LOOKOUTS
Sponsored Submission on DCN Platform by Red Gate Films
On their final trial as village LOOKOUTS™, a troop of young scouts are ambushed by the very creature they were hunting. After a violent battle the lone survivor, Pehn, escapes into the shadows of the Eyrewood™, a mysterious and deadly forest that is home to all manner of wild creatures. The most horrifying of all is the Basilisk, a winged titan with the power to turn its prey into stone. This is the beast the troop of LOOKOUTS™ were seeking, and now it hunts for Pehn.
This short film is our first exploration into classic narrative filmmaking and it was an absolute joy to create. It’s based on a popular webcomic created by Penny Arcade®. LOOKOUTS™ gave us an opportunity to explore new storytelling techniques as well as play with gear and tools in a format outside of advertising. The majority of the film is shot practically with live visual effects. We built sets, costumes, and monsters then brought all those resources together with a wonderful cast and crew into the misty overgrowth of Mendocino’s redwood forests for a production experience we’ll forever cherish.

Robot uses Human to create Art
Dragan Ilic is a conceptual artist who explores how machines interact with art. His new project looks to examine this process from another angle, one that literally elevates his body above the ground via the arm of a robot. Rather than using machines to help focus his artistic tools, Ilic’s latest project sees him becoming the robot’s paintbrush. As the large industrial factory robot’s articulated joints move about with Ilic attached, the artist is left only to create what the robot allows him to create. According to those involved it represents “both the repetitiveness involved in technological production, as well as representing a new stage of ritual or transgressive experiences of the author himself.” - writes The Daily Dot

Coach Pamz
Submitted by Bennett Johnson via DCN Platform
Director Bennett Johnson, along with the support of production company All:Expanded, has found yet another captivating story to tell. In “Coach Pamz”, which will be available on Bennett Johnson’s Vimeo channel on August 29, 2016, the director travelled with Cinematographer David Kruta to the Bronx and Spanish Harlem to document the turbulent yet triumphant life of street football legend Coach Pamz and his notorious team, Carver Mobb.
Shortlisted for the Young Director's Award at Cannes, “Coach Pamz” is a fiveminute account of the life and struggles of Paul “Pamz” Rivera – a coach in the world of New York street football, a tough, innercity sport that sprang out of the South Bronx and various other Latin and African-American neighborhoods 40 years ago.

Matt McDermott - Gravity’s Law
Based on a poem by Rainer Maria Rilke.
'To fall, patiently to trust our heaviness'
Inspired by Rainer Maria Rilke’s poem ‘Gravity’s Law’, McDermott taps into themes of meditation and nature in a deliberate response to the overload of information in modern society.
He was drawn to The Barbican Centre and estate because of its otherworldly quality and achieves a sense of calm with his long free-falling shots against the brutalist architecture.

Hakanaï projection mapping dance performance by Adrien M and Claire B
Hakanaï is a solo choreographic performance that unfolds through a series of images in motion. In Japanese Hakanaï denotes that which is temporary and fragile, evanescent and transient, and in this case something set between dreams and reality. This symbolic relationship is the foundation of the dance composition in which a dancer gives life to a space somewhere between the borders of imagination and reality, through her interactions with the images she encounters. Performed by Adrien M and Claire B (previously) it was debuted in San Francisco few years ago.
