SBS calls for budding Documentary Makers to take part in Podlove 2. Building on the success of the first Podlove series, SBS and the Australian Film Commission are calling for submissions for Podlove 2.
From the intimate to the platonic to the perfunctory, Podlove explored the impact of digital communications on our relationships with friends, family, lovers and strangers. Podlove pushed the creative limits and technical parameters of digital technologies and hybrid content to produce challenging and compelling stories with a strong narrative and universal appeal.
Podlove 2 comprises two 25-minute documentaries, a website and an online game that aims to expand and build upon the established Podlove community. The series will show how communication technologies continue to add to or detract from our lives, loves and relationships.
Guidelines and application forms can be obtained from
Applications close Friday 14 September 2007
Interact is an amorphous mobile phone interactive piece that will link data sent from phones directly into artworks these will be screened at a number of venues across town thus linking them together in real time. As part of the general call for entries, proposals will be sought for interactive digital art projects that utilise mobile phone and Internet technologies. The precise nature of this interaction will be determined by the submitted artworks. Works will screen on Friday nights during the Digital Fringe Festival at Federation Square (and other venues around town). DF is currently looking for text and mms messages to make them into art in real time.
