Disposable Film Fest

According to a tip from Eric Slatkin, founder of Disposable Film Festival , his new venture "was created to celebrate the artistic potential of disposable video: short films made on alternative cameras like one time use video cameras, cell phones, webcams, screen capture software, and other readily available video capture devices."

It's gaining a lot of buzz with live screenings already booked in San Francisco, New York, and LA. (Online screenings will also be provided by Vimeo for the outlanders.)

This is their second year with the festival, and promises to be an interesting experiment. How often have people caught amazing stuff - only to wish it wasn't a 300 - 400 pixel rendering on a camera phone?

The Deadline for 2009 submissions is July 31st, 2008.
