 It's great to see cameraless film is an important issue in the
 university.

 I will use all these thoughts for the academic paper.

Re: [Frameworks] Cameraless film in the university

[Albert Alcoz]

Thank you very much Lindsay to share your personal experience teaching
cameraless film.

Scott, I think there are dozens of actual filmmakers working in these area.
I recommend you to investigate some of the names you can read here:

Re: [Frameworks] Cameraless film in the university

[lindsay mcintyre]

At Emily Carr University of Art + Design I teach an Analogue Practices
course as well as an Advanced Analogue course, both of which include
extensive amounts of cameraless or handmade film. Students complete a 1-3
minute Film Destroy Project and incorporate cameraless techniques into
their own shot footage for a second longer assignment as well. It becomes a
large part of their toolkit for this particular mode of media making (which
is entirely non-commercial in focus, although there are films that include
a great deal of cameraless techniques that have had commercial success). In
a 12 or 13 week semester their first month is in cameraless. This gets them
familiar with all the infrastructure and concepts - steenbecks, projectors,
splicers, winders, optical sound, frames per second, animation, sprockets,
etc - but also gets them source material for their next assignment -
optical printing. It's a pretty popular course and students love working
this way. It is also sometimes included in foundation courses (art).

Re: [Frameworks] Cameraless film in the university

[Scott Hammen]

I’ve been following these posts hoping that there would, sooner or later,
be some mention of actual films.


Perhaps the “old masters” like Man Ray, Len Lye, and Brakhage don’t need
special mention, but, before closing the thread, it would be great to see
some recommendations of a few cameraless films worth trying to see.


Any suggestions ?

 Hello,

 Does anyone know if cameraless film is a common subject at university?

 I am investigating the role of cameraless film in the studies of Fine
 Arts and Media Studies.

 Most of cameraless film workshops are organized by art centers,
 alternative spaces or private film schools but i wonder the role it has
 within the university.

 Is it taught as a technique that can be applied in the audiovisual
 industry (such as video clips, advertisements, fiction animated films,
 etc.) or as a line to develop artistic projects or personal film
 developments?

 Would be great to know personal experiences concerning teaching this
 animation technique related to experimental cinema.

 Best,

Re: [Frameworks] Cameraless film in the university

[Ignacio Tamarit]

Hi Albert!

I do know that there was a class of cameraless animation at FUC (Fundación
Universidad del Cine) for the people that study the animation degree, but I
think that is over.  Also at FUC, at the Técnicas Audiovisuales subject,
which is the one where students can have a insight in experimental cinema,
there is a coverage of found footage and cameraless films. For two years I
was invited to this classes to do a lecture on Cameraless cinema and
project films on 16 mm.


All the best,

Ignacio

Re: [Frameworks] Cameraless film in the university

[Albert Alcoz]

Thank you very much for these positive answers.

Today Frameworks has given me a joy.

It's great to see cameraless film is an important issue in the university.

I will use all these thoughts for the academic paper.

Best,
Albert

Re: [Frameworks] Cameraless film in the university

[Carolina Cappa]

Hola Alberto,

At the University of Buenos Aires we regularly include a 16 mm cameraless
film workshop as part of the Audiovisual Technology biannual subject. We've
been doing it since 2015 and in crowded classrooms as this university is
public and free. I don't actually know if students finally get to use it in
the audiovisual industry though I've seen some products using other
animation techniques derived from this.

Saludos
Carolina

Re: [Frameworks] Cameraless film in the university

[Ruth Hayes]

At The Evergreen State College we teach direct animation and cameraless film in 
our foundation program and in some other classes depending on the subject. As 
with others responding, I’ve found it a great way to bring fine arts students 
in to animation and media production. Also, Devon Damonte teaches a summer 
course here, Visual Music on 16mm and 35mm Film that involves all sorts of 
cameraless techniques including making photograms and hand-processing. Students 
appreciate the materiality of working with film and photo processes, especially 
if all they’ve done before is digital. It’s also a way to get them into 
thinking about forms beyond the narrative and single channel presentation.

Re: [Frameworks] Cameraless film in the university

[Sebastian Wiedemann]

Hi Albert & everyone:

In the context of South America, speaking for Brazil, Argentina, and
Colombia, isn't very common to deal with handmade cinema as part of the
curriculum. Sometimes it is introduced as a minor technique in the context
of animation and with luck as one of the tendencies in the context of
experimental cinema. And having Norman Mclaren as emblematic figure. When I
studied Cinema in Argentina I have contact with handmade film for the first
time, thanks to a small workshop promoted by senior students. But it was an
extracurricular activity. Also in the context of a Master's degree or Ph.D.
is very rare. My Master's degree involved handmade techniques as my Ph.D.
also does and until now I have only heard about another researcher here in
Brazil that also deals with handmade techniques (in intersections with new
and digital ones). Most of the time, handmade cine is presented as a
curiosity of the past and a small chapter of cinema history. Books as the
one written recently by Gregory Zinman or the curatorial work of Antoni
Pinent in the context of handmade cinema in Latin America, I guess will
help as bibliography and literature for richer curriculums in Art and
Cinema Schools.
Best,
Sebastian

Re: [Frameworks] Cameraless film in the university

[Julie Perini]

Hi Albert & everyone:

I’m the person Nicole Baker was referring to, teaching a “handmade film” unit 
as part of a course I call Low Tech Cinema at Portland State University. This 
is a 400-level course offered through the School of Art + Design and attracts 
mainly 3rd and 4th year Art majors, as well as the odd student in another major 
who’s attracted to the lo fi possibilities the course title promises (these 
students are often musicians in bands etc). Like others on this list, my course 
includes units on glitching, consumer cameras, iPhone, “dead” media like slide 
projectors and so on. I have found the 16mm handmade film unit to be an 
enormously successful way to get the Art students in this particular population 
excited about moving image media. Most Art students in this population enroll 
in Art School to paint, draw, sculpt - to work with their hands and materials. 
They are not usually stoked about working on computers for long periods or 
working with technology (of course there are exceptions). I start Low Tech 
Cinema with the direct animation/scratch film unit because they love it, they 
bring their own paints, sandpapers, collage materials, and other tools and go 
to town with the process. Some go deep and continue to work in this medium in 
my courses or through independent studies with me in subsequent terms (we’re on 
ten-week terms). Those students who go deep really do explore our humble 16mm 
black and clear leader as a material - soaking it, treating it, doing things to 
make it more porous. The rest of our Video/Time-Based offerings in our small 
Art program are in video art, video installation, animation (with computers). 
Lately I’ve been thinking about blowing up all this curriculum to get the 16mm 
handmade film into Art students’ hands earlier.

Cheers!
Julie

Re: [Frameworks] Cameraless film in the university

[rebecca meyers]

Hi Albert!

In the Intro to Production course I teach every fall at Bucknell
University, the students make all their projects on digital video, but we
spend a week early in the semester on 16mm. One day we go out with a Bolex
and while half of the group is out filming, the other half is making
cameraless films, and then they swap (it's direct animation with black
leader, clear leader, scratching tools, markers and there's also a bunch of
cut up prints [educational films, mostly] that they can work with as found
footage).

For my class, it's a means of introducing students to 16mm, to handling it,
etc. And a way to show them about some of the history of
experimental/artist made film, including animation (we watch a few things
as well).

Re: [Frameworks] Cameraless film in the university

[Becka Barker]

I include at least one day of cameraless in my intro animation,
experimental animation, and intro film classes at NSCAD university here in
Nova Scotia. I always have a critical mass of students interested in trying
it, since most of them have never seen celluloid. Our university has a
fairly interdisciplinary orientation overall; our students come at film and
media arts from a variety of disciplinary backgrounds (from sculpture and
textiles to creative writing and design), so having a very tactile, direct,
and accessible way of creating moving images is always a winner here! I
could be biased, though, since cameraless is an important part of my own
studio work anyway. :)

I like seeing so many affirmative responses in this discussion!

I'm prepping to screen some hand drawn 16mm loops right now - 15 of them.
Students get here (University of Tampa) in an hour.. gotta go.

Re: [Frameworks] Cameraless film in the university

[Tara Nelson]

I teach cameraless filmmaking (or 'handmade film') in my Intro to 16mm film
production course every Spring at Visual Studies Workshop in Rochester,
NY.  Students explore techniques such as collage, direct animation,
tinting, dyeing, hole-punching, scratching and anything else they can come
up with. This is the first project in the course as it allows students to
become comfortable with film-as-material, provides familiarity with the
frame structure of 16mm and allows me to teach splicing and, most
importantly, projection. Once students have an understanding of projection,
I find they more quickly grasp the mechanics of the 16mm film camera.

This course is 15 weeks and offered for college credit through 3 local
universities, and is open to the public as a non-credit course.

Re: [Frameworks] Cameraless film in the university

[Michael Betancourt]

I teach cameraless film (both painting and scratching into black leader) as
the first part of a course on "alternative" processes and techniques of
animation that is focused on various physical and material ways to work
with moving images. It also includes other historical processes such as
video feedback and signal processing, some aspects of optical printing that
can be reproduced/simulated with digital systems (such as After Effects),
light show techniques done with overhead projectors, and various glitch
video techniques. At one time this class also covered projection mapping,
but since we now have a dedicated class on that, it's become more about the
materiality of the medium. The cameraless films are a way to get students
thinking about the physicality of moving images that I find helpful,
especially since they are usually very comfortable with digital animation
and haven't really done any hand or direct animation.

Re: [Frameworks] Cameraless film in the university

[Beebe, Roger W.]

Albert,

I’ve taught a cameraless filmmaking class every few years for the last decade 
or so at two large public universities in the US (the University of Florida and 
Ohio State University).  That class is definitely not industry-oriented—it’s an 
end in itself (i.e., fully in the experimental film tradition).  I have also 
taught it as a one- or two-week module in other classes, usually just to give 
students a sense of film material.

I don’t know how widely spread this practice is, but my sense is there are 
enough folks like me situated at public universities who sneak this in in one 
way or another.

Best,
Roger

Subject: [Frameworks] Cameraless film in the university

Hello,

Does anyone know if cameraless film is a common subject at university?

I am investigating the role of cameraless film in the studies of Fine Arts and 
Media Studies.

Most of cameraless film workshops are organized by art centers, alternative 
spaces or private film schools but i wonder the role it has within the 
university.

Is it taught as a technique that can be applied in the audiovisual industry 
(such as video clips, advertisements, fiction animated films, etc.) or as a 
line to develop artistic projects or personal film developments?

Would be great to know personal experiences concerning teaching this animation 
technique related to experimental cinema.

Best,
Albert

HI Albert!
I recently completed my MFA in Visual Studies at an art school in the US. I
can tell you that cameraless film is taught there, but only for a couple
weeks as part of a larger introductory course in Animation. At another
University in the same city there is a Media Art class that focuses on
alternative filmmaking techniques that spends a couple sessions on
cameraless film techniques (similar to what Pip described). From what I
know it is a subject that comes up in fine arts media courses and is not
explored with great depth. When I attended four years of film school as an
undergraduate, it was not something that was ever even mentioned to me. I
was not introduced to it until I was studying media in a fine arts context.
I hope this helps. I can elaborate on my experiences if it is of interest
to you, cameraless and direct animation techniques are something that I
have incorporated into my filmmaking practice quite extensively.

Re: [Frameworks] Cameraless film in the university

[FrameWorks Admin]

I teach cameraless filmmaking for one week out of a 15-week semester in 
experimental filmmaking.
For that class, I bring in materials including 16mm black film to scratch, 
transparent film, found footage, paint and markers and scratching tools, 
tinters and toners, sink unclogging acid and Q-tips, newspaper There are 40 
students and the class is only three hours but they do manage to make a few 
seconds each and to see the result projected at the end of the class.

[Frameworks] Cameraless film in the university

Hello,

Does anyone know if cameraless film is a common subject at university?

I am investigating the role of cameraless film in the studies of Fine Arts
and Media Studies.

Most of cameraless film workshops are organized by art centers, alternative
spaces or private film schools but i wonder the role it has within the
university.

Is it taught as a technique that can be applied in the audiovisual industry
(such as video clips, advertisements, fiction animated films, etc.) or as a
line to develop artistic projects or personal film developments?

Would be great to know personal experiences concerning teaching this
animation technique related to experimental cinema.
