Forum Rules (Everyone Must Read!!!)

1] What you CAN NOT post.

You agree, through your use of this service, that you will not use this forum to post any material which is:
- abusive
- vulgar
- hateful
- harassing
- personal attacks
- obscene

You also may not:
- post images that are too large (max is 500*500px)
- post any copyrighted material unless the copyright is owned by you or cited properly.
- post in UPPER CASE, which is considered yelling
- post messages which insult the Armenians, Armenian culture, traditions, etc
- post racist or other intentionally insensitive material that insults or attacks another culture (including Turks)

The Ankap thread is excluded from the strict rules because that place is more relaxed and you can vent and engage in light insults and humor. Notice it's not a blank ticket, but just a place to vent. If you go into the Ankap thread, you enter at your own risk of being clowned on.
What you PROBABLY SHOULD NOT post...
Do not post information that you will regret putting out in public. This site comes up on Google, is cached, and all of that, so be aware of that as you post. Do not ask the staff to go through and delete things that you regret making available on the web for all to see because we will not do it. Think before you post!


2] Use descriptive subject lines & research your post. This means use the SEARCH.

This reduces the chances of double-posting and it also makes it easier for people to see what they do/don't want to read. Using the search function will identify existing threads on the topic so we do not have multiple threads on the same topic.

3] Keep the focus.

Each forum has a focus on a certain topic. Questions outside the scope of a certain forum will either be moved to the appropriate forum, closed, or simply be deleted. Please post your topic in the most appropriate forum. Users that keep doing this will be warned, then banned.

4] Behave as you would in a public location.

This forum is no different than a public place. Behave yourself and act like a decent human being (i.e. be respectful). If you're unable to do so, you're not welcome here and will be made to leave.

5] Respect the authority of moderators/admins.

Public discussions of moderator/admin actions are not allowed on the forum. It is also prohibited to protest moderator actions in titles, avatars, and signatures. If you don't like something that a moderator did, PM or email the moderator and try your best to resolve the problem or difference in private.

6] Promotion of sites or products is not permitted.

Advertisements are not allowed in this venue. No blatant advertising or solicitations of or for business is prohibited.
This includes, but not limited to, personal resumes and links to products or
services with which the poster is affiliated, whether or not a fee is charged
for the product or service. Spamming, in which a user posts the same message repeatedly, is also prohibited.

7] We retain the right to remove any posts and/or Members for any reason, without prior notice.


- PLEASE READ -

Members are welcome to read posts and though we encourage your active participation in the forum, it is not required. If you do participate by posting, however, we expect that on the whole you contribute something to the forum. This means that the bulk of your posts should not be in "fun" threads (e.g. Ankap, Keep & Kill, This or That, etc.). Further, while occasionally it is appropriate to simply voice your agreement or approval, not all of your posts should be of this variety: "LOL Member213!" "I agree."
If it is evident that a member is simply posting for the sake of posting, they will be removed.


8] These Rules & Guidelines may be amended at any time. (last update September 17, 2009)

If you believe an individual is repeatedly breaking the rules, please report to admin/moderator.

    ARMENIAN FILMMAKERS PRESENTED
    at the

    Sixth Annual Silver Lake Film Festival
    March 23-31, 2006
    Los Angeles


    January 16th, 2006

    Press Release: For Immediate Release

    Silver Lake Film Festival – Los Angeles’ leading independent film festival – presents its 6th annual edition, March 23-31, 2006. The 2006 festival boasts an extensive line-up of independently produced feature-length and short films and videos from filmmakers around the world. In addition, this year the festival has invited Armenian cinema specialist, actor/author Nora Armani to curate a special program of Armenian films along with a line-up of curated series reflecting that eclectic, bohemian and multicultural roots of the greater Silver Lake community.

    Recently honored as one of the Top 5 films festivals in Southern California, Silver Lake Film Festival is one of the largest showcases of independent cinema in the world. The previous edition presented more than 285 features, documentaries and short films as well as related arts programming including live musical performances, panel discussions, performance art and art exhibitions.

    Armenian film lovers and professionals are urged to support the Armenian series through sponsorship, promotion and festival attendance. The success of this program depends on community support and can lead to the annual inclusion of the Armenian program in this mainstream festival; a perfect showcase for independent film makers of Armenian descent to bring their work to professionals in the film capital of the world.

    Once again, the primary screening venue for the festival shall be the state-of-the-art ArcLight Cinemas Hollywood with additional programming taking place throughout the “Eastside” communities of Los Angeles (Silver Lake, Los Feliz, Echo Park) and downtown. Silver Lake Film Festival offers a unique opportunity to businesses wishing to expand beyond their usual clientele by promoting their services in a highly visible and affluent setting frequented by over 30000 festival goers.

    Sponsorship and promotional packages offer excellent visibility in more ways than one: inclusion in the festival catalogue, banners, on screen projected logos before and after screenings, free passes to all festival events and screenings, invitation to events with celebrities and film professionals.



    Film selections made by the festival committee and program curators will be announced at the end of February. Some of the curated programs in the festival include:

    • Green Films: A series of documentary films that explore the environmental movement and the urban landscape. Guest curator: The honorable Eric Garcetti, president, Los Angeles City Council.

    • Nuevas Voces: The first showcase in the film capital of the world of the work of American filmmakers of Latino descent. Co-sponsored by the National Association of Latino Independent Producers.

    • Asian Fusion: A focus on contemporary Asian films that incorporate Occidental motifs and themes but maintain their distinctive Oriental origins.

    • Spotlight on Armenian Film Makers: A program featuring filmmakers of Armenian descent regardless of their country of citizenship. Guest curator: Nora Armani, Actor, Author & Armenian cinema specialist.

    • State of the Union: The first-ever presentation in the U.S. by a major film festival of the American labor movement with a particular focus on the current transitional moment in labor history. Co-sponsored by AFL-CIO.

    • Cut From The Same Cloth: A look at how independent cinema and independent fashion have overlapped and influenced each other, and the public.
