In this full-day workshop, participants will learn how to create new moving-image compositions by duplicating and manipulating existing still images and motion pictures from a variety of formats.

We will discuss re-photography techniques and learn how to use a 16mm Bolex film camera with high contrast black and white film, along with a simple data or film projector, to create multi-field split-screen effects.

Participants are invited to bring an analogue or digital still image, a short piece of 16mm film or a digital video, which we will use as the basis for a split-screen re-photography composition. We will hand-process the material and the resulting 16mm film will be projected at the end of the class.

Please note: access to Cineworks Annex is via the driveway down the left side of the Ironworks Building. Please ring the buzzer to the right of the gate.


About the Instructors
Jack Beatty is a photographer and expert lab technician with decades of experience with both industrial motion-picture processing and supporting experimental film practices.

Christoph Runné is a Vancouver-based educator and experimental film, video, and installation artist. Through his work, he explores the unhidden yet seemingly invisible world around us. Often working with diverse analogue image-making techniques, Runné creates visual tone poems with a humanitarian heartbeat whose minimalist and impressionistic methodology contradicts the complex human conditions with which he engages.
