Rough Cuts
Thursday, March 5th and Friday, March 6th 7:30 pm, complimentary drinks and hors d’oeuvres provided $7 admission Please RSVP to roughcutsrsvp@yahoo.com and specify which evening(s) you plan to attend. Rough Cuts is a series of work-in-progress documentary screenings that are produced every other month at the LAB. For each evening, we screen one rough cut of a feature-length documentary and then moderate a conversation about the film. These post-screening discussions are designed to give the filmmaker a better, more objective sense of what is working and not working with his/her film, with particular attention paid to improving the film’s structure and narrative clarity. We hope that the series also provides a welcome space for local filmmakers, film professionals, and fans of documentary film to meet and talk. The LAB is seeking feature-length works with a final running time of 40 minutes or longer. Principal photography should have been completed, and we encourage filmmakers to submit cuts that are in the later stages of post-production (i.e. NOT first or second cuts). Wednesday February 18th: Submissions must arrive at the Lab by 5:00 p.m. Monday, February 23rd: Selections will be announced. Thursday, March 5th and Friday, March 6th: Screenings, followed by discussions led by guest moderators
