  • Super8 Militia

    super 8 militia

    The Super 8 Militia is an organization for those urban guerrilla filmmakers of the Bay Area looking to shoot on the small film gauge. The process of making a movie is a team effort. The members of the militia want to help you achieve your artistic goals. Working on celluloid within a modest budget is always a challenge. We strive to help you meet this challenge of finding the right arsenal for your cinematic needs. Headquartered at ATA, meetings are held on the first Tuesday of every month at7:30pm.

    Contact militia@super8mm.org for any questions concerning the telecine process, or if you are interested in transferring your super 8 film.

  • In The Dark

    Rolling blackouts, the Enron scandal, the rush to build new power plants–California’s energy crisis is big news. In the Dark goes behind the headlines to examine the consequences of leaving energy policy to the politicians. From Marcia Sims, who struggles in the shadows of San Francisco’s Potrero Power Plant to nurse her dying sister and to prevent the construction of an even bigger power plant in her neighborhood, to the Latino community of South Gate, in Southeast Los Angeles, California residents are confronting the effects of a build-first, question-later power policy. In The Dark looks at the larger picture of energy policy, the viability of renewable energy and the changes possible by bringing energy issues to the electorate.
