Have you ever wondered about patriarchal characteristics of porn, or feminist attributes of erotica? Come help us speculate and build responses to these questions and others during our "porn night," where we will be screening 1 hour of pornography/erotica, followed by a panel-driven discussion of the implications of the films. Please be advised: content will be explicit.

Speak in a three way panel on a topic that is not socially accepted.
For the first time ever this year IMPACT Cutting E.D.G.E. Films is sponsoring a 48-Hour Filmmaker Festival. For this competition students form filmmaking teams and are then assigned a film genre, character name, and random prop, and then asked to incorperate those elements into their film. The catch is that they only have 48hrs to write, film, and edit their short film (4-7min.) to the final product.
Applications are available in CSU 173 and are due November 13th. The filming will begin in CSU 173 at 4p.m. on Thursday, November 16th and end at 4p.m. Saturday, November 18th. The IMPACT Cutting E.D.G.E. Film Committee will then select the top five finalists to be shown Monday, November 20th at 7p.m. in CSU 253/4/5, where a panel of judges will select the top three winners and cash prizes will be awarded.
For questions please contact me at 507-389-6076 or brittney.hansen@mnsu.edu.
