Beatnik TV

Beatnik TVs BIG Film & Animation Festival

Submitted by gazduncan.

Hi I'm Gaz from Manchester this is my on going Non profit project "Beatnik TV" an Online TV channel showcasing short film and animation from all over the world Beatnik TV also hosts a film nights from Manchester's Nexus art cafe every month (Night Vision) where people can relax and watch films and animations FREE.

Beatnik TV would like to invite you to a day of fantastic short film and visually stunning animation from the best independent film makers and animators around today covering all genres, from stop motion, flash and real life action. The day will be split in to two section Film Vs animation, with Q&A sections and animation workshops where the public over the course of the day will learn basic techniques in charactor development and animation, with the aim to create a one of a kind short film we will screen at the end of the day. Not only that there will be free popcorn, badges and more little treats. . there will be a competition for film making where all films submit will have a chance to win a prizes in category's of short film live action stop motion and more. The main idea about this festival is that its kept FREE No admin or submision fees and most of all the public get to attend free too. there is a theme to the festival but at the moment that's a secret.

I'm looking for funding to help Beatnik grow in a few ways

Funding the festival event. as well as keeping the night vision screenings as awesome,

We would like to hold Meany more free creative work shops and master class that will benefits the creative community and then eventually we would like to open the Beatnik "M lab" a place where people can come and learn how to make there own film creations looking for people who have an idea but just dont know How to go about it. Beatnik TV is a Media project that work in real life as well as on the web with 1000's of people attending past events and 100's of filmmakers already involved from both local and international talent.

We would be over the moon if we could get the Umbro industries help, Both myself and people giving time helping with the project we want to take the Beatnik TV project to the next level. and make this happen,

So go forth and Vote Beatnik TV for a brighter more creative future.
