Cineworks’ 16mm. Bolex Orientation + Dogma Workshop challenged both first-time and experienced filmmakers by taking away some of their favourite tools: post-production editing, lighting, effects, costumes and props.  Most of the original rules of “Dogma 95” applied to this process.  Participants were oriented with the 16mm. Bolex camera and were provided with a roll of 16mm. film, a camera and a light meter.  They then had 24 hours to shoot a silent film. This screening will be the first time the seven filmmakers have seen their material. 

Cineworks Members and guests are invited to join the filmmakers in this screening as part of our first ‘Cineworks Social’—where members are welcome to screen recent projects with a length of 10 min. or less for their peers in a casual, social environment.  16 mm., Super-8 and DVD formats will be supported.  Snacks and refreshments will be available.  Please join us!
