1. What’s Up?
Hello All! I hope your midterms and mid-semester films are going well. As you
know, the newsletters will go out every other week from now until the end of the
semester. If you miss a newsletter, you can find the active newsletter at
http://rtfcage.com/newsletter under ―For this week’s Newsletter, click here.‖
Don’t forget to send your crew calls to the Cage: cage@austin.utexas.edu
I am also currently inputting more and more information, grants, and festivals into
the website so please check the new Cage website for helpful information:
http://rtfcage.com
Also The Department of Radio-Television-Film is in need of some of your
feedback. If you are a current Undergraduate student or have graduated with
your Bachelors please take the time to do this survey
http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=L1eNnitQ_2btj_2frIC4KFBu7w_3d_3d
.
I hope everyone’s week is going well.
~Sarah
-------------------------------------------------------------------
2. Announcing The Cage’s First time Film Festival Fund
The Cage: The Student Production Resource Center was awarded $500 from the
College of Communication CCS Career Program Partnership Fund in September
2009. This money has been issued so that the Cage may enact the First Time
Film Festival Fund.
First Time Film Festival Fund is a small fund that will be given to ten students
each semester in order to be used on film festival entry fees. Film festival entry
fees can vary from $10-$100. These costs can stack up quickly and become
daunting. Film festival participation is very important for film students because it
helps establish an identity within the community, allows room for networking,
helps create a realistic portrait of the kind of films that are being made and how
the industry reacts to these films, and helps give prestige to the film students, the
Department of Radio-Television-Film, and the College of Communication.
With the First Time Film Festival Fund, the Cage: Student Production Resource
Center hopes to help apprehensive and preoccupied filmmakers get their work
out in the world. The First Time Film Festival Fund is important because film
festival participation is directly related to a filmmaker’s career exploration and
development. If a filmmaker does not get his/her work seen, then there is no way
he/she will ever be successful.
This award is specifically to encourage film festival participation. Ten students
will receive $50 to assist with festival entry fees. Exact funds will vary from
semester to semester.
More information will be available online at www.rtfcage.com next week.
Applications open Tuesday October 20th
Application Deadline November 20th
Awards Announced December 1st
-------------------------------------------------------------------
3. New Locker Policy!!! PLEASE READ!
Beginning January 2010 all graduate Teaching Assistants will be required to pay
for their use of lockers. The fee for one locker will be $10 a semester. There will
be no exceptions.
Faculty and Staff will still be compensated one locker.
Also beginning 2010 the Cage will be allowed to bill your locker dues to your
What I Owe page.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
4. Your film festival participation!
The Department of Radio-Television-Film and the Student Production Resource
Center would like to keep track of all the film festivals that RTF students' films
have been accepted and screened at, along with any awards that may have been
awarded.
Please send your name, film title, class in which the film was produced, film
festival, and year along with any awards awarded to the Cage at
cage@austin.utexas.edu AND to Stephanie Crouch swcrouch@mail.utexas.edu.

26. Seeking Video Editor
Hi, I'm looking for a video editor for a project I'm working on. I recently went to
Mississippi and interviewed people who lived during segregation. I want to edit it
and compile it into a video to support a book my wife has written. The interviews
were done on an inexpensive digital camera with video capability in AVI format,
so they're really low quality. I need to have it edited, cleaned up, etc.
I'd like to hire a student, grad or undergrad, who can help me with this work. I
think it'll take about 10 hours to do some basic stuff. But then I hope they'd be
able to also give me some basic instruction in Adobe Premiere Elements so I can
do a little more stuff myself. Could you recommend a student, grad or undergrad,
who might be interested in some video editing work on the side?
Thanks, Oren Rosenthal, oren@orenrosenthal.com

Contact: Erin Vargo erinavargo@gmail.com
Fitness video demo that will be used to illustrate a new type of fitness video on
the market (it will not be sold). However, the demo in mind is a world apart from
most fitness videos, because it is set to be filmed more like a music video.
The total time for the demo is about 6 minutes. Music, talent, props, and
locations (in Georgetown) are all set. The Production needs students that can
film and edit, offering any unique perspectives on the cinematography or other
creative input. Meals will be provided.

29. Short Film needs home
Hi everyone. I'm a writer based in south Austin. I have some short films I've
written that I would like to see come to life. These shorts are free for anyone
eager to work on a new project. If you decide to submit these for competition and
end up making money we can talk about percentages then. Overall I don't care.
Like I said, I want to see them come to life. These shorts are 100% original and
range from 5min to 20 min. I don't have time to produce these myself as I am
very busy. Please let me know if you're interested in working on a new project
and ill be happy to send you a synopsis and sample. Thanks.

[D] SCREENING AND EVENTS
-------------------------------------------------------------------
31. LA HORA FRIA: CLASSIC MEXICAN HORROR
Featuring a Selection of the Best Horror Films of Mexican Cinema
October 21 to November 6, 2009. FREE!
As part of the Mexican Bicentennial celebrations, with the generous support of
Alameda Films, Cine Las Americas will showcase a special collection of Mexican
horror films at the MACC. The horror genre was not very popular during the first
decades of Mexican cinema, yet during the late fifties, an important group of
producers, writers and directors ventured with considerable success into the
making of horror films.
Taking cues from Hollywood and from gothic literature, the horror films of
Mexican filmmakers such as Abel Salazar, Fernando Méndez, and Rafael
Baledón, recreated classics of the genre in a unique Mexican context, offering
new interpretations of classic characters like Dracula, Frankenstein, Dr. Jekyll
and Mr. Hyde, and the Werewolf, and incorporating Mexican folk tales like "La
Llorona." Most of these films were released in the U.S. during the fifties, thanks
to their high production value, and the stellar interpretations of artists like Carmen
Montejo, Rosita Arenas, Rita Macedo, Ofelia Guilmáin, Germán Robles, Enrique
Rambal, and Enrique Lucero.
Presented by Austin Parks and Recreation and the Mexican American Cultural
Center.
LA HORA FRIA: CLASSIC MEXICAN HORROR

32. Texas Book Festival
October 31 - November 1
http://www.texasbookfestival.org
at the State Capital Building
The Texas Book Festival celebrates authors and their contributions to the culture
of literacy, ideas and imagination.
The Texas Book Festival was established in 1995 by First Lady Laura Bush, a
former librarian and an ardent advocate of literacy. Mrs. Bush created a task
force to plan the book festival to honor Texas authors, promote the joys of
reading and serve to benefit the state's public libraries. The first Festival took
place at the Capitol in November 1996; the Festival has quickly evolved into one
of the premier literary events in the country, annually hosting over 200 Texas and
nationally known authors. In 2006, more than 45,000 visitors participated in a
week-end of author readings and presentations, panel discussions, book
signings, and musical entertainment at the State Capitol in Austin.

33. REEL WOMEN Presents "Speed Mentoring"
REEL WOMEN WORKSHOP
Sat, 31 Oct, 2009 10:00 AM - 1:00 PM
REEL WOMEN has once again come up with something brand-new and oh-so-
exciting! You've heard of "speed dating"? Well, this is SPEED MENTORING,
except you're going to get 15 minutes of one-on-one time with successful
professionals and not get stuck with any "duds"!
We're doing this 3 SATURDAYS in October!
We'll start out with a group introductory session so that you can "meet the
mentors" and hear about their skills, talents and experience; then we'll let you
pick their brains on the subjects of YOUR choice. We urge you to think of
questions and come prepared to make the most of your time with each mentor.
"Think outside the set or studio". How can a talent agent help a documentary
producer? Well, you might need a unique or known voice to narrate your project.
How can a film reviewer mentor an aspiring actor? Maybe by pointing out
impressive and winning performances from recent and long-ago films? That's
just a few ideas to get you started.
In addition to the mentoring, think of what a wonderful opportunity this is to meet
people who are out there actually "doing it" -- that is, working in "the biz". These
contacts can prove invaluable to you in the future, but you'll have immediate
access to people who can give you advice and answers.
NOTICE: Not all mentors will be at all three sessions, and the schedule is
subject to change, but there will be 10-12 of the announced mentors at each
session.
COST: $20 per week for RW members; $30 for others. All three sessions (paid
in advance) for $50 members, $75 others.
Non-members can join and get a $5 discount off the regular $35 membership
fee.
RESERVATIONS ARE NECESSARY. If we don't have enough participants sign
up, then we'll have to cancel the session.
