The first will be HBO Documentary Film, Class Divide, which will be followed by a moderated discussion with the film’s subjects and filmmakers, Marc Levin and Daphne Pinkerson. Class Divide highlights the recent effects of hyper- gentrification in New York City’s West Chelsea neighborhood, focusing on an intersection where an elite private school sits directly across the street from public housing projects. Immediately following, we are eager to present our newest star of the HBO family, Issa Rae, with a preview screening of the HBO original series, Insecure. Issa Rae will join us afterward for a moderated discussion on her unique journey where she utilized digital platforms to gain YouTube fame for her original web series Awkward Black Girl to writing and starring in her own show on HBO. Premiering this fall, Insecure takes a look at the friendship, experiences and tribulations of two black women. Finally, HBO is proud to sponsor the $5,000 cash prize for the winner of the Best Documentary Film Award.

  • Rewind, Play, Fast Forward : the Past, Present and Future of the Music Video, Bielefeld 2010, S
    Originalveröffentlichung in: Keazor, Henry ; Wübbena, Thorsten (Hrsgg.): Rewind, play, fast forward : the past, present and future of the music video, Bielefeld 2010, S. 7-31 Rewind - Play - Fast Forward The Past, Present and Future of the Music Video: Introduction HENRY KEAZOR/THORSTEN WUBBENA "Art presses the "Stop"- and "Rewind"- buttons in the stream of life: It makes time stop. It offers reflection and re­ collection, it is an antidote against lost certitudes."1 Like perhaps no other medium, the music video clip is marking and shap­ ing our everyday culture: film, art, literature, advertisements ­ they all are clearly under the impact of the music video in their aesthetics, their technical procedures, visual worlds or narrative strategies. The reason for this has not only to be sought in the fact that some of the video di­ rectors are now venturing into art or advertisement, but that also peo­ ple not working in the field of producing video clips are indebted to this medium.2 Thus, more or less former video clip­directors such as Chris Cunningham or Jonas Akerlund have established themselves successfully with their creations which very often are based on ideas and concepts, originally developed for earlier music videos: both Cunningham's works Flex and Monkey Drummer, commissioned in 2000 respectively 2001 by the Anthony d'Offay Gallery, evolved out of his earlier music videos.' Flex relies on the fantastic and weightless underwater cosmos Cunningham designed for the images that accompanied Portishead's Only you in 1998. Monkey Drummer* is heavily based on the soundtrack written by the Irish musician Aphex Twin (Richard David James) for whom Cunningham had previously directed famous videos such as Come to Daddy (1997) and Win- dowlicker (1999).

  • Cutie and the Boxer, 1/11/2013
    CUTIE AND THE BOXER, 1/11/2013 PRESENTS A FILM BY ZACHARY HEINZERLING CUTIE AND THE BOXER US|HD UK THEATRICAL RELEASE: 1 Nov, 2013 RUNNING TIME: 82 minutes Press Contact: Yung Kha T. 0207 831 7252 [email protected] Web: http://cutieandtheboxer.co.uk/ Twitter: @CutieAndBoxer Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/cutieandtheboxer CUTIE AND THE BOXER, 1/11/2013 SHORT SYNOPSIS A reflection on love, sacrifice, and the creative spirit, this candid New York story explores the chaotic 40- year marriage of renowned “boxing” painter Ushio Shinohara and his artist wife, Noriko. As a rowdy, confrontational young artist in Tokyo, Ushio seemed destined for fame, but met with little commercial success after he moved to New York City in 1969, seeking international recognition. When 19-year-old Noriko moved to New York to study art, she fell in love with Ushio—abandoning her education to become the wife and assistant to an unruly, husband. Over the course of their marriage, the roles have shifted. Now 80, Ushio struggles to establish his artistic legacy, while Noriko is at last being recognized for her own art—a series of drawings entitled “Cutie,” depicting her challenging past with Ushio. Spanning four decades, the film is a moving portrait of a couple wrestling with the eternal themes of sacrifice, disappointment and aging, against a background of lives dedicated to art. LONG SYNPOSIS Cutie and the Boxer is an intimate, observational documentary chronicling the unique love story between Ushio and Noriko Shinohara, married Japanese artists living in New York. Bound by years of quiet resentment, disappointments and missed professional opportunities, they are locked in a hard, dependent love.

  • Grant Singer on Making Music Videos
    April 3, 2017 - Grant Singer is a filmmaker and music video director based in Los Angeles. Over the past five years he's worked with Lorde, Ariel Pink, Sky Ferreira, Taylor Swift, and the Weeknd, among others. As told to T. Cole Rachel, 1703 words. Tags: Film, Music, Inspiration, Process, Beginnings. Grant Singer on making music videos In the last couple of years you’ve directed videos for Taylor Swift, The Weeknd, Ariana Grande, and Lorde. Are you someone who grew up watching a lot of music videos? My first memories as a human being are specifically watching music videos in my parents’ garage. I remember the Warrant “Cherry Pie” video stuck out to me when I was four of five years old, and then Soundgarden’s “Black Hole Sun” video and Soul Asylum’s “Runaway Train” video. When I was a little bit older I was introduced to Mark Romanek’s Nine Inch Nails videos as well as Chris Cunningham’s work. Music videos, for sure, influenced me when I was younger, but I never thought I’d grow up and direct music videos. If I had seen a psychic years ago who said, “In 10 years you’ll be directing music videos,” I wouldn’t have believed her. It was never an aspiration that I had.
