*Film Freedom: making and releasing films with free software*
Film Freedom is a documentation and development project to make
filmmaking with free-software and releasing via free culture funding
models more accessible. It currently includes the following development
projects:
* /KitCAT: the Kit for Creative Arts Teamwork/ is a virtual studio
system and client which connects the TACTIC studio DAMS and Project
Management suite to popular filmmaking and creative software packages.
* /Lib-Ray/ is a project to create an alternative to DVD and Blu-Ray
for fixed-format releases, using only free-licensed software and
open formats, without encryption or region-coding.
* /Lunatics!/ is an original animated science-fiction story about the
first permanent settlers on the Moon. This is an independent,
free-culture, open-movie production, made with open-source software,
especially Blender. Regular updates and support are through Patreon.
Andrew Pam is the past president and current treasurer of Linux Users of
Victoria. Andrew and his partner Dr. Katherine Phelps ran an animation
fan club for many years. Andrew is a supporter and render server
provider for Terry Hancock's "Lunatics!" FOSS animated TV series project.
There will also be the usual casual hands-on workshop, Linux
installation, configuration and assistance and advice. Bring your laptop
if you need help with a particular issue. This will now occur *BEFORE*
the talks from 12:30 to 14:00. The talks will commence at 14:00 (2pm) so
there is time for people to have lunch nearby.
The meeting will be held at Infoxchange, 33 Elizabeth St. Richmond 3121
