Re: FW: Syndicate: DEMAND FOR NEW SELECTION OF VIDEONALE 9 |
dear andreas (and others) lot of the problems you mentioned aren't any. or they present themselves differently! if you have a certain work to do, you should calculate the amount of time you need for it and some extra. i found out the festival organizers often start somewhere with some foggy idea and are astonished how much time it is needed for making these ideas true..., and claim they haven't any money to pay people better! another problem is that lots of festival are in competition to others - resulting that a lot of the budget is reserved for loads of side-events and prestige projects. maybe this sounds a bit too generalizing, but i also aknowledge the problem with the high amount of logistic work given by 1500 tapes. i also wish more artists could fill in properly the submission forms, making some of the work go faster. but the original question was: how are tapes selected? some say it is enough to see the first five minutes, some say they won't look longer than 15 minutes. what's the average? art students are even more critical than curators, so, who are the best persons to do this job? cheers a+ ------Syndicate mailinglist-------------------- Syndicate network for media culture and media art information and archive: http://www.v2.nl/syndicate to unsubscribe, write to <syndicate-request@aec.at> in the body of the msg: unsubscribe your@email.adress
