'The Territory’ to Premier 17th Season with Hurricane Katrina Film Diary by Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi Professor

Series on independent films co-produced by South Texas Institute for the Arts and Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi College of Liberal Arts

CORPUS CHRISTI – Excerpts from “Tim’s Island,” an 85-minute film video chronicling first-hand the devastation wrought by Hurricane Katrina will open the 17th season of “The Territory,” Saturday, May 19 at 10 p.m. on KEDT-TV Channel 16.

In late August 2005, Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi Professor Laszlo Fulop and fellow filmmaker Wickes Helmboldt took refuge in “Tim’s Place,” a loft owned by a mutual friend, when Katrina slammed into New Orleans with winds gusting up to 175 miles an hour. Joined by numerous friends who brought along their dogs and cats, Fulop and Helmboldt battled the storm and its aftermath for several days, as the neighborhood was flooded by several feet of water. Following the film, Fulop, the film’s co-director and editor, will discuss the experience with the audience.

“The Territory,” which will run at 10 p.m. for five consecutive Saturdays through June 30, features short independent films on a wide variety of subjects. The series is produced and hosted by Dr. Bill Huie, professor of Communication and Film at Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi; Dr. Ethan Thompson and Laszlo Fulop, both assistant professors of Communication at Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi; and Deborah Fullerton, curator of education at the South Texas Institute for the Arts. Series producer at KEDT-TV South Texas Public Television is Jeff Felts. Works of media art are provided by Mary Lampe, director of the Southwest Alternate Media Project.

Other films to be aired and discussed include:

Saturday, May 26 “Making Art and Making Decisions” – “Vincent Valdez: San Antonio artist Vincent Valdez. “Ryan” by Canadian Chris Landreth is a nightmare vision of how the life and career of animator Ryan Larkin went terribly awry. “Dies Irae (Day of Wrath)” by Frenchman Jean-Gabriel Periot creates hypnotic, flowing impressions that transform familiar passageways into barren geometric dreamscapes. “Dilemma” by Dutchman Boris Pavel challenges viewers to intervene in a life changing, split-second decision.

Saturday, June 16 “Geopolitics and the Personal” – Sports and military metaphors collide in during an Israeli-Palestinian border conflict in “Offside” by Guy Nattiv and Erez Tadmor. “Les Skateurs (The Skaters)” by German filmmaker Mirko Martin records Islamic Moroccan skateboarders as they discuss theology, politics and emigration. “Sadiq” by Sean Mullin is a good cop/bad cop morality tale that takes a frightening turn for three combatants in Iraq. “Silent Companion” by Iranian Katayoon Shahabi shows a communal wedding gown that symbolizes the fragile hopes of a culture in crisis. “Souvenir” by Stephen Rose is a bittersweet fable of epic proportions shot entirely with a toy camera.

Saturday, June 23 “Border Crossings” – The experimental memoir “Berlin Beirut” by Myrna Maakaron contrasts a young woman’s experiences in two divided cities where violence and conflict have shaped everyday life. The documentary “Frontera” by Luis Salinas traces the plight of immigrants from Mexico and Central and South American countries.

Saturday, June 30 “Comedies-‘n-More” – In the futuristic tale “Division” by German filmmaker Till Nowak, a solitary inventor living outside a ravaged city tests the limits of his creativity. “Francis” by Brent Green tells of an elderly woman who taunts bears in the hope that they will eat her. Medusa goes on a blind date with Eric, the physicist in “Medusa: The First Date” by Australian Pierce Davison. A young slacker resorts to drastic measures to reclaim his ex-girlfriend in “How to Cope with Rejection” by Scottish filmmaker Chris Waitt. “Carjacking,” a French/German bleak comedy of errors by Lars Blumers, features a heroine with remarkable survival skills and an out-of-luck boxer. “K-7” by Christopher Leone shows how an ordinary job interview becomes a life- and-death battle in this Kafkaesque satire.

Major funding for the series and the guest artist’s appearance is provided by the Texas Commission on the Arts, a partner agency of the National Endowment for the Arts. Additional funding is provided by the South Texas Institute for the Arts, Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi, Whataburger, Inc., and the Arts and Cultural Commission of the City of Corpus Christi.

THE STORY BEHIND CC7D

Welcome to the CC7D 2007 Scrapbook. Please return soon to see photos from all the CC7D events as this is currently a work in progress.

What follows is a rambling narrative about every aspect of CC7D 2007 including photos, winners and links to the films themselves (when posted online by the filmmakers), and our thoughts about what worked and how next year will change.

The idea behind CC7D started when Edgeworks, the previously held local short film festival/competition, took an extended vacation. Edgeworks, we hear, is coming back and we're keeping our fingers crossed that it does. Its two year hiatus, though, did indeed provide a hole in the local filmmaking scene. Is there a filmmaking scene in CC? According to a recent online post from an Austin-based filmmaker there clearly is not one.

CCFS, which began as a simple online newsletter to alert people about film events and art/independent/smaller films coming to our area theaters, always wanted to create an occasion for local filmmakers to both get together and make more films, but do you simply duplicate Edgeworks or start over with a new type of competition? And if you start over how do you make it different? Joe Hilliard, CCFS founder, heard about The 48 Hour Film Project from CC7D 2007 Judge Irene Carranza. Irene participated in the 48 Hour FIlm Project Austin in 2006. The 48 Hour Film Project is a nationwide competition with Houston, San Antonio, Austin and Dallas all being Texas host cities. Joe began researching how to make Corpus Christi a host city of that event. After discussing the idea with a few local filmmakers, the consensus was that CC's filmmaking community would generally balk at the rigorous demands of the 48 hour time frame. What about 7 days? Maybe. So using 48 Hour as a guide, the idea for CC7D was born.

Several questions immediately arose: Would anyone participate? (i.e. The question returns: Is there a local filmmaking scene?) If so, how many teams? Where could we have it? How would we change the 48 Hour model to make CC7D work here?

Would anyone participate? If so, how many teams?
Using MySpace and calling filmmakers we knew we tried to establish buy-in. We figured that if we pulled it off, there would be about 10 dedicated filmmaking teams. We'd be happy with 7, 10 would be a success, 15 would be remarkable.

Where could we have it?
CCFS's previous events, film screening series, had all taken place at the Harbor Playhouse's Studio Theater which seats about 80 people max. Heidi Hovda always helped facilitate that venue and co-planned those events. Heidi came on board as a co-creator/planner of CC7D around March 2007 after it was decided to move forward. Everyone felt that the Harbor Playhouse's Studio Theater would be too small. WIth 10 teams and everyone bringing 10 guests/cast/crew, we would quickly outgrow the venue. House of Rock, the best bar in town, had recently begun showing films on alternating Tuesday nights. They had the projector and screen and seating for up to 150. A quick call to owner Casey Lain and the venue was locked. The conversation will forever be burned into our minds when we decided to only reserve HoR for one night of screenings...15 teams max and you're still at a managable size and program length! Oops.

How would we change the 48 Hour model to make CC7D work here?
Our main goal was to eliminate all obstacles that would prevent people from entering. Entrance fee? Make it cheap--$20 (48 Hour: $125). 7 days to make the film with a weekend in the middle instead of 2 days. In addition to a required prop, line of dialogue and character, 48 hour has one more cheat-reducing element: each team draws a genre from a hat at the kickoff party. In other words you find out if you're making a horror, sci fi, romantic comedy etc at the beginning of the official time period. We eliminated that element--too restrictive.

The concern we heard repeatedly from filmmakers was that the limited size of the talent pool of actors and crew in CC might dampen the number of teams. How do you get all the people who may want to act or work crew on a project like this together in a room a month before the project begins? How do filmmakers 'show their stuff' to an interested public?

The innaugural Corpus Christi Filmmakers' Expo and Casting Call was born...


2007 FILMMAKERS EXPO & CASTING CALL - MAY 17, 2007

Check back soon for the rest of the story.


CC7D 2007 AWARD WINNERS
The Corpus Christi Film Society heartily congratulates all the winners of CC7D 2007 which you will find below. We learned during the selection process why the Academy Awards make their presenters say "The Oscar goes to..." instead of "The winner is...". To say "The winner is" this film or that film implies that there were 4 'winners' (jury prizes) and 24 'losers'. As trite or cliché as it sounds, there are no 'losers' in an event like CC7D.
--If you made your first film ever, you won.
--If you made a film you're proud of, you won.
--If you used the opportunity to use a new technology or advance you skills in a specific filmmaking area, you won.
--If you made a networking contact and the two of you are going to begin making a new project together, you won.
--If you saw a film that inspired you to elevate your skills on your next project, you won.
--And if any of you make another film and allow the rest of us to see it someday, we all win.

That about covers everyone.

The filmmakers knew at the beginning of the competition that there would be 3 prizes given out per category (pro and am): Grand Prize and Honorable Mention as chosen by a jury panel, and The Audience Award as chosen by secret ballot by all audience members present at the end of each screening. What they did not know was that the event organizers would be determining and handing out additional awards such as Best Actor and Actress, Best Special Effects, etc.

To be eligible for a jury award the film had to meet all CC7D criteria. The sticking point for many was the inaccurate delivery of the line," Well, I guess that changes everything." In future years we'll have to hammer the point home--the line has to be 100% correct. Nitpicky, but only fair.

The CC7D criteria rule was dropped for the non-jury awards which created a little bit of controversy. This first year out, with so many people getting the line wrong, we did not believe it to be fair for a Best Actress candidate, for example, to be disqualified because the Team Leader didn't ensure the line was correct; that is not the actress's fault. Furthermore, when you make a 6' working rat head with glowing eyes for your film, you win Best Special Effects....even if you said 'this' instead of 'that.' Although we relaxed the rule this first time out, next year filmmakers will find definitive clarification on this point--if you're not 100% within the criteria (line correct, etc.) you are ineligible for all awards. In future years there will always be the following non-jury categories: Best Actor and Actress & Best Supporting Actor and Actress. The rest, however, may not be the same. There will always be surprises when it comes to CC7D.

Lastly you will notice that some awards were not given to both pros and ams...this is not a typo.
