Avant-garde do cinema (década de 90)

1. Shooting must be done on location. Props and sets
must not be brought in (if a particular prop is
necessary for the story, a location must be chosen
where this prop is to be found).

2. The sound must never be produced apart from the
images or vice versa. (Music must not be used
unless it occurs where the scene is being shot).

3. The camera must be hand-held. Any movement or
immobility attainable in the hand is permitted. (The
film must not take place where the camera is
standing; shooting must take place where the film
takes place).

4. The film must be in colour. Special lighting is not
acceptable. (If there is too little light for exposure
the scene must be cut or a single lamp be attached
to the camera).

5. Optical work and filters are forbidden.

6. The film must not contain superficial action.
(Murders, weapons, etc. must not occur.)

7. Temporal and geographical alienation are forbidden.
(That is to say that the film takes place here and
now.)

8. Genre movies are not acceptable.

9. The film format must be Academy 35 mm.

10. The director must not be credited.
