work. The program will feature short experimental films of no more

promoting submissions.

Attached you will find submission forms containing pertinent
information regarding the show.

We would like to attend any open screenings of student work that you

Collaboration Agreement Notes
-every voice heard, consideration for personalities and opinions
-alternative ways for voice is equally heard
-the role of a vote as last resort, not always best resolution
-reach an agreement through dialogue and compromise rather than
majority/minority

-shared responsibility and all roles are evenly distributed
-varying talents could be efficient, but sharing/teaching talents
should be welcomed
-positive team mentality and group motivation, setting up guidelines

-clear guidelines for what we are working towards and all should be
working towards a collective goal
-no secrets
-use blog and meetings for communication
-create a paper trail for group decisions, pick someone to
communicate it to the whole group
-there is a responsibility to not only be heard, but to speak
-complete confidentiality within the group
-want a process that is totally respectful to the work

-might have a process where everyone writes an opinion before anyone
says anything

Viewing time slots from Natalie

So after looking at everyone's schedule, I have composed three time slots. I
think that Kathy wanted everyone to be able to make at least 2 of them for
two hours at a time, but if you could make four hours a week, whether it is
in one time slot or another, I think that would be fine as well. If for some
reason you can't, can you please e-mail me back telling me the particular
time conflict you have with which slot. Thanks guys! See you on thursday!

Name of the program?

Yeah, so we are trying to finalize the submission form and I realize that we have yet to come up with a name for our program.  Does anyone have any ideas?  In the meantime I am going to be using "Experimental Film Program."
