Kino London Details
Formed in January 2008, Kino London's monthly open-mic film night is the only film night of it's kind in London. Filmmakers register in advance to screen their short at the next event, sight unseen. There are no themes, no pre-selection and no restrictions, other than that films be under 6 minutes, on dvd, and include the Kino London logo at the end, just for our screening.Filmmakers turn up with their film on the night, introduce it personally then stick around to discuss their work with audience and filmmakers alike.Despite the edge of the seat atmosphere, Kino London is refreshingly non-competitive. We are a truly open platform for both experienced filmmakers and those finding their feet as storytellers and producers. As both industry professionals and first-timers bring their shorts to Kino, the bar remains high for all those who screen. And with such a broad spectrum of new work being screened, each event is a genuine reflection of the current output of London's filmmakers, established and emerging.Kino London is a partner of the already booming worldwide Kino movement, which started in Montreal in 1999. The Kino brand has since been exported worldwide, with over 50 ‘cells' springing up across North America, Europe, Africa and Australia. The binding philosophy behind Kino is the belief in making high quality video with the minimum of resources, and in a regular, competition-free platform in which filmmakers can experiment and develop.http://www.kinolondon.com/
