If you’re looking for a fun film screening and live music event that includes a.c. this weekend, FilmShop, a local filmmakers collective, is hosting their annual showcase and party at Rough Trade on Saturday.
The evening features short films created by FilmShop members, each with their own unique take on a different theme each year. This year’s theme is “Spoiler Alert.”
Along with narrative and documentary shorts, the evening will include a block of VR films, curated by filmmaker Alex Suber. FilmShop members’ films have screened at festivals across the world – from Berlinale, to Dances with Films, to the Tribeca Film Festival – and have been featured in Filmmaker Magazine, The Hollywood Reporter, and The New York Times.
In addition to films, the evening includes musical performances by Brooklyn-based Soul artist Madison McFerrin, NYC-based duo the Salt Cathedral, and DJ Kerry Lacy. Not to mention, a themed photo booth and a silent auction with donated prizes for the filmmaker and the film lover alike.
