VIDEO DORK:
Video Dork is a monthly short film competition held at The Tank. That’s right, a COMPETITION. Each month, there will be a WINNER, and there will be PRIZES. Competing filmmakers will bring DVDs or MiniDV tapes containing films of any genre of five minutes or less to the Tank. The first hour or so of material to arrive will be screened for the assembled masses. At the end of the screening hour, a brief intermission will allow time for all those in attendance to vote for the winner of the evening’s prizes.

The mission of the series is to present a wide range of work, in regards to both content and aesthetics, from New York based, national, and international artists, to a general audience in a welcoming environment.
