Stop-Motion Subversions

@ the Echo Park Film Center

What does “subversive” mean to you?

Stop-Motion Subversions will be a one-night only screening at the Echo Park Film Center in Los Angeles, California on October 8, 2005.

We are not looking for your standard stop-motion fare. We are looking for stop-motion films that will destroy, demystify and confront. Experimental films are welcome. Boring super-hero garbage is not. Content is looked at over technique but we hope to have both. How do you define subversive? We’ll let you decide exactly what that means and if you think your film will work for this screening.

There is no entry fee.

This will be the fifth screening I have curated in conjunction with the Echo Park Film Center. Past Screenings have included films by animators such as Lewis Klahr, Janie Geiser, Nirvan Mullick, Lisa Yu and many more.
