Rooftop Cinema soundtrack
There's no denying that a soundtrack can make a film. It can also make your night and, if you're lucky, make your summer. This year Rooftop Cinema has got some sound advice from Sophie Brous - musician (jazz, chanteuse), new Program Director of the Melbourne International Jazz Festival and presenter/broadcaster on Triple R (Dance Cadaverous, Wednesday nights 10pm-midnight 102.
Rooftop Crepes
Far superior to its fat little friend the pancake, the crepe has had a long and successful cinematic career. Its lunar resemblance has made it a popular prop; indeed, crepes have featured famously in the moon landing, E.T. and Teen Wolf. From this week, Rooftop Cinema will be serving them, both sweet and savoury, both outdoors and up seven storeys, with a side menu of Piadina.
Rooftop Cinema Gift Voucher
There is great joy in giving gifts... but not always so much joy in finding them. Especially not if you have to do it in a sweaty, drunken, Christmas-party-fuelled city. Or if you're buying for a person you don't really know that well. Behold this year's Rooftop Cinema Gift Voucher - potentially the finest Yuletide solution short of converting to Judaism.
Film Appreciation Nights
MIFF said it, democracy relies upon it, the great forums of our global internets prove it every day... everyone's a critic. And this year at Rooftop Cinema, everyone (well, not everyone, but, you know, some people who Rooftop Cinema emailed a while ago) is a programmer too.
Each Wednesday a different host, or bunch of hosts will present a film that inspires them in some way.
Rooftop Paper - Four Stories from Rooftop Cinema 2008/09
Apart from a couple of pages dedicated to the film program and the FAQs, Rooftop Paper has no information or images relating to the films or the cinema experience. It's like they want you to spend your time reading fiction instead of buying tickets! It's like they want you to use your imagination instead of your credit card.
Jan von Holleben
This year, Rooftop Cinema worked with Berlin/London-based photographer Jan von Holleben. That is why the posters make you cry tears for your lost childhood.
Beginning from Jan's 'Dreams of Flying' series, secondary images were developed to imply multiple cinematic narratives. It's a simple play on perspective, but done with imagination, humour and sincerity.
