WHEN WHERE ADDRESS INFO/PRESS CONTACT Friday December 7, 2012 | Doors @ 6:30 p.m. | Screening @ 7:30 p.m. IWAN The Bubble | Web | Facebook 810 NE 4th Ave. Fort Lauderdale, FL 33304 |Google Maps 1to1super8lmfestival@gmail.com | 954-762-5246 | Facebook Shane Eason, 1:1 Super 8 Cinema Soire Director INFORMATION & HISTORY The original One Take Super 8 Event was established in 2000 by Canadian lmmaker Alex Rogalski as a way to help create more independent lms by a variety of artists, while giving the local community an opportunity to view the lms collectively. Using a super 8 camera is centered on the concept that this type of lm, often discarded to antiquity in this digital age, is still an affordable lm gauge for independent lmmakers. In recent years, more attention has been given to this lm format, as it once sat on the edge of extinction. Now its effects are seen in major Hollywood lms, music videos and mainstream television ads. Many of the super 8 events, such as the 1:1 Super 8 Cinema Soire, are distinct lm screenings, in that none of the lms are viewed by the lmmakers before being screened. Participants are not allowed to edit or preview their lms. Whats shot in-camera, is whats shown. There is no physical cuts or splices allowed by the participants. There is no opportunity to make changes. This idea leads to some exciting and refreshing lms, and a rare opportunity for a public viewing. The popularity of this noncompetitive festival has enabled it to return each year with more lmmakers participating. Hundreds of lms have been created, collected and distributed for the One Take Super 8 Event. The event has also expanded to a number of cities throughout North America. The rst being Montreal (2005) and the second being Fort Lauderdale/Miami (2006). Further, the 2006 event in FTL was the rst time the event left Canada for the United States. The South Florida screening, coordinated by lmmaker and FAU Film Production Professor Shane Eason, has spawned a number of great lms and has created a loyal following of underground attendees. Each year has held an impressive festive atmosphere. This year will mark the 1:1 Super 8 Cinema Soire fth year in South Florida. Its quite the milestone and already a hot topic of discussion among those that yearn the sight and smell of super 8 lm and the soothing sound of a super 8 projector. So go grab a camera, get some celluloid and shoot for this years 5th Annual 1:1 Super 8 Cinema Soire. *Screening date, times, location and participants is subject to change.* The 5th Annual 1:1 Super 8 Cinema Soire acknowledges the following for their generous support: Florida Atlantic University School of Communication and Multimedia Studies Florida Atlantic University Dorothy F.
