Of the things I’m most bummed to miss in February, the Disposable Film Festival takes the cake. San Francisco’s recently founded festival will highlight work captured on one-time use digital video cameras, webcams, point and shoot digital cameras, cell phones, screen capture software, and the like. The weekend’s series of events, art directed by interactive visual designer Rebecca Bortman, will include selections from the hundreds of submissions shot with non-professional video capturing equipment and will end with a panel about this new filmmaking phenomenon. In case you can’t make it to the screening of the New York film collective Red Bucket Films’ feature “Buttons” this Friday (the trailer will have you tapping your toes until then), the competitive shorts program showcasing “the cream of the disposable-media crop” at the Roxie Theater is not to be missed.
