Pocket Film Festival 2011

Call for Films!
As part of the Southbank Bristol Arts Trail 2011, which will be held in May, we are calling for people to unleash the hidden director inside of them. Dig into your pocket, pull out your digital camera or smartphone and make us a small film. Films must be a maximum of two minutes long, and can be on any subject and fall into any category - experimental, comedy, drama, animation, documentary - its up to you! Set the world to rights with a documentary, make that funny short film, or create a mysterious experimental piece. Anything goes.

Commission your song today!

Hiya

On behalf of the Blatant Creation of Art we'd like to welcome any suggestions for songs, sketches, poems or indeed short films (if we're feeling ambitious) for our hour long show based on BS3. The show is called Sunset over Bedminster Moonlight over Southville (or is it the other way round?) and you can find out much much more here: http://blatantbs3.blogspot.com/ or by emailing us on blatantart@hotmail.com or you can follow us on Twitter/blatantart

Feel free to spread the(se) word(s).

Speak soon

dodgy website

I've just been mailed by someone at doorexhibition.co.uk requesting lots of personal info for a major show taking place in Bristol city centre in 2012. When I looked up the site I found it didn't exist. My suspicion is that some phisher out there has got hold of a list of artists - perhaps SBA. Go carefully!

Giant advent calendar at Broadwalk Arts- call for participants

Throughout December there will be a massive advent calendar in the Broadwalk Arts window space.

We are looking for artists, makers, groups and anyone else who wants to get involved to design and make things to go behind the 25 windows. You'll be given a box and what you do with it is up to you (all we ask is that whatever you make fits inside the box as that's the only bit you'll be able to see). Work in the boxes can be in any media and should be on the theme 'my christmas'.

If you want to get involved email me: broadwalkarts@yahoo.co.uk and i'll send you a participation form.
