Monday means Short Flicks!!

Hello film and theatre enthusiasts!


Yesterday may have been overcast and grey but there was colours abound at La Trobe! If you didn’t make it to Bundoora yesterday, you missed something spectacular! For instance… an amazing 60’s dance party, some babes in bathers, a Bollywood dance, a fight between two Jedi’s and a fencer, two green kayakers not to mention a few hundred others throwing balloons and glitter all over the Union Building! What an amazing day! Huge thanks to everyone who came out in colour and helped make LIPDUB so much fun! Expect to see video links going up to the final video within the next week or two =)

SHORT FLICKS
But don’t exhale just yet, believe it or not this year just keeps getting bigger and better! This Monday night, the 4th of October, is Short Flicks!! This night of nights is going to be held at ACMI cinema at Federation Square at 8pm. If you haven’t already made a visit to the CBD and bought your tickets at the box office, make sure you rock up early on Monday – expect a crowd! With nine new films ready to hit the silver screen this is going to be one amazing night you can’t miss! We’ll see you there!

ARE YOU READY TO LIPDUB???

Hello student theatre and filmers!!!


Lipdub is almost here! We’re sorting out the final nuts and bolts but we need a bit of help from you! We have a list of props that we need to find, and we have some scenes in the video that need filling out. If you can help with any of the following please let me know!


PEOPLE NEEDED IN THE VIDEO
Rollerbladers / Rollerskaters
Bicyclists
60’s dancers
Sunbakers
70’s protesters
Surfers (surfing skill not required, just come with a board!)
Jedi’s (we have a number of lightsabers ready, if you’d like to battle some fencers this is your day!)


Tomorrow the 28th we’ll be having a working bee in The Studio and we need as many people to help as possible – we’ll be blowing up balloons, making ‘protest’ signs, origami swans etc. If you’ve got some time up your sleeves between 11am – 4pm come in an lets get crafty!


We need hundreds of people to be in this video so call your friends and get them involved – this should be an awesome day – free lunch on Thursday (filming day) and FREE first drink in the Eagle Bar after filming!



The rehearsal day is this Wednesday the 29th of September from 11am – 4pm and we film the LIPDUB this Thursday the 30th from 11am – 4pm!
