Burning Man Filmmakers, writers, entertainment people
I know there are a ton of you out there - mostly because there are a ton of BM films out there. Would anyone be interested in getting together some afternoon on the Playa and talking film? Maybe a filmmaker salon at Center Camp - or if anyone has a good place to gather.
solid input
I would like to meet up to go over some ideas for filming on the playa, more importantly I need to know the rules of camera use in the eyes of the willing, non-willing, actors, performers, etc... How can we collaborate? :P
Lookin forward to the full experience of the burning man. I will have my camera with me most of the time, I hope people won't mind being interviewed or even on camera for that matter. I will have respect and tact. And PARTY!

Then I suggest you read this http://www.burningman.com/press/pressRa ... guidelines
Try Media Mecca
I suggest Media Mecca or thereabouts. I'm a filmmaker too but have little desire to shoot another Burn. I'd rather participate. Plus Im already a reporter on the BRG . Feel free to ask for Gothalot behind Media Mecca. My trailer will be around there somewhere and I'd be happy to put some coffee on and shoot the poop on Film.
wetshots on the playa
I operate a biz called wetshots here in So. cal, for the film industry. I,m bringing a water truck to the playa this year, if any one can think of something to do with it, drop me a line. Thanks Honey.............
choppin my top
Theres no need to chop anything. The tops always open for a swim Goth.
Thats half the reason I drive it up ! Hope to see you there. Honey..........

Burning Manns Theatre

I think it would be great to have a video projector and big screen set up for anyone to plug a laptop into. First signed up, first presented, in 5 minute bursts of creativity! No bars, no limits, even if you wanted to do a live mix with camera and something like Arkaos and laptop movies and images all mixed togther. What about a video feedback tunnel to compliment a laser tunnel? Just think of the possibilities.

CINEMASPORTS AT BURING MAN: MOVIES MADE ON THE PLAYA IN ONE
I'd like to invite everyone to participate in an event that I organize geared toward movie-makers and actors. Please read below. I hope you can make it.

CINEMASPORTS AT BURING MAN: MOVIES MADE ON THE PLAYA IN ONE DAY
Cinemasports is the iron chef of filmmaking. Cinemasports starts with the announcement of "ingredients" on Wednesday afternoon. Teams have one day to complete a movie with those ingredients. Finished movies screen on Thursday evening.
For Example, can teams make a 3 minute movie that includes a tattoo artist, a watermelon seed, and a conversation about hair replacement? We explore how the same ingredients inspire different creative minds. San Francisco Magazine says, "...the results are crazed but inspired."
Anyone can participate. Filmmakers, actors, and those who wish they were. Bring you own team or come alone, and bring a video camera if you have one.
KICK-OFF MEETING FOR PARTICIPANTING FILMMAKERS AND ACTORS
We announce ingredents and guidelines on
WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 1

Okay taunt and tease me. Burning man makes a great location but geeze can I escape the medium? Filmmaking is a jealous mistress indeed.
Not to mention, have you seen what the Playa does to those DV cams? I suppose I could use my little canon A60, oh geeze now look at me I'm actually concidering it. No No no no no no. In any language its NO.
I suppose the stigma that still exists is that most Burners want to escape TV and its negative effect. Filmmaking still has a ways to go to be concidered a playa art form I think. I'm not trying to discourage it here in the forum mind you I just am trying to grasp what it is that doesnt settle well about it for me or what Im I fighting here, or why. I think my participation may be that I will write about it for the Black Rock Gazette.
Can the organizer of this filmmaking event please contact me at my trailer next to the Black Rock Gazette as soon as they come into town. I'll be in Black Rock early, look for the "Goth" on the 15' white trailer's door. Thanks.

why would you think that? does your personality suck that bad or are you that repulsively offensive in general? dont be so hard on yourself.
I am the co-King of Transcendent FunKtions and if you come seeking me, I assure you that one of my loyal (sometimes) subjects will direct you to the super busy me. I may be taking a bath or having a private swim with some dirty little bitches, or getting a massage but I'm sure that if you have to wait long, you will not be bored.

Damn - that's what I get for getting entirely buried up to my eyeballs in a project right before heading to BRC. It sounds like we might have set up something great there this year - but what does everyone say we keep this going and set something up next year.
I like the idea of a film festival on the Playa - but having never made a BM film - since I don't have the guts to bring my gear out in the dust - and I'm a little ambivilent about cameras there in the first place - would it be possible to show any old film we've made? What do you all think? If we start planning now...
And thanks for responding to all this and making this actually live.
By the way - how was everyone's burn?
