Kids Summer Film Camp - Now Enrolling
by Lakewood Young Filmmakers Academy 29 Jun '20

29 Jun '20

The Lakewood Young Filmmakers Academy Summer Camp is an annual two week filmmaking boot camp in which the students write, shoot and edit a real film from start to finish with the help of award winning industry professionals and mentors. The camp culminates in a Red Carpet Premiere of their film at The Capitol Theatre where their movie will be seen by a packed house of filmmakers, media, fans, friends and family. Current and past instructors have worked on such films and TV series as *The Fast and The Furious, The Avengers, White Boy Rick, Boardwalk Empire, King of Queens, Frasier, Modern Family, The Enormity of Life *and more... This year due to COVID-19 restraints we are altering the structure of the camp to help facilitate proper social distancing measures. In order to maintain safety measures designed to keep students and staff safe we will be limiting the number of campers in attendance each day as well as the number of students in each group. This year we will not be able to be in session for the 10 straight week days, but rather over the course of 3 consecutive weekends (Saturday and Sunday). Rather than have all students in camp at once for 2 straight weeks, we have opted for smaller groups in camp less days and for longer duration. Please visit the website for more information and to enroll in this one of a kind experience. https://www.lakewoodyfa.com/summer-camp Stay Safe!

DEADLINE EXTENDED FOR PROPOSALS FOR THE CITY IS OUR STAGE EVENT
by thecityisourstage＠gmail.com 29 Jun '20

29 Jun '20

REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS FOR THE CITY IS OUR STAGE Sarah Morrison, Trad Burns, and Chuck Karnack are requesting proposals for inclusion in the City Is Our Stage. We are looking for creative and positive representations of how we, as members of an artistic community are dealing with the Covid-19 crisis. How having our passion put on hold will not keep our creative spirits from sharing all we have to give! Priorities for inclusion are for individual artists or groups of artists sheltering together in the fields of Music, Theatre, Musical Theatre, Poetry, and/or Dance. We are seeking a balance of a variety of genres overall for the event. We are welcoming artists to apply who reside or can perform in a place that is within a 15-mile radius of downtown Cleveland. All proceeds from this event will be split evenly between the participating submissions. The City Is Our Stage would be a ticketed event. Our mobile audience members would receive a map to drive to 5-10 different addresses to witness a 5-10 minute performance. These performances would take place on private property and could be on the front porches, lawns, driveways, sidewalks, parking lots or venues of area artists. Performing artists must own the property or have permission to use the location for this purpose from the property owner. Sarah Morrison, Trad Burns, and Chuck Karnack will support the event and artists with augmented press/media, and technical guidance as needed. As well as professional advising in both production and artistic concerns. Submitted ideas should be dynamic representations of your work that can be viewed from a motor vehicle as they park in front of your property. Proposed locations must be able to legally accommodate parking for at least one motor vehicle. You can come up with any creative way of performing that is safe and allows for social distancing between the performers and your mobile audience members. This event will be family-friendly, and the more creative you are, the more excitement for our audiences. If your house or apartment has a super cool feature that would allow you to perform from it, go for it! Let your creativity run wild! HOW THE EVENT WOULD WORK Audience members would buy a ticket online for their preferred “circuit”. Travel circuits will be determined following submissions, either based on physical proximity or artistic medium (i.e. dance, music, etc), or both. We will publish the names of the performers in each circuit, but the locations will only be revealed to the ticket holders on the day of the performances. On the day of the performance, the ticket buyer would show up at a specific time to a starting location and receive a digital map with the performance locations pinpointed on the map and a driving route. They would then head off on their adventure throughout the greater Cleveland area neighborhoods. This route would be pre-planned to account for how long it would take to get to each location so artists would have a general idea of when their performances would take place. Once the car arrives, you would start your performance of 5-10 minutes, and once it is completed, the vehicle would move on to their next locations. Depending upon the number of submissions, each artist would perform their piece no more than 5 times. Depending upon demand, this event may take place over several days. TIMELINE Request for Proposal/Interest will be accepted from this posting date until Sunday, July 5, 2020. Artists would be informed of their acceptance by July 15th. Performance dates would August 15-16 and/or August 22-23, depending upon the number of participants and audience interest. SUBMISSION CONTENTS We realize that things change as a production develops. Please answer the following to the best of your ability. If accepted, artists will be asked to have a zoom meeting with the producers and submit updates throughout their creative process. Information requested: Artist/Group Name & Contact information: Type of performance: Dance, Theatre, Musical Theatre, Music, Poetry: Address of performance location: How many cars can you legally accommodate at your location? (i.e. 2: one in my driveway & one on the street if I block off a space with cones.): Artistic Performance Specifics: 3-5 sentences describing the performance and where would you perform this at your residence (i.e. front yard, porch, balcony, stairwell, sidewalk, etc.): Technical Performance specifics: what you wish to perform, is it live or recorded music, is there video, props, etc. (no more than 1 page): Online video links of previous work, excerpts (preferred); please indicate how the work sample submitted is relevant to the work you are proposing for this event. Preferred clips demonstrating ability to integrate your art within a unique venue if available: Professional reviews; artist/company bio, history; YouTube or Vimeo links to demo reel (for publicity purposes): Any press quotes about the artist(s): The approximate number of performers (keep in mind that social distancing rules should apply for those not sheltering together): Approximate length of the performance: To submit your proposals go to: www.thecityisourstage.com/apply Or email any questions you may have to thecityisourstage(a)gmail.com with“The City Is Our Stage” in the subject line. We are looking to help sustain artists, audiences, and our community through programming that engages and entertains.

by Richard Zenk 28 Jun '20

28 Jun '20

EQUALITY PRODUCTIONS announces the auditions for THE REVOLUTIONISTS by Lauren Gunderson. Four beautiful badass women lose their heads in this irreverent, girl-powered comedy set during the French Revolution's Reign of Terror. This grand and dream-tweaked play is about violence and legacy, art and activism, feminism and terrorism, compatriots and chosen sisters, and how we actually go about changing the world. Four Female-Identifying Roles Available: OLYMPE de GOUGES— 30s-50s. Badass activist playwright and feminist. Theatre nerd, excitable, passionate, a showman. Widowed and never remarried to ensure her personal freedom. CHARLOTTE CORDAY—20s-30s. Badass country girl and assassin. Very serious, hardened by righteousness, never been kissed. MARIE ANTOINETTE—30s-50s. Less badass but fascinating former queen of France. Bubbly, graceful, opinionated, totally unaware, unintentionally rude, and oddly prescient. Never had a real friend. MARIANNE ANGELLE—20-40s. A badass black woman in Paris. She is from the Caribbean, a free woman, a spy working with her husband, Vincent. Tough, classy, vigilant. The sanest one of them all. Equality Productions encourages submissions from artists with a broad range of backgrounds, including all races, ethnicities, abilities, sexual identities, ages, and gender/gender identities. Non-union. This production will be done as a fundraiser and therefore these roles will not be paid. All rehearsals will take place online in a Zoom format.

Cast members’ minimum technical requirements include: 1). a computer, smartphone, or tablet with a working microphone and camera that can be used without a headset 2). a stable high-speed internet connection (https://www.speedtest.net/) and the ability to connect your device directly via ethernet cable, and 3). a quiet space with good/controllable lighting to rehearse and record.

Health Show Looking for Guests for Zoom Interview
by Karen Kawolics 26 Jun '20

26 Jun '20

Hi Friends, I am taping a few episodes of a local cable health TV program on Tuesday July 7th sometime between 4:00 and 6:00PM via Zoom for Community Focus TV (Formerly Cable 9 in Macedonia). Do you have a health / inspirational / or personal improvement topic you would like to share with the public? If so, please send me a brief description and your contact information to kmmk816(a)yahoo.com. The interview will be about 7-10 minutes long - depending on how much info you have to share. We also can edit in still photos or video after the interview if you have some visuals to support your topic. This is our first attempt at Zoom interviewing so the time window for interviewing will be somewhere between 4:00 and 6:00 PM. We are taping 2 programs and each guest will have their own segment, so once you start it will only take about 15 minutes. There will be 2 guests per show. I am booking guests right now for July 7th - however if you can not make that date - let me know - as we will be doing more shows later this summer. The director will provide all guests a copy to download from Vimeo once your segment has been broadcast. You are free to use your interview in any way you like as Community Focus TV is a non-profit organization. In general, I usually get a lot of emails when I send out a requests for guests. If you do not hear from me right away, please know it is only because I have not gotten to your email just yet. I do keep all emails on file for future shows. We generally tape all of our programming for the year within a short window - so you may even hear from me as much as a year later. Thanks so much! Karen Kawolicskmmk816(a)yahoo.com
