2) SUBMIT TO CINEKINK!
Call for Entries - CineKink 2016
CineKink --"the kinky film festival"--is seeking films, videos and, for the first time, original digital series, of any length and genre, that explore and celebrate a wide diversity of sexuality. Dedicated to the recognition and encouragement of sex-positive and kink-friendly depictions in film and television, we're looking to blur some boundaries and will be considering offerings drawn from both Hollywood and beyond, with works ranging from documentary to drama, camp comedy to artsy experimental, mildly spicy to quite explicit--and everything in between.
Cutting across orientations, topics covered at CineKink have included--but are by no means limited to--BDSM, leather and fetish, swinging, non-monogamy and polyamory, roleplay and gender bending, sex work and sex geekery. Basically, as long as it involves consenting adults, just about anything celebrating sex as a right of self expression is fair game. (Far be it from us to define "kink" - if you think your work might make sense in this context, please send it along!)
Discounted, early-bird entries have a post-marked deadline of October 9th, while the regular deadline is November 13th and the final deadline is December 4th.
Entry fees are waived for CineKink-alumni directors submitting by the “regular” deadline.
For more information, please visit http://cinekink.com/programs-and-events/call-for-entries.
3) REMEMBERING CANDIDA ROYALLE
A memorial for pioneering filmmaker Candida Royalle will take place in San Francisco on October 25. More information is available on Facebook: http://buff.ly/1RlbcAD
Plans are also in the works for an NYC memorial on November 22. More information will be forwarded as it becomes available.
Several CineKink alumni filmmakers spoke about the important role that Candida played, in both their lives and in their work ,for a piece about her passing in Filmmaker Magazine.
"Candida Royalle was the gold standard for a different kind of porn. Everyone who makes couples’ porn, porn for women, or feminist porn is informed by her work," said Tristan Taormino. "She was the very first and made so many people’s careers possible, including mine. She paved the way for so many women in the industry and did it with a generosity toward other female filmmakers unlike anyone else I’ve met."
"She was the pioneer who proved that women were interested in porn and would happily buy it," said Ms. Naughty. "She was my 'porny godmother' — a trailblazer who paved the way for me and for others like me to make our own brand of porn. I am forever grateful for her work, her intelligence, her belief in free speech and her compassion."
And according to Jennifer Lyon Bell, "Candida was a true trailblazer, creating 100% unique porn for women and couples at a time when the concept of women as sexually independent beings (and as consumers of actual explicit movies) was not just bemusing, but shocking and appalling to many. Candida deflected naysayers, including a lot of angry feminists, with grace and poise."
