Art School Dropouts will take to their platforms this weekend to host The In-House Grindhouse, an interactive livestream to showcase a trio of short-duration film blocks host to independent filmmakers around the web, spanning different genres. The New Jersey-based film troupe made the announcement just over a few weeks ago for a call to entries stamped for an April 5 deadline.
Seeing how the production industry is taking a big hit during this outbreak, we wanted see if we could help promote other content creators during quarantine. We hope that we can connect new viewers to great talent around the world and hope this helps our film community thrive and survive this pandemic.
Fans will also get to chat with the filmmakers during the experience. There are thirty-eight in total, many of which are favorites of our biweekly column, The Hit List, namely Bryan Sloyer’s Heart System, Nicholas Ortiz’s Black Betty, Andy Long’s Passage, Cassandra Ebner’s Life XP webseries, Jude Poyer’s Drug Den Master, Haile Lee’s The Broken Gear, Team Red/Rising Tiger collab Mulan: An East Side Story, and many, many more.
The livestreams for each film block are available below to bookmark for viewing on April 11, while you can click here for a full listing of each project with access to social media links and official websites therein.
