Experimental Forum is an international performance, film and video art festival showcasing experimental film and artists’ moving image from new directors and innovative video artists from around the globe, with the third edition taking place in Los Angeles in November 2018. Our aim is to provide a supportive platform for the exciting and challenging work that is outside the scope of mainstream film festivals and art galleries.
We welcome experimental cinema pieces (abstract, narrative or documentary), video art works, essay films, artists’ moving image and media art, as well as documentary and narrative films that seek to expand, redefine or reconfigure the means and ends of their respective fields. Experimental Forum exists to provide access to, and develop audiences for, artists’ moving image work and is committed to engaging local audiences with new and/or unheard voices in film.
We are particularly interested in works made by early stage filmmakers and artists whose work is underrepresented. We provide a collaborative platform for moving image works made for the gallery and for the cinema with the aim of building a community across disciplinary and institutional faultlines.

Festival del cortometraggio di Bucarest [BSFF]
Indipendente è la parola chiave per il Bucharest Short Film Festival [BSFF], in quanto è stato fondato da professionisti del cinema indipendente e si concentra su artisti indipendenti nel cinema, provenienti da tutto il mondo. Il Bucharest Short Film Festival mira a riconoscere, mostrare e diffondere i cortometraggi internazionali più professionali, innovativi e più interessanti, dando sempre la priorità ai cortometraggi indipendenti.
Il Bucharest Short Film Festival presenterà alcuni dei migliori cortometraggi internazionali in Narrativa, Animazione, Studente, Sperimentale, Documentario, Video Musicale e Diritti Umani. Prendiamo a cuore la mole di lavoro dedicata a ogni film. Pertanto, le regole del festival assicurano che ogni film venga rivisto almeno due volte e ben dibattuto dal nostro team. Alcuni dei film premiati saranno proiettati anche in altri festival cinematografici internazionali.
Gli artisti indipendenti e i loro cortometraggi incontreranno un pubblico effervescente e abbastanza esperto con cinema e festival cinematografici, garantendo networking di qualità e opportunità coinvolgenti, mentre i film selezionati saranno determinati da una giuria di esperti del settore.
Il Bucharest Short Film Festival sta costruendo una forte comunità di interesse attorno ai professionisti del cinema indipendente internazionale e agli amanti del cinema, nel cuore di una delle capitali emergenti più interessanti dell'arte e della cultura, una città che non dorme mai: Bucarest.
Il festival organizzerà proiezioni di film, precedute o seguite da domande e risposte degli artisti, o eventi collaterali di networking e, sicuramente, feste, che si svolgono tutte in vari palcoscenici convenzionali e non convenzionali intorno a Bucarest, come nei cinema, negli spazi aperti e persino nei teatri estivi. Bucarest, ne hai sentito parlare, alla fine: una città per giovani. Ben noto per cose diverse - come il soprannome di «Vecchia Parigi», nei suoi tempi borghesi, prima dei decenni del comunismo, o il più grande edificio parlamentare del mondo [e uno dei più grandi edifici di qualsiasi tipo], dai tempi del comunismo, la nuova architettura, o l'esplosiva scena artistica contemporanea, e anche il impressionanti comunità sotterranee di arte e musica e vita notturna, nei suoi tempi attuali.
LECCE FILM FEST promuove la cultura cinematografica in Italia attraverso i migliori film indipendenti del mondo.
Per noi tema, genere e durata non sono importanti, ricerchiamo piuttosto il talento in un film di alta qualità.

The Flagler Film Festival was formed to showcase the work of new and emerging filmmakers as well as more experienced filmmakers. We believe there are many creative and innovative artists who deserve recognition for their efforts, especially those constrained by low budgets. We believe that sometimes even more creativity is required when a filmmaker has little or no budget with which to create a film. We believe these films should be seen and be recognized for the efforts of the teams that put them together. The writers, directors, crew, actors and all the talented people involved in the production of a film, whether it is a feature or a short, deserve to have a chance to be seen. We are proud to give filmmakers an opportunity to show their work.
Our fourth annual Flagler Film Festival showcased many fantastic films from around the world, including a short animation which was nominated this year for an Academy Award! Films produced by students from Florida State University, NYU, University of Virginia, Savannah College of Art & Design, Full Sail University, and the American Film Institute were screened as well as films from graduates of many other fine colleges and universities. We were proud to showcase local filmmakers as well as filmmakers from such diverse locations as Luxembourg, Spain, France, Rwanda, Australia, Nepal, Canada, Serbia, Iran, and Peru. As an artistic community, we enjoy including musicians, writers and artists at our festival as well as filmmakers. This year our special guest was Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Inductee Steve Boone, of the '60's band The Lovin' Spoonful. Steve met many of our audience and signed CDs, albums and his new book, "Hotter than a Match Head: On the Run with the Lovin' Spoonful." We showcased a short comedy from actor Chris Roach who currently stars on CBS in "Kevin Can Wait" with Kevin James. One of our documentaries, "Daddy Don't Go" was recently picked up by Starz and will be available to the public!
The third annual Flagler Film Festival was proud to showcase amazing films from around the world. We had a film about a Grammy-nominated children's choir from Uganda called "Imba Means Sing" (now in national distribution), a documentary film by an Emmy Award winning filmmaker, a film narrated by the Academy Award winning, legendary actress Olivia De Havilland, two films which won student Emmy Awards and two films which were screened at the Cannes Short Film Corner. We were very proud to be the only festival in Florida to screen "Animals" an independent feature film written by and starring David Dastmalchian (Ant Man, The Dark Knight) now in national distribution. In addition, we had a terrific assortment of low budget, independent and student films which amazed our audience. Over 20 films had representation at the festival with lively, emotional and intelligent Q&As after the screenings. See our website for videos of the Q&As in addition to the list of films, extensive press and awards.
So far, two of our Best Documentary Feature Nominees from our 3rd Annual Festival have announced national distribution deals. Both "My Father's Vietnam" (winner) and nominee "Mount Lawrence" will be seen this spring on VOD platforms as well as other formats, including theatrical. Please see their websites or IMDb for more info and congratulations to them from the festival!
Our second annual festival showcased excellent student and small budget films as well as films with extraordinary credentials, including a film written by two-time Academy Award winning screenwriter, Horton Foote (To Kill a Mockingbird). We were proud to have as our special guest, Laura Tyler, make up artist known for her work on "Face Off" and "Hunger Games." She did a special live demonstration for our audience by turning an actor into a zombie! Also in attendance was actress Evalena Marie (Serena and the RATTS, Dark Haul, Remains) representing the indie feature "Visionary." Our festivities concluded with a champagne awards celebration on our last evening.
We are very proud that several of our official selections from our first two years have received distribution and can be seen on Blu-Ray, DVD and streaming sites. Many of our selected films have gone on to win many awards at festivals around the world. We wish much success to all the filmmakers out there!

He also mentors college students and does charity work. We are thrilled to have his support and through his worldwide contacts in the film industry, we will be expanding our presence in the festival world.
Flagler Film Festival was inspired by the amazingly talented people we have met who perform all the hard work that is required to make a film. We recognize that there are many creative filmmakers who are looking for a place to showcase their work. We are located in a relaxed, pristine beach area with community members who support the arts. Galleries, live theater and now a film festival are part of our small city located in beautiful Flagler County, Florida. Our coastal location is within a short distance to many Florida attractions.

About the Festival
“Animax Skopje Fest” is the first animated film festival in Macedonia. We regard it as a unique opportunity to present local Macedonian creative potential in their home country; the audience will get a clear picture of what is currently in Macedonia created in this field. The festival is by nature competitive and is open to animators from around the world. The main reason why we decided to organize an international festival of animated film in the Republic of Macedonia, is the desire and need for this animated film to get a wide door in Macedonia.
Profile and Mission
The festival is the right address for anyone interested in animation as a way of communication, as a way of expanding horizons, as an effort to support a cultural form and spend leisure time in creative and constructive way, as part of a global trend of creative industries in Europe and the world. “Animax Skopje Fest” is organized by the production company “Auripigment”, in collaboration with the Association of Citizens Creative Center “Tintiri - Mintiri” of Skopje, Macedonia, with the support of Ministry of Culture of Republic of Macedonia. The main mission of “Animax Skopje Fest” is:
Promotion of animation in Macedonia;
Increasing the awareness for animation in Macedonia as a part of important cultural (creative) industries;
Contacting and communication between artists in Macedonia and abroad;
Promotion of dialog between filmmakers, designers, animators, artists, producers and viewers;
Organizing seminars, forums, workshops.
Who We Are
Production company “Auripigment” is working about 15 years in the field of audio - visual arts in the Republic of Macedonia, producing feature films, TV series, feature series, documentaries and entertainment programs intended for the widest audience. Most of the projects are characterized as projects of national interest to universal values. In this list of projects is included one of the latest projects of the production company, the first Macedonian international festival of animated films “Animax Skopje Fest”. Currently the production company “Auripigment” has produced documentary “Hristo Uzunov”, while in pre - production and production are five projects including a feature film. Festival “Animax Skopje Fest” aims to unite and encourage all animators in the Republic of Macedonia and to facilitate verification and presentation worthy of their creative potential and product. “Auripigment” production team knows quality and potency of Macedonian authors and therefore deemed it necessary to put the festival in the service of the promoter and ‘exporter’ of aesthetic founded animated audio - visual works arising from Macedonia. In fact, this festival aims to raise and build culture in terms of making animated films for adults and children who present different aspects of everyday life. The authors of these films from around the world participate in this festival by sending their animated films. Animax Skopje Fest is held in November each year. The last night of the festival, most successful animated films are awarded with prizes, which have undergone previous round of competition and are being elected as awarded by the jury - the commission. On the other hand, our team closely monitors developments in the field of world animation and also as past years, this year and in future plans to carry the best of the world in Macedonia. This is illustrated by the previous two editions of the festival, in which were reported over 400 high quality animated films from more than 35 countries worldwide. While this year's edition reported more than 200 animated works from more than 40 countries from all around the world, which this time, also, will compete for the main prize “Golden Brick”.
IL GIJÓN/XIXÓN INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL (FICX) mira a presentare un'ampia e variegata selezione di cinema d'autore attualmente prodotto in tutto il mondo e incentrato in particolare su film innovativi e registi emergenti. Cinema di alta qualità, personale, giovane, audace e indipendente a livello creativo. Durante il processo di selezione, il Festival darà la priorità a quelle opere di interesse che hanno la loro anteprima mondiale, internazionale, europea o spagnolo alla FICX, nonché a quelle che non hanno accordi di distribuzione commerciale nel territorio spagnolo.
Riconosciuto come «Festival specializzato» dalla FIAPF (International Federation of Film Producers Association)
Lo scopo del festival si riferisce alla consapevolezza sia dei filtri esterni sullo schermo, inclusa la censura (commerciale, ideologica, estetica), sia dei filtri interni della percezione e della proiezione dello schermo, inclusa l'autocensura. NEFILTRAVANAE KINO è un'esplorazione dell'estetizzazione e della mercificazione nell'arte. Il prossimo obiettivo del festival è quello di esporre la complessità, la molteplicità e la varietà del cinema.
NEFILTRAVANAE KINO è un festival cinematografico organizzato dallo Short Movie Club, la piattaforma per progetti cinematografici. NEFILTRAVANAE KINO è un festival qualificato per l'ADAMI Media Prize. L'International Film Studies Conference si svolge contemporaneamente al festival cinematografico. In questo modo, la teoria e la pratica cinematografica sono integrate insieme al NEFILTRAVANAE KINO.
Originariamente il festival si svolgeva in Bielorussia, ma a causa della repressione politica e delle posizioni contro la guerra dichiarate pubblicamente, proiezioni ed eventi possono essere organizzati in diversi paesi. Prima di tutto in Lituania (Vilnius). Ad esempio, la decima edizione di Nefiltravanae Kino si è svolta a Berlino, Vilnius e Helsinki l'anno scorso. Sono stati selezionati 63 film per 12 programmi cinematografici. https://shortmovie.club/programmes/10-2024/
Il concetto del NEFILTRAVANAE KINO (Unfiltered Cinema):
PROBLEMA DI ALIENAZIONE
Viviamo in un mondo di centri commerciali e cinema multisala. Vediamo che il cinema indipendente e l'arte non commerciale vanno alla periferia dell'attenzione del pubblico. Le attrazioni primitive sostituiscono la cinematografia. Il pubblico di Escape si sente alienato dietro il grande schermo. Quindi il cinema mainstream moderno fa parte di uno strumento di manipolazione che porta alla società dell'alienazione. Quindi la tendenza è che il cinema indipendente diventi più illeggibile per il vasto pubblico. Dovremmo capire il contesto del regista per comprendere il cinema indipendente. Ecco perché il concetto di NEFILTRAVANAE KINO implica la presenza fisica dei registi.
PROBLEMA DI SELEZIONE DEI FILM
I registi girano milioni di film. E migliaia di festival di cortometraggi organizzano proiezioni in tutto il mondo ogni anno. In media, diverse migliaia di film vengono presentati a un festival cinematografico. Quindi vari buoni film possono essere trascurati per qualsiasi motivo. Spesso selezionare la probabilità è come vincere alla lotteria. Di conseguenza, i registi non hanno alcun feedback. È un paradosso che nessuno possa sentirti nell'era di Internet! La cultura tradizionale predilige le attrazioni e la visione informale.
Inoltre, questa idea si basa sul problema della selezione dei film. Forse non sorprende che una persona, vale a dire il direttore del programma nella migliore delle ipotesi, o anche gli studenti delle scuole di cinema prendano una decisione preliminare sulla selezione di un film. La concordanza tra giudici o spettatori è più rara della differenza di background e gusti. Quindi la selezione o il giudizio possono essere unilaterali o superficiali. Non è male perché il direttore del programma ha un buon gusto e una sensibilità estetica, ovviamente. Ma abbiamo scoperto un'altra concezione di «cinema non filtrato». L'abbiamo confrontato con il metodo «il meglio del meglio». Questo modo aiuta a percepire l'idioma cinematografico senza il dettato dei curatori d'arte.
CELEBRAZIONE DEL CINEMA INDIPENDENTE
Quindi l'Unfiltered Cinema Film Festival cerca di evitare il «meglio del meglio» ma non lo ignora completamente, certo. Il festival seleziona sezioni di finzione, animazione, documentario, sperimentale e realtà virtuale. Una giuria premia il miglior film in ogni sezione. Il festival organizza le proiezioni nelle sale cinematografiche, nel Centro nazionale per le arti contemporanee e negli spazi artistici.
Il nostro obiettivo è riunire le persone nell'arte, dialogare per essere felici con una comunicazione intelligente. Il cinema è arte ma non sport. Il punto chiave del nostro progetto è stabilire una comunicazione tra il regista e il pubblico.
