Mapping contemporary re-uses of amateur film: A typology

17:OCT 18h00—19h00 60'
Batalha Centro de Cinema

The REC.forward research project, dedicated to the contemporary re-use of amateur film, has been running for three years within the “Laboratoire Interdisciplinaires Récits, Cultures et Sociétés” (LIRCES) at the University Côte d'Azur (France). The international meetings and screenings organized as part of this project have encouraged interactions between researchers, artists, filmmakers, archivists and programmers, focusing on reused artefacts of all kinds. These cross-analytical reflections have confirmed the relevance of an interdisciplinary approach to the construction of theoretical and methodological frameworks for the analysis of the contexts, gestures and objects of re-use, dealing with amateur material in the field of creation, especially film. Based on the various re-use films that we have come across in the course of our research into these issues, in this Master Class we will propose a typology of the re-use methods observed, whether this gesture is apprehended at the level of the film as a whole, or at the level of each shot considered from a communicative perspective.
