This message is meant for the young filmmakers who want their short films shown in a respectable and well known museum of photography. I'm aware of the fact that this is a professional filmmakers forum, so for some of you it will be useless and i'm sorry to have wasted your time. Don't hesitate to ask any question :) Wanted: short films by young film makers for an exhibition in Amsterdam! This summer, Huis Marseille, the internationally orientated Museum for Photography in Amsterdam, organises a special programme of films by young film makers. We are looking for short films (not longer than 15 minutes) which have a strong focus on visual quality and are made by young, starting film makers. From these we will make a broad selection that will be presented in a special room from 3 June until 27 August. Every month the programme will be changed so that we can present as many different films as possible. Here's what we want: Your film on PAL DVD: 15 minutes max and preferably two copies (only two films maximum per person!) Your full name + contact details and return address (all material will be returned to you after showing) Information about yourself (age, eduction etc.) Information about the film itself (year, length, technical details, short explanation) Deadline for submission: 1 May 2006 Huis Marseille is an internationally well known museum which mainly programs contemporary photography with a strong accent on the visual and monumental. Because of the strong connection between film and photography, films are often included in the exhibition program. The last few years such different artists and film makers as Teresa Hubbard & Alexander Birchler, Runa Islam, Gerald van der Kaap, Hans van der Meer, Chris Meigh-Andrews and Naglaa Walker presented their films in Huis Marseille. In 2004 we presented a selection of Latin American film makers and artists, among others: Juan Manuel Echavarría, Liliana Porter and Martín Sastre. (Please note that for this summer programme you don't have to be an artist or photographer to submit your film. We'll include any film that is interesting enough regardles of your background or education!)

i meant 24fps with 144 shutter

Why don't you shoot at 23.976 fps with a 144 degree shutter angle? There would be no slowing down of the action, and you would be able to shoot the tv without problem, because you'd get a 1/60s exposure.

films like Zoolander and Anchorman are pretty bad in an ingenious way. Deathwish 5 with Charles Bronson is another one i would watch if it came on tv.

Hitchcock never won an oscar either, so he's number 1 on my list with his better works.

Hello people, i, a student from Amsterdam, am new here. Finally something i can reply to! ;) I've always thought the first Ringu movie was better when shown on tv. The whole story revolves around a mysterious videotape which, when watched on a television set, kills you in a week, unless...Watching it on your own tv at night adds a whole new dimension which i believe would not be there in the movie theater.
