DUE Friday March 5, 2010
- Come up with a program title
- Write a one paragraph description of the program
- Write 1-2 sentences about each film (you are welcome to google the films and adopt the pre existing copy if it works, otherwise, come up with your own language). The format should be: Film Title Directed by Filmmaker Name (TRT: min:seconds)
- Post your shorts curation on this blog (title Blog: Curating Shorts: title of your program (your name) and don't forget to label it "Assignment: Curating Shorts" in the label tab.
- Include a 2-4 sentence curator statement in the end articulating your intentions.
Note: You do not need to embed the videos...it can be more like a list, in the order listed above.
For an example of shorts program write ups, check out the shorts program section of the San Francisco International Asian American Film Festival (they have snazzy titles and good descriptions- you can find the shorts programs by selecting shorts program under the View Events for tab and when you are at that page, you need to click on the films to read their descriptions).
***
Videos to curate (Note these are not in order, you decide the order they best flow in). Consider how you are building the program- thematically, topically, by genre, by form, aesthetics, niche or a little of everything.
