Edinburgh Film Video Arts (EFVA), is an organisation that supports independent filmmakers, video artists, and media creators in Edinburgh.

EFVA is making a call for NEW MEMBERS to join a critical forum to discuss, meet, and collaborate. This forum offers a space for artists to exchange ideas, showcase their work, and engage in dialogues about the state of film and video art.

EFVA has recently moved into the Outerspaces One Ocean Point building and will seek to lead monthly meetings and future workshops.

AMIF IN CONVERSATION: LUX/CCA Critical Forum debate, 2pm Sunday 29th September

For AMIF 2013, LUX/CCA Critical Forum will host a public discussion that utilises the energised and in-depth debate fostered within the Forum's past meetings to open up a public conversation around the various themes and ideas arising out of this years festival at Tramway. This discussion will take place on Sunday 29th September at 1400-1530 and is open to all AMIF weekend or day pass holders.

LUX/CCA Critical Forum is a monthly discussion group which has met informally at CCA Glasgow over the last two years in order to debate a wide range of issues provoked by the practice of each of the individuals involved, or members' specific interests regarding a wider range of moving image work.

Those who attend the open public discussion at Tramway's AMIF are welcome to attend future meetings of the Forum. The Forum runs as an open group but asks that its members both commit to attending its meetings each month, and are prepared to give a presentation to the group within the first six months of joining.
