We're pleased to announce these short films will screen as part of our 2008 festival.
Ben Bowman of NYU's Film Department crafts a gorgeously grim and twistedly funny vision of a retro-bureaucratic future in which we've extinguished the sun and must find an alternative. Scapegoats – 9 min – Los Angeles From Writer Director Jesse Lawler (Pirate Camp starring Corbin Bernsten) Stars Joshua Feinman (Mr. Woodcock, Transformers) Ryan Honey (General Hospital) and Kaitlin Olson (It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, The Riches, Curb Your Enthusiasm). When a roommate messes up the kitchen someone has to take the fall. The Cobbler – 15 min – New York Directed by Minnie Tran and written by Voorheesville, NY native Bernie Schallehn. This short film stars Randall Duk Kim (The Keymaker in The Matrix Reloaded, Dr. Crab in Memoirs of A Geisha). This quirky comedy may touch you somewhere deep in your stomach. Jean's Postmodern Masterpiece - 13 min - Oberlin, OH Oberlin College sophomore Jason Outenreath wrote and directed this sharp satire of ego-maniacal student filmmaker auteurs. The lengths Jean will go to for his art are nothing compared to the lengths he'll go to for his reputation among his peers. eScape - excerpts - Scotia, NY Mike Feurstein directed over 30 local student actors ages 5-15 in this sci-fi mix of Lost and The Matrix, shot entirely in the Capital Region. These are just a few of the many great short films we have recieved. Our selection process has just begun. More films will be announced soon. |
