Opticlash 2: The 2nd Annual VJ Battle

Opticlash 2: The 2nd Annual VJ Battle

  • Showing: Wednesday, June 13, 6:00 PM
  • Running Time: 240 Minutes
  • Theater: Capitol Hill Arts Center
  • Ticket Code: OPTI1307F

The art of video mixing has reached new heights as VJs are becoming involved in an increasing number of events around the world and ideas and techniques from this arena of visual music are being integrated into every aspect of our evolving audio-visual culture. Celebrating the vibrance of this growing art form, SIFF co-presents Seattle’s 2nd annual Opticlash VJ Battle as part of the Face The Music program. KEXP DJ Kid Hops hosts this unique competition in which some of Seattle’s most innovative VJs will face off in a head-to-head, elimination-style battle of real-time video mixing on two big screens. Similar to a DJ battle, this event pushes the art of VJing to the edge, inspiring new levels of creativity, skill, and innovation. Their rounds will be accompanied by live DJ sets by Seattle favorites J-Justice, Aaron Simpson and Swank, and the winner will walk away with a $1000 Edirol V-4 video mixer, and of course Opticlash bragging rights.
Don’t miss this exciting event!
