>The D.FILM Digital Film Festival is seeking short films made using
>technology in new ways.  This includes digital/desktop video, non-linear
>editing,  2-D and 3-D Animation,   digital cameras and weird cameras like
>Pixelvision and Tyco.  We're looking for work from people who are really
>pushing the envelope to develop new and exciting styles of film. This year
>the festival will be screened in New York, LA, San Francisco, Boston,  San
>Diego, London and Rio.  The entry deadline is ongoing and there is no entry
>fee.
>
>Much has been written in the press lately about the high profile digital
>effects seen in feature films like the Star Wars re-release or Jurassic
>Park.  D.FILM focuses on the opposite side of this phenomenon.  What
>happens when the power of that technology falls into the hands of everyday
>people - artists, musicians, non-filmmakers?
>
>D.FILM is a new festival from Low Res Digital Film Festival
>Producer/Co-Founder Bart Cheever, with the combined talents of Low Res
>Graphic Artist David Weissburg and Low Res Web Architect Cindy Kawakami.
>Last year Low Res was presented at the DGA in Hollywood, Center for the
>Arts in San Francisco, Pacific Film Archive in Berkeley, The Kitchen in New
>York, the ICA in London and as a part of the 25th International Film
>Festival in Rotterdam.  Low Res is now defunct.
>
>Entry forms and further information about D.FILM are available on our
>website at www.dfilm.com, or by contacting Bart Cheever at bart@dfilm.com
>or by calling our office at 415.541.5683.

>"For me the great hope is that now that 8mm video recorders are coming out,
>that people who normally wouldn't make movies are going to be making them.
>And that one day a little fat girl in Ohio is going be the new Mozart and
>make a beautiful film with her father's camcorder.  For once the so-called
>professionalism about movies will be destroyed and it will really become an
>art form."
>Francis Ford Coppola
