Embedding analogue film practises in digital filmmaking

Barton, Mark

Abstract

My taught practice is concerned with the concept of physical film and analogue projection equipment as a pathway for film making students to understand how past pedagogies influence both present and future production styles. In the physical examination of both celluloid film stock and mechanics, students gain a tactile understanding of process. Relating this to scholarly articles allows a more robust and concise engagement with present practice. Issues of production can be based on archival materials in their most tangible state, the possibility of archival inquisitiveness, and how this impacts production modes on set. For example, the application of light through a projector lens to a screen, based on the inverse square rules, adds to the debate of cinematic lighting, direction, controlling light and intensity of illumination.
