This Thursday, January 29th, 7pm at the Modern Languages Building, Lecture Room 2
The SAC department will be hosting a screening of experimental short films from Ann Arbor Film Festivals past, followed by a panel discussion lead by Screen Arts and Cultures faculty Daniel Herbert, Terri Sarris, and Chris McNamara. SAC senior Joe Biglin will also participate in the panel discussion.
Ann Arbor Film Festival’s experimental shorts are almost impossible to track down and rewatch after they have been screened at the festival itself – this is a rare and wonderful opportunity to participate in an experimental cinematic experience unlike anything one could see at a typical theater.
Moreover, the opportunity to speak with a group of experienced teachers and artists who have themselves experimented with film form over the years may offer a deeper and more rewarding insight to those without prior experience watching or interpreting avant-garde cinema.
