International Video Festival DIGITALBIGSCREEN 2016
Trbovlje New-Media City (TNM) – a call to video artists
Zavod za kulturo Delavski dom Trbovlje, 13. – 15. 10. 2016
The digitalization in cinematography is finally finished in Slovenia. It enables presentation of new contents in a cinema theatre; amongst them also the video and all its derivatives/variations like video document or video performance. Until now video artists have been tied to TV or LCD screens, or screenings on smaller formats. Technical possibilities have therefore been a limiting factor. The international video festival Digitalbigscreen offers the visual artists engaged in video production the possibility to have their works shown on a big cinema screen.
Compilation of selected videos will be also offered to Art Cinema Network of Slovenia (AKMS) to present as a part of their art cinema program.
Herewith we address the interested video artists to submit their works to our open call DIGITALBIGSCREEN 2016
