REEL MADNESS SEMINAR
Sunday Jan 27 1:30 - 4 pm
at the Eric Martin Theatre
1900 Fort St

Cost - $15 at the door

Join Rob Perkins and Clive Holden for a conversation about personal narrative filmmaking.

Both are presenting films at the Festival and are deeply committed communicators, creatively telling their stories and succeeding in several mediums. Both independent artists following their bliss, working out their stuff on film, video, audio and print mediums, distribute their own work - and making a living as well. Both have excellent web sites.

We'll show clips of their work and have a relaxed exchange of ideas with participants.

Rob Perkins from Cambridge MA has made six films with PBS and England's Channel 4 and is preparing for his next film which will take him down the (Greasy) Limpopo River in Southern Africa. Into The Great Solitude is a classic canoe adventure film that was featured in last year's Waterwalker festival that toured Canada, and also was honored by a screening at Movie Monday. He has authored several books.

Clive Holden is a Victoria native now enjoying the creative climate in Winnipeg. This will be the 3rd year he has been a feature presenter at our festival and several MM events. His spoken word work has been featured on CBC; a regular contributor to Definately Not The Opera, and a major doc on Leonard Cohen. Clive's innovative spoken word CD, Trains Of Winnipeg is #62 (with a bullet) on Canadian college campus radio and several of the tracks have become experimental films.
