I'D LIKE TO THANK MY STUFFED ANIMALS...

Budding -- along with budded -- filmmakers latched onto the Fisher Price PXL toy camera like toddlers to sippy cups. Here's what filmmaker Bryan Konefsky once said: "Pixelvision is the haiku of cinema: the minimum of means delivering the maximum of meaning. The PXL 2000 toy camera's limited image quality forces moviemakers to focus on essentials, and thereby to produce a richly connotative cinematic experience. In fact, PXL may be the best instantiation of Stan Brakhage's luminous quote: 'The true meaning of cinema can be found between the frames.'" For PXL This 18, festival director Gerry Fialka has assembled some of the best entries from New Zealand, Canada, Czech Republic and the U.S.
