[Frameworks] Experimental Cinema and Resisting Nuclear Arms in the 21st Century
Happy weekend Frameworkers! For the past three years myself and Taylor Dunne have been making a feature length experimental doc about Nuclear weapons testing, manufacturing and storage in the American Southwest. We have been interviewing anti-nuclear and peace activists who have resisted the Rocky Flats Plant in CO, the Nevada Test Site and the sprawling nuclear weapons complex throughout New Mexico. To finish this work while relevant to the broader cultural discourse we are having a fundraiser throughout October. We know that these are tumultuous times rife with environmental and political change and that everyones time and money is stretched super thin. But! if you can find any room to help us out, even if thats just helping spread the word about what we are doing, we will be forever grateful. To learn more about our work please check the project out online at: www.off-country.com and also take a look at our Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/578520099/off-country-a-multimedia-documentary-feature If you live in Colorado Taylor and I will be presenting talking about our project in Nederland October 28th from 10am-2pm at the Art House of Nederland 171 E.

[Frameworks] Denver/Screening/Saturday
Hello Frameworkers! Saturday 2/28 at 7pm GLOB 3551 Brighton Denver, Colorado This Saturday we are so happy to be hosting a wonderful program of films, curated by Caryn Cline and Julie Perini entitled “Collaborating with Nature” Collaborating with Nature is a survey of contemporary filmmakers, who are examining natural and wild phenomena. From composting, spore-printing and electromagnetic manipulation to developing film in polluted lake water or exposure to bioluminescent fungi; these material investigations turn the film frame into a site of intervention. A site where Direct Animation meets Direct Action and a landscape where the elimination of the frame line comes to embody the elimination of property lines. The screening will be introduced by local filmmaker Eric Stewart, in a discussion called The Aesthetics of Deep Ecology”. Featuring films by: Dorothea Braemer Brian Milbrand, Cade Bursell, Dagie Brundert, Caryn Cline, Devon Damonte, Lori Felker, Melissa Friedling, Eva Kolcze, Robbie Land, Christine Lucy Latimer, Julie Perini, Jeremy Rendina, Ken Paul Rosenthal, Eric Stewart, and Steve Woloshen Hope to see any of you locals there!

[Frameworks] Call for Submissions- Re-inventing the Reel
Call for Submissions: Re-inventing the Reel Celebrating one year of Elements of Image Making In February of 2012 in Oakland California, Elements of Image Making began as a workshop for the promotion of analogue film craft. It has become a monthly meet-up/hang-out/nerd-out connecting those with something to learn and those with something to teach. Operating non-hierarchically and without agenda, Elements of Image Making is a vagrant Lyceum transferring the alchemical secrets of the past via word of mouth to anyone seeking initiation into celluloid film-istry. As the industrial interests that historically sustained film production abandon us, we self organize and defy irrelevancy- keeping film where it belongs, in the underground. Reinventing the Reel will be a screening in San Francisco taking place in early July. It will celebrate Element's one year anniversary along with the rich tradition of artist made cinema in the Bay Area and beyond. We are seeking submissions from filmmakers that pursue personal vision while pushing the constituent parts of the filmic apparatus to the point of catharsis and transformation. From the frame to the projector, we are looking for all manner of celluloid interventions. For consideration in the program please send your submissions to Eric Stewart at e.l.j.stew...@gmail.com by June 30th. Work of any genre and length will be considered, but works must primarily be an investigation into the material qualities of celluloid film. -Eric Stewart www.ecstatic-erratic.com ___ FrameWorks mailing list FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks

[Frameworks] Hand processing Workshop this Sunday (San Francisco)
Hey Frameworkers, Sorry for the late notice. This Sunday November 4th at 4pm we will be introducing folks to the darkroom at Noisebridge, 2169 Mission st, San Francisco (close to 16th st BART). Join us for a belated Halloween themed hand processing workshop. We will hang out in the darkroom, tell scary stories, make photograms with glow in the dark stickers and process film in trick or treat buckets. Bring candy! This workshop is aimed mostly at the uninitiated, but those with previous experience are more then welcome and encouraged to offer their knowledge. We will also have a Bolex present, so if you've been looking to get up close and personal with one, this is your opportunity! Workshop is free, but we are asking that attendees help cover the cost of the film stock, which costs about 10 or 20 dollars (HiCon = cheap), so if everyone brings a couple bucks we should be good!

[Frameworks] Free Film Workshop in SF this Sunday
Hey Frameworkers, Me and some people are starting a free film workshop series this Sunday August 26th, 2-6ish PM. It is at Noisebridge 2169 Mission (https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Getting_Here). We have a bunch of miscellaneous leader, found footage, 1-3 projectors and lots of markers, paints, crystals and reptile skin to adhere to film. People are encouraged to bring any material they might be interested in working with. Elements of Image Making is a series of workshops investigating analogue film processes, structured around the open exchange of ideas, resources, and skills while focusing on teaching through facilitation. Initially concerned with tactile manipulations, we will make direct animations by drawing, scratching, and painting directly onto film. By focusing on texture, pattern, and rhythm we will explore projected light, experience and perception. Future workshops will move into the darkroom exploring: photograms, hand processing, handmade emulsions and tinting/toning. Additionally we will invoke whatever mischief we can think of; we might bury film, throw it into a volcano, launch it into the atmosphere, bake it, burn it or sail it to angel island. Prior film knowledge is not required but attendees with previous experience are encouraged to contribute their knowledge and experience at any level they feel comfortable with. https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Elements_of_Image_Making We will continue to meet the 2nd and 4rth sundays of every month.

Re: [Frameworks] color internegative film stock
Fotokem in LA has been very accommodating to me whenever I ask them for small batches of print stocks. They seem to be especially accommodating for students/faculty, they have a student liaison who is very helpful. They gave me 600 of 7272, that I used to make an interneg on a JK. Very happy with it. Only thing is i lost all my edge code. Before I acquired the 7272 I was using 50D to make interneg, also looks great, but definitely looks different from 7272, grainier, colors are more saturated, contrast goes up, etc Another benefit to print stock over film stock, is print stock is cheaper!

Re: [Frameworks] JK printer settings for 8mm to 16mm blowup
What kind of a lens are you using? I believe the proper lens to use for optical printing is an enlarging lens. Camera lenses have different number and arrangement of optical elements. I have used a 50mm slr lens to blow up s8 to 16 and it required a ridiculous amount of extension tubes, like 200mm+, and it requires that you be like one millimeter away from the film strip, which is not practical if your using the jk's gate. If you are using a camera lens with bellows or extension tubes what you are doing conveniently falls into the realm of macrophotography. There are a variety of equations to figure out how much extension you need and what your focus distance is, some quick google-ing should present them. Simply put the farther away the lens from the film plane, the greater the magnification and the closer the focusing distance. Here is a link from the jk website describing the use of enlarging lenses, although I don't immediately understand it: http://www.jkcamera.com/digital_instr_.htm I have some old manuals, and educational material relating to the jk lying around somewhere, I will try to dig them up and see if I can find anything relevant to your predicament. In the meantime i would just get ridiculously close to the super 8 your trying to photograph. It will be elusive, the depth of field is so shallow that minor movements will send you back into the unfocused blurry world. -Eric Stewart On Oct 10, 2011, at 6:47 PM, John Woods jawood...@yahoo.ca jawood...@yahoo.ca wrote: Hi Frameworks, I'm at last attempting to do some Super 8 blowups to 16mm but am confounded at finding the right printer/lens/bellows configuration.
