Insomnia Film Festival

The Insomnia Film Festival is back—and while the world sleeps, you could be making film history.

Calling all high school and college filmmakers.

On Saturday, October 13 at 9:00 a.m. (Eastern time), we’ll post a top-secret list of elements — special props, dialogue, settings — you get the idea. Choose any three to include in your movie. Then all you and your team have to do is write, cast, shoot, edit, score, and upload your 3-minute masterpiece within 24 hours. No problem, right?

Once the films are in, your friends, family, and adoring fans will be able to watch them online and rate their favorites. The 25 entries with the highest rating on November 9 at 12:00 a.m. EST will be screened by industry professionals, including Barry Sonnenfeld, James Mangold, and Nora Ephron.

If your film is the biggest hit with either the public or the pros, each member of your team will receive a MacBook Pro, Final Cut Studio 2, Logic Studio, and Shake so you can get started on that first sequel. How’s that for a Hollywood ending?

See http://www.apple.com/education/insomnia/ for more details.

Friday, September 28
7:00pm
Radio-TV 251

*************************************************
Alan Berliner—Intimate Stranger (1991, 60m) and Nobody’s Business (1996, 60m) Alan Berliner’s personal documentaries combine many source materials to develop complex and layered accounts of his lives and the lives of others. After the death of Joseph Cassuto, Berliner created Intimate Stranger about his grandfather’s life. He combines interviews with family and friends, home movies and archival footage to present a portrait of a complex man. Nobody’s Business deals with Oscar A. Berliner, father of the father of the director. Family members add their comments to this portrait of a retired Jewish sportswear manufacturer and salesman who describes himself as “just an ordinary guy.
*************************************************

The underground film series is sponsored by Indiana University's Department of Communication and Culture. All screenings are on alternating Fridays at 7 p.m. in room 251 of the Radio-TV building on the IU campus. All screenings are free and open to the public, and free parking is ample in the lot adjacent to the building, provided you clearly display an underground flyer on the dashboard of your vehicle.

Intern Housing in NYC - Spring 2008

Greetings from The King’s College in midtown Manhattan. King’s is a liberal arts college located in the Empire State Building. Last summer we housed 110 college interns in our apartments at the prime location of 34th Street and 6th Avenue. The program has worked so well that we are extending it to this academic year.

We have a limited number of apartments available for college and graduate students who will be in New York City next spring for internships. You may know that finding housing in this city is becoming more difficult than finding a job! Hopefully, this news is timely for students you may be working with who plan to be in the city for Spring 2008.

The basics:
One-bedroom apartments, with accommodations for three to four residents. Apartments are fully furnished and centrally located in midtown Manhattan. Lease period is from January 5th to May 10th.

All the details are at www.nycintern.org. Also, keep us in mind if you are planning to be here Summer 2008.

(A&H) (2nd 8-weeks, MTWR, 2:30-3:45) Montgomery Taught in English, this course will explore the consequences of political, cultural, and socio-economic isolation of Spain and Portugal from the 1930s to their entry into the European Community in 1986. Topics to be discussed include the rise and consolidation of the authoritarian regimes of Salazar (1928-1974) and Franco (1936-1975), the impact of the dictatorships on cultural production, and the emphasis on an agrarian as opposed to industrial state under the regimes. The course will draw on multiple disciplines, including political science, economics, history, journalism, cultural studies, and film, to examine the representation of the Iberian Peninsula’s isolation through 20th-century literary manifestations, especially poetry, the short story, and the novel. Special emphasis will be given to the Spanish and Portuguese dictatorial regimes confronting the spread of post-war democracy, opposition and democratization of the 1970s, as well as formal European integration in the mid-1980s.

ABOVE CLASS MEETS SECOND EIGHT WEEKS ONLY

ABOVE CLASS CARRIES CULTURE STUDIES CREDIT

ABOVE CLASS CARRIES COLL S & H DISTRIBUTION CREDIT

This course uses readings from cultural history and urban sociology, literature, film, and the arts to shed light on the East-Central European urban experience from the early nineteenth century to the present. Cities in this region share a common experience of transformation of urban space from modernization in the late nineteenth century (mostly under foreign rule), independence and further development between the wars, rebuilding and expansion under state socialism and Soviet hegemony after WWII and new kinds of rebuilding and expansion since 1989. Though the nations in this region have frequently thought of themselves as emerging from rural ³peasant² cultures, even that identity is often defined from cities whether through politics, the social sciences, or the arts.

The language of course readings will be English, although those with other language skills will be encouraged to explore sources in their original language.

Here is some information about the pass/fail option from the College of Arts and Sciences Bulletin (http://www.indiana.edu/~bulletin/iub/coas/2006-2008/student.shtml#pass): “During the four years of their undergraduate program, students in good standing (not on probation) may enroll in a maximum of eight elective courses to be taken with a grade of P (Pass) or F (Fail). The Pass/Fail option is open for a maximum of two courses per academic year, including summer sessions. For the Pass/Fail option, the academic year is defined as beginning with the start of the fall semester and ending with the end of the second summer session. The course selected for Pass/Fail must be an elective (i.e., it cannot fulfill requirements other than the minimum 122 hours required for the degree, and the requirements for credit hours at the 300-400 level). It may not be used to satisfy any of the College of Arts and Sciences’ general education requirements, nor may it be counted as a part of the student’s concentration area, nor may it be counted toward completion of a minor or certificate program. The course or courses may be used to meet the requirement for courses at the 300-400 level.”

New Second Eight Week Offering (Fulfills the Topics Requirement)

The College is pleased to announce that the following second 8 weeks seminar has recently been added to the Schedule of Classes for this Fall 2007. This course carries Arts & Humanities distribution credit in the College and also fulfills the College’s Topics requirement. Space is limited to only twenty-two students.

COLL-S 103 32780
Leadership: Mind, Body and Spirit –
Lessons from the Aspen Idea
(Pugh) (A&H) (3 cr.)
1:00 – 3:00 WF

This is an introductory course to the study of leadership. It provides each student with an opportunity to attain a deeper understanding of effective leadership using, as a foundation, the concept of the Aspen Idea which reflects the fusion of body, mind and spirit. This Idea underlies the internationally known leadership programs at the Aspen Institute, materials from which will be adapted to this course. The course introduces the leadership triad composed of situational, personal and skillful dimensions. Aspen, Colorado is used as a case study for identifying significant lessons of leadership by examination of the mining, skiing, intellectual and cultural aspects of the Aspen experience. We study this confluence of thought, creativity and action that resulted from a renaissance and re-birth after World War II as the Tenth Mountain Division veterans and the University of Chicago proponents of classical authors came together in a place of majestic physical beauty. The combination of theories, research studies, and real life experiences permits students to discover and identify principles of leadership which will form the basis of their own personal leadership plan as well as a foundation for vision, achievement and success in life.

The Angry Filmmaker Tour

The Indy Film Co-op presents The Angry Filmmaker Tour
The Indy Film Co-op is pleased to announce that on October 11th, 2007 it will be presenting The Angry Filmmaker. The Angry Filmmaker, also known as Kelley Baker, is well known for working with other people. He was the sound designer on six of Gus Van Sant's feature films including, MY OWN PRIVATE IDAHO, GOOD WILL HUNTING, and FINDING FORRESTER. He designed the sound on Todd Haynes feature film, FAR FROM HEAVEN, with Dennis Quaid and Julianne Moore. He was the picture editor/sound designer on Will Vinton’s The Adventure’s of Mark Twain, and Meet The Raisins for CBS

The Seminar: Making the Extremely Low Budget Feature
In 2000 Kelley Baker set out to make a full length feature film for the sum of $1000. He failed miserably. His budget ballooned up to $4000, (he forgot he had to feed cast and crew), but when the dust finally settled he had completed THE GAS CAFE, a 90 minute DV feature. Along the way he set up a website, shot behind the scenes footage (for a documentary), and made the movie that he wanted to. What's wrong with this guy? In 2002 Kelley sent 100 letters to 100 Friends asking for $100 to fund Kicking Bird. He raised $5000 and shot for 18 days. Kelley is currently touring the country with Kicking Bird. In this workshop Kelley will walk participants through the entire process from scripting through post production. How to get the most for very limited resources, asking the right questions to get free stuff, and working in an atmosphere where people share your vision and put in very long hours for no money, and enjoy it!

Even More Angry
Kelley has spent the last five years touring the US and the UK, teaching his subversive brand of filmmaking at workshops and showing his films to audiences at Art House Theaters, Colleges, Universities and Media Art Centers. Kelley has appeared in over 175 cities and 250 venues.

Kelley is currently self distributing his short and feature films. His book, The Angry Filmmaker Survival Guide: Making The Extreme Low Budget Film will be coming out in Fall of 2007.

Location and cost
The seminar will be held at the Johnson County Museum of History
October 11th at 7:00 P.M.

135 North Main Street
Franklin, Indiana 46131

The cost of the three hour seminar is $20

Unique Class - Leadership Opportunity with SAA/IUAA (HPER-R100)

The Student Alumni Association is offering a unique “classroom” opportunity for freshmen and sophomores that want to get involved on campus and know more about IU and the many opportunities available to them!

“MemberCorps” is a class offered by the Student Alumni Association, in conjunction with the School of Health, Physical Education, and Recreation (HPER). Students will enroll in R100 and earn academic credit for their participation. The “class” is much more than a typical academic experience! It will immerse students in campus traditions, build leadership and teamwork skills, and create a community of friends and spirit.

Applications are due this Friday, September 14, 2007. Applications and more information is available at: http://alumni.indiana.edu/saa/membercorps/.

Some general information about the program is below:

Why should you apply?
You are part of our IU community and the most important thing you can do is get involved! In addition to your studies, some of the most important learning of your college career happens outside the classroom. MemberCorps is an opportunity to learn about IU, plan events, have leadership opportunities, attend social activities, and more. This unique opportunity will plug you into IU and a fun group of people right away!

Do I need to register/sign up for R100 during freshman orientation or online?
No. MemberCorps (R100) is a special section that is not offered as an option during registration. Once you apply and are accepted to the program, we will provide you with instructions on how to officially register for the class. No fees will be charged for adding the class after your initial registration.

Is there a cost to register/enroll?
If you are enrolled as a full-time student (12 credit hours) and do not exceed 18 credit hours (including MemberCorps — 1 credit hour), there is no additional registration fee for the class.

No books are listed at the bookstores; what materials will be needed for the class?
A course packet (Participant Leadership Development, Rich Mull, 1997) will be available at Mr. Copy, 501 E. 10th St. You will also need to purchase an I-Book student planner, available at the IU Bookstore, TIS, and the SAA offices for $6.

To be eligible for the course, you need to be a member of SAA. You can sign up online, at the Resource Center during freshman orientation, or by visiting the SAA offices. SAA membership includes a discount card, SAA T-shirt, and more.

Are there other costs that I should know about?
Part of the MemberCorps program includes an overnight retreat at Bradford Woods, Sept. 28-29. The cost of this retreat will be minimal and include food and supplies. Anticipate $40 for this program. Scholarship opportunities will be available.

When do we meet?

Another Interesting Second Eight Week Course: HISP-S290 Topics in Hispanic Culture

HISP-S 290 Topics in Hispanic Culture ( 3 credits)
2nd Eight Weeks Course, 10/22/2007 – 12/14/2007
MTuWTh 2:30pm-3:45pm FQ 012A

Dictatorship to Democracy: Spain and Portugal in the 20th Century

Taught in English, this course will explore the consequences of political, cultural, and socio-economic isolation of Spain and Portugal from the 1930s to their entry into the European Community in 1986. Topics to be discussed include the rise and consolidation of the authoritarian regimes of Salazar (1928-1974) and Franco (1936- 1975), the impact of the dictatorships on cultural production, and the emphasis on an agrarian as opposed to industrial state under the regimes. The course will draw on multiple disciplines, including political science, economics, history, journalism, cultural studies, and film, to examine the representation of the Iberian Peninsula’s isolation through 20th-century literary manifestations, especially poetry, the short story, and the novel. Special emphasis will be given to the Spanish and Portuguese dictatorial regimes confronting the spread of post-war democracy, opposition and democratization of the 1970s, as well as formal European integration in the mid-1980s.

NOTES:
1) This course is offered jointly with GLLC-G210 #27425 and HISP-P 290, #28041.
2) This course does not count toward the Spanish minor or major since it is taught in English.
3) The course does count for the Arts and Humanities requirement.

Looking for a Second Eight Week Course? Consider CJUS-P300 Women Prisoners - Ladies First

Due to exponential increases in the scale of women’s incarceration during recent decades, the traditionally neglected lived realities of female prisoners can no longer be summarily dismissed by those working within the prison context or those beyond the prison walls. This course will chronicle the gendered legacy of imprisonment in the United States from a feminist perspective, tracing the historical purposes and practices of incarcerating women. The needs of both women serving time and those who have obtained their release will be examined through writings by and interviews with women who have experienced prison life, as well as through consultation of empirical studies. Moreover, the ways in which these needs are addressed by correctional programming and policy will be reviewed. The course will conclude with consideration of correctional strategies, including alternatives to incarceration, which may better serve female offenders.

Class meeting: Tuesday and Thursday, 4:00 - 6:00 p.m.

****THIS CLASS MEETS SECOND 8 WEEKS ONLY****

Historical Erotica from the Kinsey Institute

The Department of Communication and Culture, the Kinsey Institute, and the Ryder Film Series present, as part of the FILM INDIANA: SCREENING THE SHORT Conference taking place on the IU campus from September 14-16, 2007:

*A Special Screening from One of IU’s Film Archives*

HISTORICAL EROTICA FROM THE KINSEY INSTITUTE

Friday, September 14, 2007
Fine Arts Auditorium 015, 8:00-10:00 p.m.
*Note: No one under the age of 18 will be admitted*

Alfred Kinsey Interview (NBC, 1956, 15 min.)
This is a segment from a practice interview Dr. Kinsey did for NBC’s Today Show . The final interview aired on March 20, 1956, a few months before Dr. Kinsey died (on August 25). In the practice tape, among other things, he talks about how he got involved with sex research and came to establish the Institute.

Getting His Goat (1923, 8 min.)
This is an early silent, live-action erotic short set on Idlewild Beach, where three girls decide to go skinny-dipping, whereupon they meet a young dreamer named Anthony Browning who steals their clothes. They must negotiate with him for the return of their clothes, but he gets both more and less of what he bargained for.

Buried Treasure (Climax Fables, circa 1930, 7 min.)
This silent short is thought to be among the earliest of animated sex films. It follows the sexual adventures and misadventures of the character Eveready Harton while he is stranded on a desert island.

Un chant d’amour (“A Song of Love,” Jean Genet, 1950, 26 min.)
Abandoned as a child and growing up as a thief, a beggar, and a prostitute, Jean Genet (1910-1986) became an acclaimed French novelist who began writing while he was in prison. This film, shot in 35mm by a professional crew, represents his only work in cinema. Because of its explicit homosexuality, the film was long banned. In this silent film, Genet uses direct and allusive imagery and fantasy sequences to portray gay male desire in the repressive circumstances of a French prison. His experimental style later influenced such filmmakers as Andy Warhol and gay and experimental cinema more generally.

Amateur Wrestling Girls in Gym, Part I (Irving Klaw, 1949, approx. 10 min.)
Irving Klaw, an American photographer and filmmaker, was known as the “Pin-Up King” in the 1950s for the strip-tease, burlesque, and fetish/bondage photographs and 8mm films he made in the post-WWII era. Along with his sister, Paula Kramer, he ran a mail-order business selling photos and films of women in scanty attire. This short is part of a series of films he did on women wrestling and boxing, many of which are not set in explicitly sexual situations or coded in obviously sexual ways.

Betty’s Clown Dance, Parts I and II (Irving Klaw, 1951-56, 10 min.)
Bettie Page modeled for “racy” photographs and films from 1950-1957, during which time she became Irving Klaw’s most famous performer. Revived interest in her career in the 1970s and 1980s helped to give her the status of 1950s icon. Fans of hers during and after her heyday were attracted to her bold physical appearance, sexy attire, and the saucy/playful attitude she displayed in revealing poses and dances, some taking on a girl-next-door persona, some casting her as the heroine of S&M fantasies. Playboy magnate Hugh Hefner and science fiction writer Harlan Ellison numbered among her more well-known devoted fans. This film (with music added) is characteristic of Bettie’s lingerie-clad “girl-next-door” appearances, but with a strange doll figure.

Betty Page Nude (Nude Kamera Klub, 1951-56, 5 min.)
This film (also with music added) depicts a partially nude Bettie—one among numerous “nudie” sessions she did for amateur and professional photographers. After a longer career than many models in her line of work, Bettie’s career ended when she experienced a religious conversion in 1958. While there are many books devoted to her, The Notorious Bettie Page (dir. Mary Harron, 2005) is one of the most recent biographical tales to tell her story.

Hair Fetish Films (Photographer Stan Shuttleworth, circa 1950s, 10 min.).
In the early 20th century, many women in the Western hemisphere began to cut off their long tresses. As a result, long hair became more of a rarity and people who doted on women with long, long hair became something of a cult taste group. Stan Shuttleworth, a California-based photographer who died in the 1980s, shot countless photographs and films devoted to this subject. This particular Shuttleworth film consists of four separate segments in black-and-white and color and demonstrates, again, that what counts as erotica is not always predictable.

Deep Donut (Otto Bickoff, Sweet Relish Films, 1976, 5 min.) This is a stop-motion animated short in color that was intended as a sex education film. It features intimate relations between a donut and a pickle set against the backdrop of suburban life.

*The mission of The Kinsey Institute is to promote interdisciplinary research and scholarship in the fields of human sexuality, gender, and reproduction. Visit http://www.kinseyinstitute.org/ for the Institute’s history on research and for information about its collections.
