The call is open for the Fifth Annual Small File Media Festival, running October 18-19, 2024.
The Small File Media Festival was founded in 2020 to raise awareness of the high carbon footprint of streaming media. The festival proposes alternative solutions for media practice, as well as modes of thinking otherwise in media theory, which converged in an online festival of sustainable experimental media organized annually.
The Small File Media Festival features Small-File Ecomedia, movies compressed at a rate of 1/mb per minute each, showing that great cinema doesn’t have to mean great big files.
The Small File Media Festival grows out of the School for the Contemporary Arts at Simon Fraser University.
Deadline: June 15, 2024
