Video Sound Archive, 2021, Season 1 - Open Call

About:
Video Sound Archive, co-founded by video sound artists Bridget Moreen Leslie and Debbie YJ Lin is a working archive dedicated to video and sound works that reconsiders the current restructures and parameters.

Rather than a standard festival or exhibition, we are calling for video and sound artworks (up to 10 minutes). To encourage a literal pause in life and ‘mindful use of this easily accessible medium’ by underscoring critical thought and creation. Leaning away from social media and insta- “content creation” (vanity metrics) we hope to allow a straightforward space without the unnecessary pressure of views/likes.

Viewers will see a series of “curated pauses,” -stills- that will live in each season\'s archive. Each Artist will be highlighted and the still image will link to the corresponding artist’s website. This is to encourage visibility in the artist’s own environment, and you get to keep your artwork in your place of choice. Rather than an Artist statement or bio, we will be conducting a series of Artist interviews to include on each Artist who wishes to participate. This is to give a more in-depth and critical lens into their work and themes. It will be added to the specific Artist's page in their season.



Season 1 will be our experimental inauguration. In hopes of avoiding traditional rejection principals- if your work is not selected for Season 1- we may reach out to use it in the following season.

To apply send us an email at videosoundarchive [op] gmail [punt] com
*Include your name, one still image, and one link to your video.

Application Fee: Free $0

Deadline: 2021-03-31

Cine al Patio - Open Call for films

One of the most profound changes over the course of the past year is the way in which audiences have been able to experience art. The closure of cinemas especially has left a hole in the heart of shared social experience, the incommunicable connections that are generated between viewer and screen severed somewhat in the solitariness of our homes. Yet as lockdowns are eased and we return to things familiar, we here at Cine al patio hope to reestablish those relationships with a programme that is dedicated to new ways of experiencing the world.

Cine al patio presents a monthly selection of short films in the unique outdoor setting of La Casa del Árbol Cultural Centre in the heart of Buenos Aires. Our screenings take place in a relaxed atmosphere, catered to an audience eager to experience high-level artistic content from a variety of culture and genres.

We are interested in receiving entries from all manner of fields, be it fiction or documentary, experimental or narrative, live-action or animated, or a combination of these.

The winner of each month's audience vote will win a digital poster that has been created especially by our award-winning graphic-design team.

The aim of Cine al patio is to ultimately connect audiences through a shared love of cinema, to reconcile people through the power of stories told over a mere matter of minutes.

We very much hope that you’ll share that experience with us.
