Dome Lab 2010 - Call for Applications
WHEN: 31 October - 5 November 2010 - Perth, Australia.
WHAT: The emergence of ‘destination cinema’ and the proliferation of large-format screens in public spaces present a challenge - and opportunity - to filmmakers and artists working in more traditional screen formats. At the very least a new cinematic language is required, one taking account of the audience’s very different experience of stories presented on ‘frameless’ screens. Fulldome, with its hemispherical screens and surround-sound, is an accessible and powerful test-bed enabling filmmakers and artists to experiment with and develop this new language.
WHY: Reflecting its provenance, most fulldome content to date has been educational and comprised of computer-generated animation, data visualisation, or a combination of both. Now, however, there is a shifting focus, with producers turning their sights to the entertainment potential of live-action story-telling for large-formats such as fulldome.
Dome Lab is a world-leading intensive workshop investigating this potential and the specific challenges involved in creating compelling live-action narrative content for large format and frameless screens.
WHO: Filmmakers and artists excited by the chance to leap beyond the frame and into the expansive creative potential of large-format, immersive screen experiences are invited to apply. Participants will work alongside a team of creative and technical luminaries including Academy-Award winner, Ben Shedd, 2010 Peter Rasmussen award-winner, Peter Morse and international fulldome pioneer, Hue Walker Bumgarner-Kirby.
HOW: Deadline for applications is 5pm CST, Friday 3 September 2010.
