Alan, I know you say "of any sort", but do you mean of 8mm film, or of
super 8 film? The two types of cartridges and cameras are very
different and incompatible.

Hi - I need to get 8mm film (of any sort) and processing - any
suggestions
greatly appreciated. I usually work in video or screen saving to
video,
but I want to use traditional camerawork for some projects.

Thanks greatly,

Alan

[Frameworks] Film/video programers/curators and campus film screenings

[Chris Kennedy]

Hi Mike,

In undergrad at Queen's University in Kingston, I tried to do a small film
salon with a couple other people in the film department (arty films at
that point; I don't think they were experimental) but we were actually
shut down by the Student Union(!), who had their own lucrative contract
bringing in 35mm prints of latest blockbusters (Something about Mary and
the like) and showing them in a large lecture hall on Friday or Saturday
night (somehow our 20 seat classroom was a threat). The Film Department's
blanket rights didn't cover us. My first introduction to film rights.
Somehow other clubs got away with showing sci-fi and stuff.

When I went to grad school in San Francisco about 10 years later, I
started the weekly SFAI Film Salon with Vanessa O'Neill to show
experimental films. I had already been programming with Images Festival
and Pleasure Dome and Vanessa had festival background from her Boston
days, so we already had experience. We started the Film Salon as a
reaction to an obvious lack in the school (and to take advantage of their
great print library). I think we managed to get $1000 or two a semester
(or year?) to rent prints and ran it for most of our two years there
(starting, I believe, the middle of the first semester in 2006). It
definitely had an impact on us and our future programming (Vanessa does
the experimental program at the SF Film Festival now with Kathy Geritz and
I do EMS & Free Screen back in Toronto. EMS was directly inspired by what
Vanessa and I were able to do in SF). But I also have always seen it as a
natural outgrowth of being an artist in this field--having to organize
stuff in order to see it.

There's a little online shrine here:
http://theworldviewed.com/2011/the-sfai-film-salon-san-francisco/

The SFAI Film Salon lasted for a couple more years, programmed by friends
in the next class down (Carling MacManus & Bamboo Hsu and a couple
undergrads, I believe) who continued to show experimental stuff. I lost
track of it after that, but the web shows that someone was at least
programming it into 2013.

best
Chris

Hi Frameworks: I’m doing some research on what connections (if any) exist
between
people who program or curate film, video, and other moving image media and
their
experiences in college and university.

Question: If you are currently programming or curating, did you get any
experience
at a college or university campus film society or screening series?

I know of histories in Toronto at universities like Ryerson, University of
Toronto,
and York University, and have read anecdotal accounts from schools like
Binghamton,
NY, where students from those schools programmed ambitious experimental
screenings
on campus and then continued to program/curate afterwards, but I’m
wondering how
widespread that connection is. And whether it’s a North American
phenomenon or if it
occurs elsewhere.

Please share any stories or personal histories, either privately to me, or
to the
listserv.

Thanks!
