Call for Submissions: Alphabet Soup, LGBTQIA+ Screening & Panel

ExTV presents: Alphabet Soup. LBGT, LGBTQIA+, Queer, deviant; the community uses lots of terms to describe themselves. This screening is for video work that centers around the LGBTQIA+ experience.

ExTV Presents: Monthly Student Artist Spotlight

We’d like to introduce the first participant in our new monthly program that highlights the work of a student artist every month and seeks to create a larger conversation and sense of community through featuring their work/practice. This program has three components: an online program of a selection of the artist’s works, a highlighted presence of the artist across ExTV’s social media, and a live conversation/ Q&A with the artist to round off the month.

IN BETWEEN: A Live-streamed Animation Screening

ExTV, in collaboration with SAIC’s Ani(MATE) Club, put together In Between to showcase a collection of diverse and creative works from animation students at SAIC. Animation – an often underrepresented and unfairly looked-down-on medium at institutions such as SAIC – has been morphing and reshaping itself continuously at the school and in the creative world.

ExTV Presents: CHROMA

Hosted on March 6, 2020, CHROMA was presented as a new screening event in response to Women’s Equality Day and in celebration of Women’s History Month.

2020 marks the 100 year anniversary of the day white women in America gained the right to vote. However, it is often misinterpreted as the day all women in America received the right to vote. Throughout the echoes of history, black and brown women were barred from many opportunities and spaces. Female/Femme artists of color still face some of these same barriers in the contemporary world of art and design.

We now represent this program to you in order to create a digital space and home for these works and artists whose works are imperative to share.

Thanks again to all our participants and attendees!
