THE OFFICIAL SHORT & SWEET BLOG
After much demand, Short & Sweet has launched a blog:
This blog is all about short film! If you can’t make it to the screenings in London every Monday night, the Short and Sweet blog is the best way to keep in touch with the Short and Sweet community. If you’d like to meet the film makers, network and see the films on the big screen then please join us every Monday night at Short & Sweet at Cafe 1001, Brick Lane London.
Short & Sweet team up with CO2PENHAGEN, the world’s very first carbon neutral music festival.
CO2PENHAGEN is the first festival in the world to run entirely on renewable energy. The music and arts festival took place between 4-6 September 2009. This three day festival aimed to show that it is possible to enjoy all forms of art without contributing to climate change - a thrilling celebration of theatre, art-installation, fashion, exhibitions and last, but not least, short films.
Short & Sweet was very proud to be part of this world movement. We showed a selection of the finest short films in true Short & Sweet style...on renewable energy! For more details go to www.co2penhagen.com
This year, and for the third year running, BAFTA chose Short & Sweet as its official London venue for the screening of all the Orange BAFTA short film and short animation nominees for 2009. This took place on 23 March and 30 March and we were very proud to have guest appearances by BAFTA nominated directors: Tony Grisoni and Marc Craste.
“When I finished the last frame of my film, Varmints, I realised I had nowhere to show it. Thank you to Short & Sweet – we need nights like this!” [Marc Craste – Director Of “Varmints”: BAFTA Nominated 2009]
In 2008, Getty Images approached Short & Sweet with a unique brief. They wanted to demonstrate the limitless creative possibilities that their immense archive afforded. Short & Sweet identified a selection of talented, undiscovered film makers, who were invited to pitch.
Four strikingly different ideas were picked and those four directors made their film. The directors chosen were: Laurie Hill, Big Red Button, Jasmin Jodry and Ian Mackinnon & Dominic Parker. They had three months and a budget of £1000 to complete their films. 'Photograph of Jesus' by Laurie Hill won first prize.
A HUGE CONGRATULATIONS to Laurie.... He has scooped up all the awards this year for his film; The McLaren Award at the Edinburgh Film Festival, Gold Plaque for Best Experimental Short at Chicago International Film Festival, Best Animation at Tampere and Seattle Film Festival (this award qualifies him to enter the Academy Awards 2010).
