It’s a super-scary assignment: The Los Angeles Chapter of AICE has issued its call for entries with a horror movie theme and a “Tricks or Treats” program title. Full details on the competition can be found on the Los Angeles Camp Kuleshov page on the AICE web site HERE.
The L.A. Camp Kuleshov competition is open to assistant editors, audio engineers and broadcast graphic designers working at AICE Los Angeles member companies. The deadline for submitting entries is 11:59 PM (PDT) on Monday, Oct 14.
The assignment for Assistant Editors is to select one or any combination of the films “Warm Bodies,” “Mama,” “Texas Chainsaw Massacre” (the vintage 1974 version, not the remake) and “Saw,” and cut a :90 second trailer for an original new film, whether it be a mash-up or new genre.
The Camp Kuleshov L.A. competition for Assistant Audio Engineers requires that they create an original sound design for a clip from the 2013 TV movie “Sharknado.” The clip can be serious, comedic, dramatic, or any other genre and can only use audio from the four films that the assistant editors are using as source material for their trailers.
The assignment for Assistant Designers is to create an original opening title design using content from all five titles in the assistant editor and assistant audio engineer competitions. The title design must include the Camp Kuleshov logo and the title “Tricks and Treats, 2013 AICE Los Angeles Camp Kuleshov Competition.” It can be serious, comedic, dramatic, or any other genre.
The Camp Kuleshov Los Angeles Awards show will be held Tuesday, October 29, 2013 at a venue to be named later. Assistants interested in entering should contact Jamie Perritt at Cosmo Street if they have any questions. She can be reached at 310.828.6666 or at jamie@cosmostreet.com.
