RIPFEST is a guerrilla filmmaking process where seven teams of professionals who have never met are given sixteen days to create original ten-minute films from scratch. RIPFEST is unique in having a regular program designed to create short Movie Musicals. For RIPFEST #8, four films will be made in NY the others in LA. All will be shown at each screening as well as a behind-the-scenes documentary.
RIPFEST has attracted top talent looking for a creative challenge that the commercial world cannot provide. This year the participants include artists with careers in television, film and Broadway, including: Writers: Rachel Axler (The Daily Show), Bob Kushell (The Simpsons), Stuart Ross (Forever Plaid); Composers: Jonathan Grossman (Joan of Arcadia), Mark Savage (Naked Boys Singing); Directors: John Henry Davis (HBO’s “Oz”), Paul Lazarus (Everybody Loves Raymond), Len Jenkin (Emmy nom., 3 Obies), Kirsten Sanderson (Public Theatre: First Lady Suite); Editor: Mark Senter (Peabody Award); Actors: Jeff Blumenkrantz (B’wy: A Class Act), Darius DeHaas (RENT), Ellen Folley (female vocal on Meatloaf’s “Paradise by the Dashboard Lights”), Aimee Miles (Spiderman 3), Benjamin Schrader (Bwy: Tom Sawyer, Big River), Michael Winther (Bw’y: Mama Mia). All participants subject to change.
Raw Impressions is also THE place to find the next big thing. We worked with DJ Javerbaum years before he won his two Emmy’s as head writer of The Daily Show, Rachel Sheinkin years before she won her Tony for …Spelling Bee, and Mora Stephens before she won the Independent Spirit Award for Best Feature made for under $500,000. Come see who’s next!
