The Digi60 Summer Institute of Film and Television is thrilled to announce we will be joined by Filmmaker Ingrid Veninger as a presenter ! Ingrid will be screening her latest film, The Animal Project (theanimalprojectmovie) as part of our evening screenings, then will spend the next day presenting to our participants. For this film, Veninger met with over one-hundred professional actors, with no conceit for a movie at the outset, only the impulse to make something. The core group of eight actors committed to the film without knowing anything about the roles they would play. Check out the Press Kit to see just how innovative the process was for this film: punkfilms.ca/animalproject/TheAnimalProject-PressKit.pdf But Ingrid is more than a filmmaker - part of her passion is to see other filmmakers create and express themselves. She came up with the 1K Wave in Toronto (watch an interview about it here - https://youtube/watch?v=wijgVmlPdCQ) as well as starting the pUNK Films Femmes Lab (thestar/entertainment/movies/2014/01/15/oscarwinner_melissa_leo_funds_canadian_female_screenwriting_project.html). Born in Bratislava and raised in Canada, Ingrid formed pUNK Films Inc. with a ‘nothing is impossible’ manifesto. In 2012, she was awarded the Jay Scott Prize from the Toronto Film Critics Association and executive produced 5 features films for $5000, launching the 1KWAVE in Toronto. Since 2008, Ingrid has produced six feature films: ONLY (TIFF 2008, Rome, Slamdance), NURSE.FIGHTER.BOY (TIFF 2008, 10 Genie Nominations, including Best Motion Picture), MODRA (TIFF 2010, Canada’s TOP TEN), i am a good person/i am a bad person (TIFF 2011, MoMA, Goa), THE END OF TIME (TIFF 2012, Locarno, IDFA), and THE ANIMAL PROJECT (TIFF 2013, Whistler, Bratislava, Goa, FEMCine Santiago, Sarasota, Nashville). #theanimalproject punkfilms.ca
