Filmonik Kino-Kabaret 2024 - A 72-hour filmmaking challenge
Event description
The Filmonik Kabaret is our yearly all-you-can-film buffet of spontaneous creativity, where participants collaborate on as many short films as they can, in a shared production space called the Kinolab at Kindred Studios in Yarraville. The 72-hour jam-session of filmmaking is immediately followed by the premiere screening of the works, part of Setting Sun Film Festival. It's fun, it's epic, it's chaotic, it's challenging, you meet heaps of new people and get attached on-the-spot to many productions just by hanging out in the hub. It's not a competition, it's a celebration of film of all scope. There are no teams set in advance, and no creative restrictions on the films. Writers and directors can improvise all weekend or come to the Friday production meeting with a script ready to go, but the magic will happen with the cast and crew participating and present in the hub. Short films can get written, shot and edited all in and around the hub. It's not a requirement but it's how it's done best to learn more, to challenge yourself, to get help when you need it, and to hop on anyone's project and try something new.
