Introduction:
The New Art Dealer’s Alliance (NADA) and The Big Screen Project present a VIDEO EXPERIMENT, “One Shot” at the New Museum’s Festival of Ideas for a New City. The Festival will take place on Saturday, May 7, 2011, from 11AM-7PM on or around the Bowery between Houston and Spring Street (exact location TBA).

The inspiration for this “experiment” is Ok Go!‘s White Knuckles music video:

BTW: We are in conversation with Ok Go! and the band members might be the judges!!

This is an open call for submissions from performers: artists, musicians, dancers, etc… who would like to create a video in our booth during the festival. The HD video camera and camera person will be provided, however you are responsible for any props, costumes, lights, music and choreography. Six of the proposed submissions will be selected to shoot during the festival on May 7. One hour will be allotted for each participant. The allotted hour will include set up, shooting and striking the set. You will have the opportunity to shoot as many takes as you need within the hour; the best take will be selected (uncut).

The final length of the video should not exceed 5 minutes. A winner will be chosen and posted on NADA’s website and premiered at the Big Screen Project, a 30 x 16.5 ft HD format outdoor LED screen on 6th avenue between 29th and 30th street in NYC in a 10,000 sq. ft. public plaza. Deadline for submissions is April 15, 2011.
