pbr FILMxMUSIC project on Kickstarter
By admin, 2010年 10月 16日
Kickstarter is an online donation platform that describes itself as “a new way to fund creative ideas and ambitious endeavors.” Though we hope for pangbianr to one day be self-sustaining, we are not currently a profit-generating organization: we fund all of our projects out of our own pockets. So we’re trying to crowd-source funding for our next project.
pangbianr FILMxMUSIC project
Following in the tradition of live orchestral performances accompanying silent films, re-imagined film soundtracks, and more modern marriages of sound and image starting with Andy Warhol+Velvet Underground’s Exploding Plastic Inevitable, the pangbianr FILMxMUSIC project is an attempt to fuse the performance of live music and the visual imagination of original film-making as one unified production. Five teams, assembled of one filmmaking unit and one band or musician, will be given a sum of money and a period of time to produce an original work. The possibilities are broad and open to interpretation by each team. These collaborations will culminate in a screening/performance series to take place at numerous venues across Beijing over spring/summer 2011.
Kickstarter works through incentives, so we’re offering items from the pangbianr distro as well as some fresh Hegel’s bagels, among other things, as perks for donating.
