So – my FLM108 (Intro to Film) has been working hard this semester shooting, for the first, projects on 16mm Black & White film.

We have been using the marvelous ARRI-S MOS cameras, and using Kodak 16mm B&W Reversal Film.

Here are two examples. They’re simple, sure, but this is a beginning class.

The first film is a mise-en-scène single-shot exercise, modeled after the early films by the Lumière Brothers, in 1895. The second film is a montage film, modeled after the work of early Russian directors, like Kuleshov and Eisenstein, in the 1920s.

Enjoy!

Please note – the films were also edited the old-fashioned way, on a flatbed editing table, using splicers and splicing tape!

Thanks for watching!
