“Eau” FIlmmaker Rick E. Pukis (Spokane, WA / Augusta, GA)

"3 Freunde, 3 Kerzen, 1 Mickriges Feurewerk - hallo 2008!"
("3 Freinds, 3 Candles, 1 Mingy
Fireworks - Hello 2008")
Filmmaker Dagie Brundert (Berlin, Germany)
We are 3 friends and we put 3 candles on our heads and ran across the village green on New Years Eve. This village has been almost empty for many years and I'm sure no one has stepped on this meadow for long. We built paths, we met and drifted apart. This is an ancient tradition, best done between the years. It has nothing to do with Father, Son and Holy Ghost but with Today, Yesterday and Tomorrow. We connected them. The lights remained lit, that's a good sign!
"Episode #22 (mis_ing)" Filmmaker Daniel Maldonado (NY,NY)
The second chapter in the series, is " a saturated glimpse into a disintergrating nightmare where missing links oscillate and become born between seperate worlds". Winner of 20th Annual U.S. Super 8mm Film Festival - Experimental Catagory
“Untitled” Filmmaker Lonny Waddle (Spokane, WA)
This is what happens when you fuck off all summer instead of getting a film ready for Flicker.
"Dear Love" Filmmaker Timothy David Orme (Boise, ID)
A short film that documents "the journey"--or more specifically, what is "home"--through a series of found postcards. Some are read, others merely displayed on the screen. His film was shot, edited, directed entirely in the Pacific Northwest.
"Chaos Engine" Filmmaker Mauri Lehtonen (Turku, Finland)
“This is my first movie. I wanted to make a film hat would be topical and also timeless in the same time. Electronic circuit boards look like tiny cities, and that gave me an idea of a doomsday-movie about society and digital systems, and what happens when those systems fail. Soundtrack is entirely computer-generated, so that it would be as cold and as artificial as possible.”
"XO - A Hug and a Cookie"
Filmmaker Dagie Brundert (Berlin, Germany)
We were told that there was a small village hidden somewhere, either in Bavaria or in Central America, which can only be found crossing a wild creek. If you find it you have to be very nice to the locals until they offer you a special gold brandy. This gold brandy contains a rare gold-atomic nucleus that docks on your own DNA chain and – nobody knows exactly how – but in any case it causes an improvement of the heart. And clear eyes.
"T-Shirt of Me" Filmmaker Matt Meindl (Columbus, OH)
What to do when someone gives you a t-shirt with a picture of your own damn face on it.
"alice underwater" Filmmaker Kate Balsley (Brown Deer,WI)
A manipulation of an underwater ballet that poetically accentuates the surreal and ethereal qualities of the original footage.
"Fish in a Barrel" Filmmaker Lonny Waddle (Spokane, WA)
Super 8mm Starring: Jack Roylance
A gas station on a forgotten stretch of road has a proprietor with a unique perspective on the human race.
"Nightlight" Filmmaker Dagie Brundert (Berlin, Germany)
Berlin lights in time-speed-machine; the gelatine layer of the film stained red.
"All That Remains" Filmmaker Ryan Marino (Brooklyn, NY)
A study in the light, textures and ghosts that make up the abandoned.
"Super 8mm Camera Test" Filmmaker Jesse James Hennessy (Spokane, WA)
A surreal camera test
"Do Your Best" Filmmaker Matthew Salton (Seattle,WA)
nighttime, a woman in a fur coat buys groceries
"Fledgling" Filmmakers Tony Gault & Elizabeth Henry
(Glenwood Springs, CO)
Explores the relationship between Kevin and a baby crow he finds on the street one stormy night. Kevin's backyard provides the rich setting for a story about his conflicted relationship to nature.
“The Fruit Man on Alvarado Street" Filmmaker Dagie Brundert (Berlin, Germany)
Fruit men and women have their stands on street corners and sell fresh fruit, cut them in pieces and add, if you wish, chili powder and salt. You shouldn't say No because spicy fruit is totally delicious on hot days. You can chose a plastic bag for three, four or five $. Mango, orange, pineapple, coconut, watermelon, cantaloupe, and a funny white fruit that I don't know the name of and that tastes like potato …
[This film was made during my Artist-In-Residence stay in summer 2008 at the Echo Park Film Center in Los Angeles!]
"Repeat Photography & The Albedo Effect"
Filmmaker Caroline Koebel (Austin ,TX)
Repeat Photography and the Albedo Effect intermixes unlikely suspects to reflect upon the impact of global warming on glaciers. Boxing scenes from Martin Scorsese's Raging Bull are re-shot with a Bolex 16mm camera and then hand processed and juxtaposed against National Public Radio (NPR) reportage and British artist Katie Paterson's audio project.
"More Control" Filmmaker Steve Daniels (Columbia, SC)
MUSIC VIDEO ATTACKS BAND! The Heist And The Accomplice enter an abandoned movie theater to shoot their first music video, only to be stalked by an amorphous, black horror. ...
"The Secret Adventures of the Projectionist"
Filmmaker Max Sacker (Berlin, Germany)
