About:
In this 3-day workshop, we will be experimenting with creating matts, rayogramming and printing in multiple layers on a Steenbeck editing table. The loops that we create from this material will be used to experiment with expanded cinema performance with multiple projectors. The workshop will culminate in a collective performance by the workshop participants.
Cost:
We ask for a limited fee of 500kr to cover some of the costs of materials, but if you are unwaged/low-waged get in touch as we have some free spaces. We aim to make Polar Film Lab as accessible as possible, for as broad a group as possible, and aim to offer as much free or on a ‘Pay what you can’ framework as possible - if you receive project funding or have an income, we ask that you help us keep doing what we are doing by paying a small fee.

Polar Film Lab is a membership collective providing space and community around analogue film in Tromsø, northern Norway. We supply working facilities, and hold film screenings, masterclasses and workshops to improve the opportunities for artists working with film in the North, and to expand the knowledge around analogue and experimental film both within and outwith the arts community. It runs with a ‘do-it-yourself’ focus, aiming to bring more people into direct contact with analogue film.
PFL was co-founded in 2016 by the artist Emilija Škarnulytė and curator Sarah Schipschack.
