We have set a date!
We are pleased to announce that we have reached our required 30 film submissions, and set a date for our New Zealand screening event.
Ahem...the New Zealand screening event will be held on Tuesday the 23rd of September at Fat Eddies bar in Christchurch, New Zealand.
If you can't make it to the real world event then don't worry you can still join in. We will webcast the footage from the event live onto our website, along with live web-chat, vodcasting and blogging.
We have received some fantastic innovative edits of the stray Cinema footage from all over the world. Please vote for your favorite edits to determine which five films will be screened at this event.
Thanks to everyone who has participated thus far, and btw submissions don't close until the 23rd of July...
Thanks Victoria University!

I would like to say a huge big thank-you to the Victoria University digital media design students who recently submitted a bunch of films to Stray Cinema.
There are some creative and unique stories that have been told with our footage, so please take the time to watch and comment on a few.
One of my personal favourites was how to get free babysitting from Soph120...however my vote is as valuable as yours, what do you think of it?
Stray Cinema can now independantly host film submissions
By daniel, 2 months ago - No Comments
Today has been an important day for Stray Cinema. We have now reached a total of 41 film submissions surpassing the 30 submission target for setting a screening date. The screening event this year will take place 6 months from now in Christchurch, New Zealand, where the footage was filmed. Stay tuned for an official announcement on a confirmed date, time and venue.
Yesterday we launched a series of updates for the website. The main feature introduced is hosting of films ourselves without the need for YouTube. This gives us greater flexibility and allows the film submission process to be more streamlined.
I have been carefully monitoring all submissions with the new system and following up on some issues that arose earlier. Currently everything is working as expected and there are no known problems. If you run into problems submitting a film or any other task on the site, an error will be recorded and followed up as soon as possible.
Do not hesitate to contact us if you experience odd behaviour with the website. Chances are we don't know about the problem, and if we don't know about it we can't fix it!

our editing guru dan is back with a cupids mashup remix. actually it is a joint effort by dan and paul of Anaesthesia Associates - an excerpt from a live performance in london (uk) and taupo (nz) simultaneously.
this is a mashup of their own original track 'infinite' with outkast's 'happy valentines day' and additional audio from guns n roses, spice girls, nin, and additional video from sex and the city and various miscellaneous romantic comedies.
enjoy!
