Sign up to experience movement and Virtual Reality (VR) with Nancy and Emmalena before day two of our screenings!! These two have been working towards a new VR piece involving dance. If you want a chance to experience what its all about, sign up bellow for a time slot, or show up on the day to witness a new kind of movement on screen. 

There will be two stations set up, one station will be available for pre-registration, and the other on a first come first serve basis, each with 10 minute time slots, so make sure to pre-register or arrive early to get to see the work! Please arrive 5 minutes early for your registered time. You will receive an e-mail confirmation once you have signed up. 

Join us after day one of our screenings for a drink and conversation with our host at the Lululemon Lab! This is an all ages event and opportunity to chat with the artists, talk with others about your favourite films of the night and watch more movement on screen creations made by youth around the world. These films you won’t see on our big screen, so stop by to catch a glimpse of more amazing creations! Here, you will also see an interactive installation by Chimerik (Sammy Chien and Shang-Han Chien) with footage from our FORMations Jam if you weren’t able to make it.
Drinks are on the Lab! Yes, this means FREE drinks! Bring your friends, family and your curiosities to the event, introduce yourselves to someone new and watch more films! What do you have to lose?
Note:
This is a licensed event and open to all ages. Please bring valid ID to show at the bar.

What is FORMations? Follow the steps bellow to see what its all about.

Step 1: Attend! 
Emerging filmmakers, movers and directors (or anyone interested) can meet at the heart of Vancouver in the Woodwards Atrium. Bring a camera, smart phone, dance moves, skateboards or even a slack line! This is an open and public environment for artists of all ages to come together with their cameras and movement expertise/concepts, connect with fellow participants, collaborate and create on the spot. Artists across disciplines can meet and get to know one another while working on any ideas they want to bring to the table.
Participants will also have the opportunity to upload and select their favourit footage from the Jam into a shared cloud storage, so that files can be shared and dispersed amongst artists! Feel free to come and go within the 3 hours as you please! We suggest to Pre-register bellow to get right in on the jamming, but also feel free to sign up on the day of the event! 

Step 2: Create!
With this footage participants (who attended the event, or not) will have 5 days to create a short film of their own using the footage taken from this event!

Step 3: Submit!
Submit your creations by 5pm on June 15th, and our jury will select one film to be featured before each of our screenings on the big screen at SFU Woodwards! Post these onto Instagram and tag @formvancouver with hashtags #FORMations2017 #FORMationscontest #FORM2017 and/or e-mail your shorts to info@f-o-r-m.ca to be entered! 

The footage will also be uploaded to be compiled, edited and projected into an interactive installation at our opening party at the Lululemon Lab created by Chimerik!

Join us for a fun afternoon of celebrating movement and film leading up to our main programming on the 16th and 17th.
