The St. Louis Filmmakers Showcase (SLFS), an annual presentation of the nonprofit Cinema St. Louis, serves as the area’s primary venue for films made by local artists. With advances in affordable digital filmmaking, more and more movies are being made in St. Louis and environs, but opportunities for moviegoers to see that work are scarce, because few of the films ever screen commercially. SLFS frequently provides the only chance area filmmakers have to display their talents on the big screen.
SLFS is held at the Tivoli Theatre in the vibrant Delmar Loop entertainment district. A carefully renovated art-deco theater from the 1920s with a 450-seat main auditorium, the Tivoli is regularly voted St. Louis’ favorite theater in the Riverfront Times’ annual “Best of St. Louis” poll. The event annually screens works that were written, directed, edited, or produced by St. Louis natives or those with strong local ties featuring 15-20 programs over five days, ranging from full-length fiction features and documentaries to multi-film compilations of fiction and documentary shorts. Highlights include post-screening talks with filmmakers, lively seminars on the moviemaking process, and a closing-night party at Blueberry Hill that features announcements of SLFS films chosen for inclusion in the St. Louis International Film Festival and awards given by the St. Louis Gateway Film Critics Association.

I am alive… just working on a long entry…
(-1 rating, 1 votes) Loading ...so please have some patience, i have always really hated to write papers - and the one i am working on is turning into a theory paper on what is “next” … after seeing many people try and predict what is next, i believe that we need to seek avenues that are less “evasive” toward our lives… it needs to benifit our real-world lives without taking more time than a phone order… more on the way.

Here is a thought…
(No Ratings Yet) Loading ...all form is a function of a need and the aesthetic quality of a piece, while keeping to some pretty basic cognitive rules of perception. ok… here i will have to admit i was a psychology major, who almost went for his PhD in drug research… then well… decided to do what i do with design these days… but i am amazed every day that these “rules” seem to “ring true” to the soul/theme of any particular piece of design. I really wannah get into this more, and you will see where I am going with this when i get back to compiling design snips for a compendium of basic design principles - will say it is like going back to school, just slowly compiling from the most basic concepts, to the more complex… its been extremely educational and a blast to explore these concepts… kindah pathetic, but it is my music, my kid, and my conscious life because I love it and think it is really keen… (heh)
oh, and here i gottah also say that no designer should design only in one medium - it limits the exposure to thinking about the use of things that usually don’t go together in ways that nobody else may have thought of, and make it work for any particular project/task/design.
now you are like: “What-EVER!” - but i live design… and have VERY opinionated opinions - question is: can you take the time to consider the possibilities that could be endless?
