Some information for Kabaret Attendees

FIRST MEETING

The first meeting is on Saturday 14th of March at 7pm at our secret hideout in the Northern Quarter. We appreciate that some of you may not be able to make this, in which case we hope to see you Sunday morning, or whenever you told us you'll be available to meet.

Could you please confirm your attendance at this meeting or otherwise by email at: kabaret@filmonik.com. If you don't already know where the secret hideout is, let us know and we'll tell you!

At this first meeting we'll will give you a chance to discuss and planning the films you're going to make.

The schedule you'll follow between the morning of Sunday 15th March till Sunday 22nd March will be largely your own, depending on the requirements of your films and when you plan to shoot and edit.

You'll be able to stay at the Kinolab as late as you need whilst you're working on your films. But one of the Filmonik team will need to be in the room at all times, so please consider our sleep requirements when planning your late night editing!

DAILY MEETINGS

There will be meetings every morning at 9:30am at the Kinolab. These meetings are for you to discuss the requirements of your film - locations, actors, and equipment - that other people may be able to help you with.

LAUNCH

We are joining forces with Mini Cine to launch this year’s Kabaret on Sunday 15th March at 7.30pm at Odder. If you have never been to a Filmonik screening or done a Kabaret this is your chance to get an idea what can be made in two/three days and to give a you flavor of what we are all about. It should be fun it’s another chance to spark some ideas for this years Kabaret before the hard work really starts!

What is the Filmonik Kabaret?

Just a quick bit of back ground info on the Kabaret...

To energise the filmmakers of the North West (and beyond!), to draw out eccentric new talent, to generally slap everyone back into shape, Filmonik are having a Kabaret. Those of you who lived through the earlier ones will have some idea what to expect, those of you new to this are in for a wake-up call. This is cinematic bootcamp. Over a week of flat out, peddle-to-the-metal 24/7 filmmaking, where fortune favours the brave, the quick-witted and the fast-working, where only the strong survive and the crazy obsessives flourish. If you’ve always dreamed of making “that little movie”, if only you had the time / talent / equipment, now is your chance to watch that dream crash and burn, and see something else come stumbling from the ashes.
