Institutional archives and museums’ entanglements with empire and processes of spoliation have elicited a number of reckonings. Calls to rethink, reimagine, repurpose or re-interpret objects kept in hold proliferate. This screening and discussion proposes a critical, materialist approach to this moment, looking specifically at moving images and the ongoing legacies of imperial collection.
Open to all Tufts students, faculty and staff.
Non-fiction cinema in recent years has been marked by trafficking in colonial archives, in the form of film, photographs, folders, documents, often to be interrogated, mined, repurposed. Focusing on moving image archives, this workshop is a practical approach to the ethics, limits and possibilities of editing with and against found footage. No experience required.
Open to all Tufts students, faculty and staff.
In this workshop you will learn basic video recording strategies and editing tools. We will use the Video Recording Kit which has a Sony a6600 mirrorless camera and Adobe Premiere Pro but skills are translatable to other cameras and software. We will cover basic media management, recording and editing techniques, and saving your files. We hope by the end of this workshop you will feel empowered to check out media equipment and know more about resources available to support you during your next project.
