Bildsabotage

Analog Film Workshop 
30.10. - 01.11.20

Conception & Realisation

Svenja Simone Schulte & Dennis Vetter 

A project by bi’bakwerk.


Cinema, whether analog or digital, historic or brand new, is part of social reality. It is as political, as conservative, as progressive as those who shape the films, their venues and the film industry in their actions. To think about cinema today from a critical perspective requires coming to terms with its existing images.This confrontation can mean changing images, placing them in new contexts, sabotaging them.

In the workshop Bildsabotage, we therefore invite you to join us in practically questioning internationally popular images of US cinema. We want to take a closer look at blockbuster films of the past decades on the basis of their trailers on analog film reels, play with them, edit them and change their form. Using scratching tools, paints and adhe- sive tape, we want to get to the heart of the trailers.

Finally, completely new short films will be created from the found film material. Bildsabotage is aimed at anyone who sees images as political. No previous knowledge of analog film is required.
