World renowned artist Steven Woloshen will introduce participants to the process of making films without a camera, a technique also known as “Cameraless Animation.”
Participants will have the opportunity to use diverse types of materials to draw, scratch and paint over strips of film. The final animation, compiling all the film strips and synchronized with jazz music, will be exhibited at the entrance of the Museum of Texas Tech. All materials will be provided.
Working in cameraless animation since 1982, Steven Woloshen creates handmade abstract films and time-based installations using scratches and lacerations on film stock. As in jazz, improvisation and chance are important aspects of his work. Woloshen has been a lecturer, juror, technician, animator, craftsman, and has conducted workshops on camaraless animation all over the world. He is Specialist of Archival Material at the National Film Board, Montreal, Canada, a world leading institution in film archival and conservation practices. He has authored the practical guidebook on camaraless film-making Scratch, Crackle & Pop (2015).
