Color Club is a workshop for ten participants to learn how to operate Super 8 cameras and hand process color reversal films. The workshop will last five days, in addition to one day to screen the films shot and developed during the workshop. The workshop is part of Beirut Art Center\u2019s educational and outreach program, organized by Siska in conjunction with Eric Baudelaire\u2019s exhibition, Now Here Then Elsewhere. Film Processing will take place in The Mansion where the lab is installed.\u2028\u2028<\/p>\n
The theme of the Color Club Workshop is Fukeiron, a theory conceived of by Masao Adachi, a Japanese filmmaker and scriptwriter who first came to Lebanon in the early 1970s and was active with the Red Army Faction during the war. It is a \u2018theory of landscape\u2019, a way of reading landscape\u2019s many facets, from a site of fiction to a space for political engagement. \u2028\u2028<\/p>\n
As an introduction, together with Eric Baudelaire, who has collaborated with Adachi since 2010, Siska will screen some of Adachi\u2019s films on the first day of the workshop. The participants will then conceive of a synopsis for a scene that they would like to shoot over the next four days, adapting the cinema of landscape and anticipating the final edit of their film. They will be working with Kodak Ektachrome 100D film, a format that is no longer being produced as of December 2012. Each participant will work with three minutes of film, devising, scripting, shooting and then developing a scene. Edited together, the scenes will form of a 30 minute film that will be screened to the public at Beirut Art Center and The Mansion.<\/p>\n
