SUMMARY:Essential Pittsburgh: J.T. Vale at The Glitterbox Theater
DESCRIPTION:Essential Pittsburgh: J.T. Vale\n\nPittsburgh Sound + Image presents a filmmaker unseen for 40+ years \nJ.T. Vale (James Thomas or\, to his friends and family\, Jim) was a lifelong artist\, obsessive cinephile\, and a fixture of Pittsburgh’s South Side. He started making films as a kid. In his 20s\, he found community in the emerging punk and experimental scenes thriving around Pittsburgh Filmmakers\, then located at 205 Oakland Ave (now an Amazon store.) There\, his idiosyncratic interests crystallized into a distinctive style of constant but subtle\, fluid camera movement\, which J.T. theorized as locking onto the wavelength of the subject being filmed. He was a filmmaker chasing the sublime\, and in works such as “Cindy Vale\,” he achieves it. \nIn between his personal output\, Vale was one of the more in-demand camerapeople in the city. Peggy Ahwesh\, Tippi Comden\, Robert Haller\, and Natalka Voslakov (who wrote that he “knows more about film-making than most of the U.S.A.!”) were just a few of his recurring collaborators. A true maven of cinema povera\, he had an eye for cataloging and dramatizing the oddball characters in his social orbit. And Pittsburgh. His films are so very Pittsburgh\, down to a few square blocks of the South Side. Yet Jim has received little attention in the past 40 years. He passed away in 2010\, and the majority of his prolific filmography is currently lost. Over the last seven years\, we have scavenged Pittsburgh and beyond for any traces of his work\, and we’re honored to be able to assemble a J.T. Vale primer on which we think he would approve having his name. \nDoors at 7:30\, show starts at 8 \nAdvance tickets available here. \nABOUT ESSENTIAL PITTSBURGH \nPittsburgh Sound + Image seeks to redefine our region’s film history with the Essential Pittsburgh series. We acknowledge the depth of creativity which has flourished here by spotlighting vital artists and their films from the 1960s through the 2000s. This landmark series is a continuation of our efforts to celebrate a fuller picture of independent\, amateur\, industrial\, and experimental filmmaking talent\, and to better situate Pittsburgh nationally as a place of rich cinematic history.

SUMMARY:The Glitterbox Theater Presents: The New Olds Video Fest 2025
DESCRIPTION:The Glitterbox Presents: The New Olds Video Fest 2025\nA showcase of recent short films made by local creators. \nIt’s “New” because the videos were made in 2024 and 2025. It’s “Olds” because that’s the nickname for our home (notice the iconic Oldsmobile logo on the facade of the Glitterbox? It’s a relic from one of the building’s former lives as a car dealership.) Put them together with a one-night-only celebration of our region’s moviemaking talent\, and you’ve got the New Olds Video Festival\, now in its second year. Who will take home one of Pittsburgh’s most coveted awards\, the Glitty? There’s only one way to find out! Come on\, what else are you doing the weekend between Christmas and New Years? Come watch some of your friend’s flicks! \nSubmissions are open to any movie image makers in the Pittsburgh region. Film\, video\, and digital video submissions with durations from five seconds to ten minutes are accepted. Email theglitterboxtheater@gmail.com with questions or to submit.  \nSubmissions are due by Friday\, December 12th.  \nDoors at 7\, Show at 7:30
