I wanted to see if I could use leaves for 16mm direct animation. 🎞️

I got some foliage from the area outside my studio. 🍁

And taped this onto 16mm film leader using clear splicing tape. ✂️

I ran the film through my Lego filmscanner. 📸

And there you have it, a Stan Brakhage-inspired found foliage film! 🦋

This project is called Paint, draw scratch, bleed on me and leave me hanging. 🎞️

It invited people at a party to leave their mark on these 16mm film strips. 🖍️

I had these acrylic markers and nails hanging on the wall next to it and here you see me remove the work the next day. 🎨

I will post the results of this collaborative art work soon. 🫟

16mm direct animation! This is the result of a 2 hour workshop I gave in Amsterdam. I will also teach this workshop from my studio, let me know if you would like to join! 🎞️

Scanned using my DIY Lego scanner!

I made a 16mm film scanner using Lego technic! 🎞️⚙️

The film is slowly pulled by a motor, passing the frames in front of a camera with a macro lens that I picked up at MPB for 60 euros. The rig itself sits on a glass plate from my fridge. It films constantly, capturing all the frames as a video. Then I asked Chat GPT to write me a Python script that selects the frames and only keeps those where the sprocket holes are perfectly aligned.
