TWO NIGHTS OF FILMS
BY BRENT HAYWARD

4 POYNTON TERRACE, SUB-BASEMENT OF PARISIAN TIE FACTORY

DEFLOWERING FILMS - JULY 21ST 7 PM $5

In the first programme, SLICK, RIM, Rugger Buggers,The Mondo Feast - these are largely quick fire shorts films, some very  short . One of these films is the longest clocking in at just under 15 minutes - Uranian Folk Film, but most of the films in this first programme are two minutes or less, one is ten seconds.
Hayward's still radical image and sound designed short film "Slick" was referenced in the Hollywood made movie starring Nick Cage "8 1/2" in the scene which features Joaquin Phoenix. It has screened widely in the sub cultural underground film circuits of San Fransisco, New York, Chicago, France, Brussels, Canada and repeatedly in the German cities of Berlin, Stuttgart, & Dusseldorf, these screenings were handled by the German/Hollywood/ Porno producer Jurgen Brunning, whom observed that "where ever I get to see SLICK playing I get a hard on." Seven Brent Hayward still laughs at this when putting on Jurgens Germanic voice. Interesting to note that SLICK was kicked out of the video post production house IMAGES even before editing had began. The SLICK film screening in Melbourne 2000 e.v. was promptly stopped by the venue owner which gave Hayward V. good street cred. But unfortunately even Australians former Arts capitol has not witnessed a full programme like lucky kiwi movie lovers will get to witness in the flesh!!!!! here at the Audio Foundation Head Quarters.
Sound design was composed by Hayward and Alan Janseen (producer/co writer, How Bizarre, Sisters Underground, etc). Using latest cutting edge technology. SLICK was edited under the cloak of night. The cost? One bottle of single malt whiskey. The SLICK film screening in Melbourne 2000 e.v. was promptly stopped by the venue owner which gave Hayward V. good street cred. But unfortunately even Australians former Arts capitol has not witnessed a full programme like lucky kiwi movie lovers will get to witness in the flesh!!!!! here at the Audio Foundation Head Quarters.
Some of these films havent been screened in NZ since 1989!! The last time Slick screened, the police pulled out the director from the audience.After attending his own screening with zero pants on!!!
And the rest since 1999!!!

 Hayward's Film "Manawanui" won over Australian audiences and judges in 1997.
