AMIA 2016 | Further Freaky Formats: Mad Scientists Edition

Join us for another #FFFF panel, where we explore the forgotten (and misbegotten) formats of yesteryear! In this edition, we’ll focus on the Dr. Frankenstein types who recombined film production technologies and formats in surprising new ways. SEE John Cunningham’s 9.5mm Kinemacolor process, with separate 16mm mag soundtrack! HEAR Martin Harper’s two-films-in-one process, with 35mm soundtracks on 16mm film! MARVEL at the 8mm Cinemascope achievements of Richard Orton, Paul Grenadier, and their Erector set anamorphic antics! Endorsed by the Small Gauge and Amateur Film Committee.

Speakers: Snowden Becker, UCLA Dept. of Information Studies; Dino Everett, USC Hugh M. Hefner Moving Image Archive; Marsha Gordon, NCSU; Susan Etheridge, UCLA Film & Television Archive
