things are happening in LONDON GROUND!!!
this project consists of a web series of short experimental films directed by award winning film maker Claudia Tomaz. Films are made in collaboration with selected artists of different practices (music, film, art, activism) in London underGROUND 2010. The artists invited are not mainstream ones, but people with dreams and their feet on the ground. LONDON GROUND gives EXPOSURE to artists, through showing their work online and creating a linked artist’s community! Film screenings, events and a DVD will follow!

Director’s note:
My aim is to find a sustainable way of film making by making films modestly, in digital, in a short time, in collaboration with other artists. LONDON GROUND films are short and may result in documentaries, essay films or visual poems. Note that films are NOT promotional videos, they are the result of an ENCOUNTER (me – no crew – and an artist). I am now preparing 4 new films – of 10 – but the project is growing organically. As soon as a micro film is done, the film is uploaded online at * http://microfilmswebtv.com/
*MICRO FILMS WEB TV is an ONLINE channel and platform to SHOW Claudia Tomaz’s films. In December 2009 it had 1.1 MILLION views! The revenue of the hit allowed Claudia to make the films that you can now watch
