ROCHESTER SCREENINGS
It will be a night to remember this Monday night at the Little
Theatre. Two pieces produced at Animatus will screen as part of the
Emerging Filmmakers series.
"H.P. Lovecraft's The Other Gods" is a five minute short produced by
Animatus artist Michael Boas. In this horror adaptation, a prophet of
the Dreamlands scales a forbidden mountain and look upon his deities.
This silent film is animated in silhouette style, with a score by
Rochester musician Keith Handy.
"The South Africa Stand" is an animated short from Animation Workshop
student Adrian Esposito. It tells the story of an American family that
moves to South Africa in the 1970s in the midst of apartheid.
Appalled, they eventually become involved in the anti-apartheid
struggle. We're especially proud of Adrian, who is expanding beyond
animation exercises to produce personal stories with social content.
So come out to the Little on Monday night. Mike and Adrian will be on
hand to take comments and questions.

GEORGIE MARCHES ACROSS THE COUNTRY
The latest Fresh Toone from Dave Puls has two more upcoming
screenings. Doesn't Georgie ever get tired?
Here's where Georgie will be playing next:
Boston Underground Film Festival
March 22-25, 2007

Kansas City Jubilee
April 12-16, 2007
http://www.kcjubilee.org/
"When Georgie Goes Marching Home" takes the viewer on a surreal tour
of the Bush administration and its many misadventures. Like a ride
through a fun house, we are taken into the bizarro world of GW. A
surprise ending makes this sometimes uneasy jaunt worth the ride.
