Meet Me at MIFF XR “After being in lockdown during this year’s Melbourne International Film Festival, two media students decide to explore the MIFF XR program. As they navigate their way around the space, they ran into Mia Falstein-Rush the XR programmer.”   A film by Cherry Lin and Chau Vu   Cast (in order […]

From times where Brad Macdonald and Sarah Wild joined our class, the most rememberable is the rough cut viewing where they stated that we were able to capture what MIFF XR is in a fresh light as it was made by two students. Their reception was also important to note as Cherry and I continue […]

When it came to writing, I always knew that I wanted my topic to be about XR since it was adaptable to COVID-19 restrictions. The more I learn about the XR, the more I brainstorm our narrative. I had a light bulb moment when developing the script where I knew I did not want to […]

Post 3: Reflecting on the recording of voices When we were assigned to interview someone about Melbourne International Film Festival remotely, I discovered that interviewing someone you know versus a stranger would be completely different when it comes to representation. As I interviewed my friend who has been to the Capitol, our conversational interview gives […]

Post 2: Reflecting on Film Spa Upon watching Miroslav Janek’s Film Spa (2015) and with no knowledge about Karlovy Vary International Film Festival, this quirky and well executed documentary with archival footage has its moments such as the awards and parties. But I wanted to talk about how strategic and political this whole event is. […]

Post 1: Reflecting on ‘Enthusiastic Amateurs’ Around the world, film festival emerges during the post war, many which inherit European’s characteristics where it reflects on the pre- and post- Second World War European geopolitics. However, Kirsten Stevens argues throughout her piece while reminding the readers that the emergence of film festivals in Australia reevaluates that […]
