Aktwechsel – 35mm Workshop

In the organizer's words:

Taster course on analog film projection

Around a decade ago, digitization abruptly and completely changed the cinema landscape. Within a short space of time, films were no longer delivered to cinemas as film reels, but in the then new standard format DCP (Digital Cinema Package): initially on hard disks and now mainly as downloads. Although digital projection offers many advantages, Kino im Blauen Salon attaches great importance to continuing the tradition of analog film screenings.

It has not escaped our notice that our audience appreciates the love of analog. The screening room, the secret place where the light comes from, has often been opened on request. But from now on, the doors are wide open, so come along to the workshop and lend a hand when it's FILM DOWN!!!!

The workshop offers the following content:
- a detailed look behind the scenes of analog film projection
- an introduction to the history of film projection and the identification of different
- film materials, image and sound formats and their different handling.
- the evaluation of the film material and preparation for the screening
- Inserting and screening the analog film material by hand
