Event
Portland Rising Film Festival
Portland Rising Film Festival was created with a focus on how to get an idea from brain to screen across multiple platforms. We have lined up several workshops featuring various Above-The-Line filmmakers as well as Union Representatives presenting on what it takes to create content the right way, the safe way, and the smart way. With a shared spotlight on Animation and Transmedia content creators as well as Feature length and Shorts/Trailers we have crafted categories to serve the wide range of New Media content. As we select participants to screen, they will be invited to present on their process and have an opportunity to meet and greet the attendees. We expect to give high educational and networking value to the guests and filmmakers of the festival with clear, direct, truthful information given in the interests of learning to make a living in this industry.
Clinton Street Theater A landmark of Portland cinema history, The Clinton Street Theater is one of the oldest operating moviehouses in the United States. Opening in 1915 as the Clinton, the theater became the 26th Avenue Theatre in 1945 and the Encore in 1969. In 1976 it reverted to its original name. Although the theater has undergone many changes over the years, it remains an intimate single screen venue with the capacity for 230 patrons and a state of the art sound and lighting system. Famous for its long-standing exhibition of the Rocky Horror Picture Show, the theater is currently a magnet for independent / revival films. In April of 2012, the Clinton Street Theater was purchased and revitalized by Roger and Lani Jo Leigh. It has a revolving cast of volunteers and film freaks who enjoy helping support its existence. Zarr Studios We are pleased to announce Zarr Studios as the venue where we will hold workshops and VIP Screenings each day of the festival. With almost 16,000 square feet of space including an intimate 33 seat screening theater and luxurious amenities, our attendees and guests will feel right at home. Guardian Games with over 10,000 sq. ft. of gaming and event space, it is by far Portland's Grandest Gaming destination and is centrally located to downtown and very close to both Zarr Studios and Clinton Street Theater.
Join us August 14th and 15th!
