21st Local Sightings Party On Set! Opening Night Bash
* Musical shorts followed by A MOVIEMAKING PARTY! * Sponsored by Lagunitas Brewing Company
Set the 21st Local Sightings Film Festival in motion with a program of musical shorts and a fabulous opening night of mingling, music and movie magic!
7:30pm Seattle Music Beat (Shorts Program) 8:30pm Party On Set!
For one night only, Northwest Film Forum transforms into a party on set! Filmmakers: partake of all the fun parts of making movies with none of the crack-of-dawn call times. Not a filmmaker? Experience first hand that special blend of filmmaker camaraderie, uncapped creativity and hare-brained ideas just crazy enough to work. Jump into a live table read (please bring your friend with the Herzog impression), belt karaoke in front of a green screen, and ham it up with hand-puppets. Think of it as a selfie sandbox of epic DIY proportions. With a live DJ soundtrack, Lagunitas brewskies and production design featuring flamboyantly bedazzled floaties by publishing studio/gallery Mount Analogue, this set will be anything but quiet. Footage from the festivities will be massaged into a collectively crafted Forum short film starring YOU, to premiere during closing night ceremonies. Smartphones rolling? Action!
Preceded by the Seattle Music Beat short film program at 7:30pm!
Featuring the following films by local Seattle musicians:
Late Nights in the Lab
(Clyde Petersen, Seattle, WA, 2018, 3 min) In a new music video for the band Your Heart Breaks, Clyde Peterson sings about his college days, featuring old footage from the life of Clyde Petersen and actors portraying younger Clydes.
Make it Last (Shann Thomas, Seattle, WA, 2017, 4 min) A song of a bittersweet summer romance.
Bloodthirsty (Micah Knapp, Shoreline, WA, 2017, 6 min) Haunting vocals and charged chamber-pop atmospherics soundtrack a dreamy futuristic world.
FKL Violence (Jacob Rosen, Seattle, WA, 4 min) A group of still and silent women break out and create space to move.
Fantasy A Gets Jacked (David Norman Lewis and Noah Sofian, Seattle, WA, 2017, 27 min) In a hilarious and disjointed comedy taking place on the birthday of Fantasy A, played by the young rapper himself, the young musician finds himself falling into unfortunate event after unfortunate event until he reaches a breaking point. The anger he exudes does not atone for the mishaps of his birthday, but elevates him in relation to the other ridiculous characters we are introduced to.
