Description:
The first thing that comes up on Google when you search for Red Hot Shorts is very NSFW. Maybe that's why Gus doesn't update his website very often! There's always going to be 300 butts between you and the relevant screening information anyway. This month Red Hot Shorts features that Wild Beasts video, plus a Thom Yorke-picked Radiohead fan video and a short inspired by Nick Cave's circus freak song 'The Carny'.
Event: Film
Stimulus: Nick Cave

Description:
Maybe it's the hours upon hours spent floating about in the ocean, waiting for sets of waves to roll in. Maybe it's the high occurrence of low to medium impact head injuries. But invariably, most surfers have a spiritual connection to the ocean, manifesting itself in creative endeavours outside of the noble act of riding waves.

Following the sellout success of last month's homage to Warp Records, Gus Berger brings us another Red Hot Shorts showcase. This session includes an early Bob Dylan clip, the award-winning 3D promo for Bjork, Adam Watson's winning entry for Kissy Sell Out in the Genero.tv music video competition, and more short films and cutting-edge music videos than you could point a stick at.

Loud People
He is the master of the quick comeback. A famed wit, with the impeccable timing of a matador. His home is protected by video surveillance. His head is big. He is Don Rickles.
But we're not here to talk about Don Rickles. We're here to meet one of his biggest fans - Todd Lamb. Todd is a visionary.
Short & Sweet script entries
This isn't really a LOOK so much as a DO because script submissions for this short play competition gotta be in by July 31. It's not often that ThreeThousand suggests you create things yourself, we're more about telling you to go and see things other people have created, and drink their vino while you're there.
Focus on Punk
It is an often overlooked fact that punk and the do-it-yourself mentality went beyond just music to encompass publishing, clothes and of course film.
UK author and academic Jack Sargent is one of the editors of the book No Focus: Punk on Film and curator of Focus on Punk – a program of films, documentaries, and rare and unseen shorts that charts the chaotic and anarchic history of punk cinema.
