Why am I so late on Trans-genre.net? I think this has taught me a lesson about going outside! From the ABOUT section: Trans-Genre was born in Oct. 07’ when FTM rocker’ A.J. Bryce decided it was time for an entertainment-based Trans-exclusive resource. Their mission is to promote the many talented people within the Transgender Performance/Art Community and are putting their money where their mouths are by putting out a 2nd compilation of transgendered artists. The first one, already sold out, was a huge success and now they are seeking submissions for another one, set to be released in January 2010. Deadline’s October 1st. More information at the submission page.
Riot Acts Sample
July 17, 2009Having just enjoyed myself immensely at Threat Level, it’s great to watch hosts Actor Slash Model’s sample of “Riot Acts,” their documentary about trans musicians. Its stated aim “Flaunting gender deviance in music performance” seems spot on, with a wide range of gender expressions as well as musical styles and fierce editing skills to boot. This sample really gets me excited for the final thing. September ’09 is the promised release date, keep up to date with the project and the Chicago based film makers at actorslashmodel.com
