Edit some single-frame subliminal messages into the films with your venting.

Can't do it with digital film. :(

They read your Facebook posts :zombiefuck:

Yes.

I posted a message in Zulu, stating that 1984 is my favourite book these days.

So they bothered with  translating stuff too,  post something in gibberish and see what they come up with what it means.

:laugh:

I posted a meaningless ad slogan, yesterday.

Is the festival publicly funded? That may give you the right to criticize how they spend their funds. Sweden has stricter employment laws than America does.

If you don't want to fight directly, you can use a pseudonym. :thumbup: Or, you could write in Finnish. :orly:

No, the festival is a private foundation, financed in part by donations. Good thinking, though. I'll have a think.

Sure you can, you just need Premiere?

Actually I wouldn't know, when it comes to the files that are physically shipped out to theatres. But I was thinking in between previews or shorts something if you had to queue separate files.
You'll never self-actualize the subconscious canopy of stardust with that attitude.

I'm working at the film festival for another week and so spending my time here and on FB when not doing anything useful. Since most of the films are digital, it means that I don't have a whole lot to do.

So until now I've posted my thoughts about the films I've screened, the filmmakers I've met and the technology I've faced. Not all of it showed the festival or the films or the filmmakers or the technology in a, shall we say, positive light.

This morning, the tech manager asked me to please refrain from such comments during the festival. He also said that sarcasms were not allowed either. They'd discussed me during today's planning meeting.

So now that they are trying to gag me, what can I do to vent? Inventive ideas welcomed.

No stranger to snowflakes who cannot handle criticism. There is really nothing you can do about this, apart from disobeying the tech manager and probably being barred from the festival.

They will always see that in my eyes.

No way, man. Some cleaning staff person would probably have to deal with it.  >:( 
Smear it behind the handle of their car door instead.  :zoinks:

The films are encrypted, a lot of the time, but I suspect Premiere wouldn't know how to read the file format even if they weren't.

Changing my idea now.

Don't write a book. Write a script for a short movie. Make it about a film-festival.  :autism:
