A taste of the upcoming feature documentary, Occupy Love. This is a community funded film. Please support our crowd funding campaign at http://www.indiegogo.com/Occupy-Love

#WhileWeWatch OWS documentary film premiering January 11th 2012

#WhileWeWatch is the gripping portrait of the #OccupyWallSt media revolution. Citizens came together at Zuccotti Park with energy, intelligence and guts to impassion their message, "We are the 99%."

#WhileWeWatch discovers the #OWS media team who had no fear of a critical city government, big corporations, hostile police, or a lagging main stream media to tell their story.
 
Through rain, snow, grueling days, sleeping on concrete; they pumped out exhilarating ideas to the world. Fueled with little money, they relied on the power of Twitter, texting, Wi-Fi, posters, Tumblr, live streams, YouTube, Facebook, dramatic marches, drumbeats and chants.
 
We witness a new dawn with the power of social media.

Please join the Brooklyn Rail and UnionDocs for a collaborative (yet structured) event about the feature documentary in-progress: 99% - The Occupy Wall Street Collaborative Film.  The event will consist of a screening of material followed by a moderated Q&A with both NYC-based participating filmmakers and contributors across the U.S. via Skype about the opportunities and challenges in making a collaborative documentary about a current event.  It will then be opened to questions from the audience followed by an informal reception. Space is limited so please arrive promptly.

The Rail's Williams Cole will introduce and the Q&A will be moderated by Christopher Campbell, film critic for the Documentary Channel, IndieWIRE, and Movies.com, where he writes the bi-weekly Doc Talk column.

99% - The Occupy Wall Street Collaborative Film is a feature documentary film spearheaded by over 50 independent filmmakers, photographers, and videographers across the country. The end product will be a compelling, cinematic, resonant, and honest portrait of the Occupy Wall Street movement. Founded by NYC filmmakers Audrey Ewell and Aaron Aites, the project currently counts among its collaborative many award-winning documentary producers, directors, musicians, and editors (as well as PR people and distributors) including Michael Galinsky and Suki Hawley (Battle for Brooklyn, Horns and Halos), Ava DuVernay (distributor of independent black films via AFFRM, director/producer I Will Follow), Aaron Yanes as supervising editor (a frequent Barry Levinson editor, he's also edited many award-winning features and documentaries, from Sundance Grand Jury Prize winner Padre Nuestro to James Toback's Cannes prize-winning Tyson), Tyler Brodie (Another Earth, Terri), Bob Ray (Total Badass), and many more.
