When Reels Attack
Last night Amber and I attended the Seventh Annual Attack of the 50-foot Reels presentation by the Richmond Moving Image Co-Op. Premise is simple: sign up and get one 50-foot reel of 8mm film (about 3 minutes), shoot it, editing only in-camera, and turn it in. No one gets to see the results until the festival in the fall.
Last year, the results excited us enough to want to participate (which we did not do), and this year was no less exciting. I'm not certain that we'll participate next year, but thinking about it is awful fun.
