B-Boys & Movie Night
Jul 24, 2009
Buffalo is certainly known for its hush hush music scene and I even heard a rumor that the Director of Marketing at New Era used to be one of the hottest B-Boys in Niagara Falls. Well we caught wind last week of a competition going down at Verve, above Hyatts on Main Street tomorrow night. See the video below to get a taste in your mouth for their sweet style.
7 to midnite, Saturday, July 25th at Verve, $5
As luck would have it, Squeaky Wheel’s 6th Annual and Outdoor animation festival lands on the same night! Rockin’! View a mix of animated shorts by various filmmakers, including works from France, Germany, United Kingdom and the United States, that showcase a range of animation processes from lo-tech to cutting edge.
Selected artists include “Sorry I’m Late!” a magical and wildly creative pixilation film by London artist Tomas Mankovsky (Blink Productions), “Simon’s Cat,” a sarcastic celebration of the joys and annoyances of cat ownership by London animation artist Simon Tofield (Tandem Films), “Godzilla Hey!” by Ithaca artists Megan Roberts-Ghirardo and Raymond Ghirardo featuring a dancing stop-animation Godzilla figure, and the award-winning short “I Met the Walrus,” based on and uses the original audio from an interview of John Lennon by 14-year-old Jerry Levitan in 1969 by Josh Raskin. Local animation artists include UB Dept. of Media Study Media Study graduate student Mascha_scha, and SUNY Fredonia alumni Lisa Brotz. Pack popcorn, beer and a blanket, it’s movie night in Days Park!
9 PM, Days Park, free!
Rain location will be Squeaky Wheel
And killer tattoo to send you off for the weekend:
