Virtual Cinema: The Athenrides, When Nuns attack and more…

Virtual Cinema is a new scheme for the making of high-quality short films that are suited to the new forms of digital video consumption. Films made under the scheme can be live-action or use any kind of animation technique.

The scheme aims to encourage exploration of fresh filmmaking ground, with no creative holds barred. Deliberately, no guidelines are offered at this stage with regard to content or style, though material likely to give serious offence is unlikely to be funded.

Brought to you by the Irish Film Board, in association with Wildwave Media, the Darklight Film Festival and the Wildlight Channel.

The Youtube channel for Virtual Cinema has been posting a fair few clips over the last week or two.

The Athenrides, Funniest thing ever or not? You decide:

Facebook Fatwa is fucked up:

There’s a few more videos, of very varying quality.
