dutch eatcarpet - nachtpodium

Never mind eat carpet, eat kaas...


Nachtpodium (Nightstage) is a program that gives a place to what doesn't belong anywhere else on regular television. Here, ideas roam and images of young artists intrigue. Both starting as well as more experienced artists and filmmakers can climb upon the stage. No props, studio or budget, only the driven creative human being that wants to show us something different.

Every Sunday around midnight you can watch Nachtpodium on Net 3. Nachtpodium is a no-budget program that shows short films (up to 20 minutes) from mostly Dutch (beginning) filmmakers and artists. The shown work varies from animation to poetry and from documentary to videoclips.

If you would like to contribute to Nachtpodium, send your work to:
VPRO Nachtpodium
Postbus 11
1200JC Hilversum
Tel: +31 (0)35-6712693

As said above, Nachtpodium is a no-budget program. We are therefore unable to pay for films.

what is eatcarpet?

eatcarpet brings the most unlikely, the occasionally perplexing,
the undeniably provocative but always the BEST short films, videos
and animations to Australian television screens every saturday night of the year. about eatcarpet....

audiences often ask: "what does eatcarpet mean?"... the easiest answer is that to literally do what the title suggests, that is to 'eat carpet', would seem strange, bizarre, impossible, quirky, tasteless, unheard of...Do these descriptions fit the broad range of short narratives, dance works, animations and experimental documentaries, which are screened on eatcarpet? yes.
This year, eatcarpet celebrates its 13th birthday on Australian television.
As the only regular, weekly timeslot where audiences can watch innovative, experimental and entertaining short films from Australia and around the world, eatcarpet still stands alone.
