ABOUT THE WORKSHOP

Inspired by the films of Len Lye and Taku Furukawa, this dynamic hands-on workshop will provide the materials for you to get creative making wonderful abstract animations onto celluloid film. Participants will be introduced to techniques of drawing and painting directly onto the filmstrip in order to create a mesmerising piece of collectively- created moving image, generated without the need for a camera! Following the session, the work will be digitised and shared with all participants.

This workshop is facilitated by artist and educator Lydia Beilby. You can learn more about Lydia’s work at Screen Bandita.

This workshop is suitable for children aged 8 - 13. We ask all young participants to please wear messy clothes or bring an apron, and to be accompanied by a parent or carer throughout the session.

Please note, this is a free workshop. Due to limited availability, we kindly ask that you get in touch with us via email to express your interest in attending prior to booking: reveriecine@gmail.com
