Video Gong Show
Video Gong Show
Friday, this Friday Nov 12th 8pm, we’re doing the video gong show at the Echo Park Film Center (right next to Machine). Here’s how it works – anyone is welcome to bring a video they’ve made. Everyone in the audience has a button hooked into a diabolical electronic gong ringing system. When dissatisfaction reaches a fever pitch of 50%, the gong gongs and the video stops. Prizes will be bestowed for the video that survives the longest (most entertaining) and the shortest (most annoying). I did this in Houston this summer and it was very fun, although a video of people chugging beer stayed on for a disturbingly long time. Echo Park Film Center, 1200 North Alvarado Street. Bring a video.
