*ATELIER 105*
*Post-production residencies for video*


*CALL FOR PROJECTSFIRST COMMISSION OF 2022*

Since October 2014, Light Cone hosts artist residencies dedicated to the
video-based post-production of films that belong to the realm of
experimental cinema, with the aim of supporting approximately 10 projects
per year. The residency is adapted to the workflow of experimental
filmmakers, and, therefore, eligibility criteria are deliberately kept
open. Short, medium, as well as feature-length films are welcome, on the
condition that shooting is completed and editing is already advanced, with
or without the backing of an independent production company. While the
project must fit within the category of experimental cinema, no other
criteria (length, nationality of filmmaker, etc.) will be imposed.

*EQUIPMENT AND TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE*

The Atelier 105 residency seeks to give experimental filmmakers access to
professional post-production facilities that are often out of their reach.
A fully-equipped workspace located in Light Cone's premises gives artists
access to a film scanner for the digitization of 16mm & 35mm film in 2K &
4K, an editing station, a color-correction monitor, as well as dedicated
computers for encoding video files and DCPs. This equipment has been
assembled by professionals to allow filmmakers to have the best possible
tools at their disposal. The filmmaker-in-residence also has full access to
Light Cone's documentation center and screening room.

A technical manager specialized in digital post-production is on hand to
assist the filmmaker. Filmmakers are free to work alone or accompanied by
their technicians. At the beginning of the residency, Light Cone's
technical manager can offer training in Media Composer, Final Cut Pro,
After Effects, or Resolve. If necessary, he can advise selected filmmakers
in advance to make sure their projects are compatible with the available
software.

*ARTISTIC ACCOMPANIMENT*

One of our main goals is to facilitate exchange, to share experience and to
create a productive working environment for filmmakers. Beyond technical,
logistical and practical assistance, the Light Cone team (made up of
filmmakers and/or programmers) also aims to offer artistic guidance and to
offer a genuine platform for experimental creation. Filmmakers are
encouraged to consult with our team concerning technical or artistic
issues, as well as general advice, and to show them the different stages of
the project.

The selection committee is composed of four permanent Light Cone members:
  - *Gisèle Rapp-Meichler*, president
  - *Emmanuel Lefrant*, director
  - *Eleni Gioti*, co-director
  - *Mariya Nikiforova*, coordinator of Atelier 105
and two external members who are picked among the programmers or filmmakers
working with Light Cone (their mandate cannot be renewed).
The external committee members for the first session of 2022 are:
  - *Brigitta Burger-Utzer*, co-founder and former managing director of
sixpackfilm, programmer
  - *Arindam Sen*, programmer (Cinéma Parenthèse, Close-Up, Berlinale
Forum, Fracto), film critic


*PUBLIC SCREENING*

Light Cone welcomes filmmakers to an alternative space for artistic
creation based on experimentation and exchange. A Scratch/Atelier 105
public screening with a selection of films produced during the 2021-2022
residencies will take place in 2022.
