INPUT SYDNEY  2012 is being held on May 7-11 at the Entertainment Quarter in Sydney.  It is the major international conference for public television networks and producers and Australia is hosting it for the very first time.

Broadcasters, commissioners, producers and directors from 50 countries across Asia, Europe, USA, Canada and South America will be there as ninety hours of innovative and provocative international programming is screened over 4 days.  Excellent documentary and factual work will be shown alongside programs in all the other public service TV genres.

As well as screenings, INPUT includes forums after each session about what makes valuable, entertaining and thought-provoking public service television.  These discussions will feature the key makers from each program and all attendees are welcome to participate and drop in and out of sessions as they wish.

The Conference will kick off at mid-day Monday, May 7 with a bonus industry day – regional broadcasters discussing opportunities in their territories, and on Tuesday May 8, the screenings proper begin.

No matter how busy I am, I find time to attend all the Input screening-discussions I can. I see programs from all over the world which reflect innovation, engagement and imaginative filmmaking. I discover that broadcasters can be bold. I join intelligent debate about substantive issues and basically have a great time – plus it’s affordable too!

Martha Ansara, filmmaker/author.

Price is a flat fee of $127 for the entire 5 days of the event.

Ozdox is organising a workshop directly after INPUT with one of the overseas speakers. Details will be released soon.  Please keep tuned to www.ozdox.org

In 1978, Kerry Hamill, a young Kiwi, was on board his yacht with two others when they anchored near the Cambodian coast to shelter from a storm. They had sailed unknowingly from the hippie era of “love and freedom” into Year Zero. Along with Englishman John Dewhirst, Kerry was seized and tortured for two months at the Khmer Rouge slaughterhouse, Tuol Sleng (S21).

The film follows Kerry’s youngest brother Rob Hamill, an Olympic and Trans-Atlantic rowing champion, in his quest for justice. It was during the Atlantic row, 41 days of solitude at sea, that Rob began to properly grieve. Some years later, he heard there was to be a war crimes tribunal, the ECCC, in Cambodia and he decided to participate.

As well as giving his statement in court, Rob discovers the scenario surrounding the capture, incarceration, and murder of his brother. He travels with Cambodian translator Kulikar Sotho, a survivor who tells her story in parallel with Rob’s. Rob’s journey ends in a confrontation in court with Comrade Duch, former Commander at S-21, who ordered Kerry and John’s torture and death. 14,000 Cambodians met the same end at S-21.

Catch a sneak preview of this new international co-production, TO BE A HUMAN BEING, introduced by the project’s initiator, Russell Porter – an Australian filmmaker working in Cuba and Chicago.

Russell is in Australia briefly, fresh from launching the series and the book in Bilbao.

As yet the series is unsold in Australia, see an episode or two, hear about it’s inception, the making of and its future distribution.

To Be a Human Being is a series of six full-length documentaries, based on six universal human needs. It is a collective portrait of humanity, told in the voices of people from eight diverse communities, and seven languages, from all over the world.

The premise of the series came from the Kenyan woman who said: “You don´t need to apologise, I know you. You are a human being, so what we have in common is very big, and what is different between us is very interesting”. She then explained the six things we all share – Sustenance, Love, Faith, Culture, Fear and Hope. These six themes form the essence of the six documentaries in the series.

The series was conceived as a collaboration between seven film schools, produced and coordinated by the EICTV (International Film and TV School) in Cuba. It was made by students and young filmmakers from many backgrounds, and filmed with the Bedouin in Jordan, an artisan community in Calcutta, the Rastro Market in Madrid, Harlem communities in New York, Polynesian families in Samoa, a remote mountain town in Portugal, an Afro-Caribbean community in the Dominican Republic and the indigenous Wayuu community in Colombia.

The films are now screening and winning acclaim around the world, including winning Best International Feature Documentary at the Icaro Festival in Guatemala, against strong professional competition.

Russell Porter is an Australian documentary filmmaker, writer and teacher with over thirty years of experience. He has won several Australian and International awards for his films, many dealing with cross-cultural and social issues, and the relationship between science and society. He recently retired from the position of Tenured Faculty member, Documentary Program, Columbia College Chicago. He is Co-Head of the Documentary Department at the EICTV (International Film andTelevision School) in San Antonio de los Banos, Cuba. He has extensive international experience and recognition as a film teacher at film schools in the USA, Australia, Latin American and Europe. He is currently writing a book on documentary ideas and another on the Amazon and is developing several film projects.

The session will be introduced by cinematographer Erika Addis, currently the Cinematography Lecturer, AFTRS. Erika Addis has been a cinematographer for more than thirty-four years. One of Australia’s highly respected cinematographers, she has shot all around the world from Antarctica to Eritrea to Mongolia. Her body of creative work includes series and one-off documentary productions for cinema and television; feature length, television hour and short dramas; experimental films, education and corporate training programs.

Film synopsis:

Speaker: Leonard Retel Helmrich is a Dutch cinematographer  and film director Indonesian descent. He was born the 16th of August 1959 in Tilburg, Netherlands and has lived in Amsterdam since 1982. Received highest honours for international documentaries at the Sundance Festival and was the first two-time International Documentary winner at IDFA.

Helmrich is famous for perfecting the ‘Single Camera Shot’ filming style and his related technical camera innovations. “…you can move inside an event and go with your camera to the right spot, at the right moment,… That’s what the whole single-shot cinema is about: trying to think of the world as a kind of clockwork, a machinery, with everything interrelated. The bigger and smaller things are just as important. In a clockwork you can’t pull out a little gear because the whole thing jams. The solution is to become one of the clockworks.”, Leonard Retel Helmrich.

He is currently writing a book about “Single Shot Cinema”.

OzDox Session on Digital Distribution

Distribution for documentaries is fast changing and we are entering a whole new world where our documentaries are available 24 hours a day to anyone who would like to view them, sometimes at a price: It’s called Video on Demand – VOD.

New companies have formed to meet this demand from educators, libraries and the general public.  We will hear from three of the biggest: Kanopy, ABC Commercial and BeamAfilm.

Kanopy has been aggregating educational content from distributors in Australia and Worldwide. They stream programs to tertiary institutions, which can then be accessed by any computer, iPod or other media device.  ABC Commercial’s digital distribution strategy is to license ABC content non-exclusively to a wide variety of digital platforms in Australia and internationally including iTunes, Fairfax TV, TiVO, Fetch, BT Vision and SeeSaw. They distribute an extensive back catalogue of documentaries including a number of Film Australia titles and are also actively looking for new acquisitions. BeamAFilm, launching their portal in early 2012, is aggregating a distinct collection of independent documentaries with an aim to raise the profile of documentary and create financial returns for the industry. In a secure streaming environment with a number of unique value-adds, films will be marketed internationally via the beamAfilm website and also sub-licensed across global VOD networks.

With internet streaming new apps have been developed. We will hear from Peter Tapp, of ATOM, who is currently working on developing iPhone and iPad apps and ebooks for iTunes and the Android markets and exploring the new revenue streams that these markets can open up for Australian producers and distributors, not only through sales of the film but also sales of the app itself and copyright income derived from the copying of the study guide.

We will also hear about FilmTank a new digital film distribution platform to be released in 2012 from Red Gaffa – digital agency dedicated to the film industry that specialises in online marketing, branding, social media and digital content distribution.

We will also hear from Thomas Mai, a very experienced Scandinavian sales agent and producer (notably for Lars von Trier), recently moved to Sydney, who will speak about film distribution at festivals/markets around the world.

Speakers:

Olivia Humphrey is the managing director of Kanopy, a Perth-based company. Olivia set up Kanopy two years ago and the company both streams programs and sells DVD from it’s website to tertiary institutions.

Jessica Ellis is the Manager of the Digital Sales & Distribution business within ABC Commercial and has over 10 years experience in the media industry within Australia,

Gil Scrine is Director, Acquisitions for beamAfilm and also runs Antidote Films – a Brisbane based independent distributor specialising in art-house films and social documentaries.

Louise van Rooyen is Director – Business Development for beamafilm. She has 15+ years experience with internet-based businesses and also runs her own consultancy, PPi.

Peter Tapp is Editor of Metro and Screen Education and is based in Melbourne.

Natalie Itzkowic and Tamara Piller from Red Gaffa are involved in innovative distribution, in particular the FilmTank platform.

Thomas Mai, a sales agent and producer who coaches  film makers around the world on how they can apply the new digital possibilities and grow a global audience for their films.

Join acclaimed film editor Mary Stephen – an editor who crosses all genres – for a screening of the award winning documentary 1428.  The screening will be followed by a discussion between Mary Stephen and Julia Overton where Mary will show clips from other documentaries and will show and discuss her approach to editing and the collaborative process.

Mary Stephen is an accomplished film editor, best known as Eric Rohmer’s long time collaborator. Initially an assistant to Cécile Decugis (the editor for Godard’s Breathless) since The Aviator’s Wife (1981), Stephen became Rohmer’s Chief Editor in the early 90s with Winter’s Tale and all the subsequent Rohmer films up to the last one, The Romance of Astrea and Celadon (2006). In the last few years she has worked in Turkey, Canada and China, on films such as Du Haibin’s 1428, a prize-winner at the Venice Film Festival and the multi award winning Lixin Fan’s Last Train Home which won the top prize at IDFA in 2009.

About 1428

In 1428 the filmmakers deliver a vision of human devastation that is ‘fascinating, beautifully crafted (Ronnie Scheib, Variety).  Without judgment but with a deep compassion for their subjects, the filmmakers of 1428 bring us a myriad of individual stories of absurdity, confusion and grief. 1428 has won a number of awards including Best Documentary at the 2009 Venice Film Festival.

The Australian Directors Guild and Griffith Film School present Directing the First Person Documentary, a conversation with directors Phoebe Hart (Orchids: My Intersex Adventure), Peter Hegedus (My America) and Cathy Henkel (The Man Who Stole my Mother’s Face) followed by a Q&A.

These filmmakers have made revealing, confronting and at times controversial films with themselves as the protagonist. So how did they go about formulating the idea, pitching themselves as a character, directing shoots, exercising judgment in the edit? How did they negotiate the boundaries between personal and professional and relationships on-screen and off with family and friends? What have been the long-term effects on their lives?

Date: 30th August
Time: 6.00pm til 8.00pm
Venue: Griffith Film School Cinema, Southbank campus (entry from Dock Street)
Cost: Free to ADG members, $5 non members, Griffith students free, Gold coin donation other students (ID required)

Time is running out for filmmakers to enter their documentaries in the new Walkley Award for Excellence in Documentary.

The award‘s open to a variety of documentary storytelling styles, and judges are looking  for courage and creativity in concept, approach and execution.  The Foundation invites entries that offer an in-depth examination of issues of national or international importance, including investigative, biographical and first-person stories reflecting the emotion and drama of the human experience.

The documentary award adds a 34th category to the Walkley Awards and joins the Walkley Non-Fiction Book Award in recognising and encouraging excellence in long-form journalism, which according to Media Alliance federal secretary and Walkley Foundation CEO Christopher Warren is of increasing importance in an era dominated by the demands of the 24-hour news cycle.

“Through the Walkley Documentary Award, we hope to encourage the professional development of journalists as documentary makers, to encourage journalism’s intellectual honesty in this powerful form – and to recognise those who are able to realise journalism’s primary aim: enlightenment through the pursuit of truth,” Warren said.

Entries, which must have been shown in the 12 months from September 1, 2010 to August 31, 2011, close at 5pm on Friday September 2, 2011.

The winner will be announced as part of the annual Walkley Awards Gala Dinner celebrations, on Sunday, November 27 2011 in Brisbane, the culmination of the Walkley Festival of Journalism, including the Walkley Media Conference.

“I have seen the impact that documentary film festivals have in other countries, not just in the development of new audiences for documentary but also in the quality of the films being produced. We thought a festival dedicated exclusively to documentary would be a great contribution to Australia and we hope Antenna will become a fruitful platform for presenting the complexities of the world we live in. We look to present films that will challenge audiences, while also being relevant,” said Antenna Founding Director, David Rokach.

Rokach and festival Co-Director Alejandra Canales have aimed to create a diverse program of documentary films from Australian and international filmmakers, tackling topics from nuclear waste to a pool party to matchmaking mayors. Antenna opens with the Australian premiere of Robert Nugent’s Memoirs of a Plague, the intriguing story of the ancient relationship between humans and the dreaded locust.  Other festival highlights include award-winning documentaries such as Michael Madsen’s Into Eternity (Finland, Sweden, Denmark), Robin Hessman’s My Perestroika (UK, USA, Russia) and Sounak Chakravorty’s The Bengali Detective (India, UK, USA).

17 of the documentary feature films in the festival are in competition, with awards given in two categories, the SBS Award for Best International Documentary and Award for Best Australian Documentary. The awards accompany generous cash prizes of $5,000 and $2,500 respectively.  Antenna will also hold a special competition for student films in association with the Australian Television and Radio School (AFTRS), with a prize package valued at $2,000.

The festival program will feature special events, including a free screening of celebrated French filmmaker Chris Marker’s Sans Soleil in honour of his 90th birthday. The experimental documentary, which will be shown in collaboration with the National Film and Sound Archive and Alliance Française Sydney, is a meditation on the nature of human memory and the screening will be followed by a lecture about his work, which is open free to the public. The festival will also host a panel discussion with OzDox and The Australian International Documentary Conference (AIDC).
