film Festivals website. As they put it: Our schedules list free entry film festivals right across the planet, all of which will accept both submission and screening copies on either small gauge film or inexpensive [...]
