If you are a low-to-no budget filmmaker looking for a place to exhibit your work that isn’t shrouded in red tape and self-serving intentions, look no further. Formerly known as the REwind International Media Festival, or “Camp REwind” for short, this annual event will be held in Palatine, Illinois for the third year in a row. Over the past seven years, the festival has acted as a showcase for low-to-no
budget filmmaking. In 2004, founding The festival’s goal is to represent the passionate and truly independent work of those making films without substantial financial backing. |
organization REwind Video changed the name
of the festival when they joined forces with fellow no-budget filmmaking site
MicrocinemaScene. The merger helped better promote and expand the reach of the
festival to the ever-growing community of Microcinema filmmakers. In 2005, the
Palatine-based production company, CNGM Pictures, under the sponsorship of
Theatre Nebula, took over hosting responsibilities from the first hosts, Linn
Productions, who had sponsored the festival in South Dakota. In 2007, Theatre Nebula of Palatine takes over the reigns of the festival for
the year. Plans are currently being made for the 2008 Festival to possibly
take place in Austin, Texas.
