AFDA Experimental Festival - live and onlineThe annual AFDA Experimental Festival will take place live at its Johannesburg campus (17-18 June), Cape Town campus (15-19 June) and Durban campus (16 June) and online from 21 June to 21 July 2016. The South African School of Motion Medium Picture and Live Performance (AFDA), listed by ID magazine as ‘one of the top ten off-the-grid art institutions in the world’ will exhibit 57 new experimental films, broadcast 11 new television shows and perform 12 stage and musical productions. “The experimental festival is a unique opportunity for third year students to discover and express their artistic intent, as well as experiment with film, theatre and television craft techniques,” says Garth Holmes, co-founder and chairman of AFDA. AFDA Cape Town has opened its new 80-seat theatre, ‘228 on Lower Main’, which will host the AFDA Live Performance Experimental Festival productions.
