Refocus on history of found footage film-making. Embrace the high artness of this form rather than the cheap mass art of YouTube mash-ups. Craig Baldwin. Wood Allen. Guy Debord. Adopt a ‘look-down-the-nose’ approach to YouTube videos for a while to see how that goes. Explore found footage material more. The impact of digitality on the historical practice of found footage filmmaking. Movement 1.1 The Futures of Cinmea – Story Without End? Found Footage in the Digital Era. By Tilly Walnes. www.movementjournal.com. Recycling. Spatial montage. Manovich. E.g. After Effects videos (like CHI Media showreel). Matte extraction – physically putting cutouts from different films together. Temporal Photoshop collages. Cinematic montage vs collage. Montage is in sequence, collage is together in the same frame. Combining both together = Enda, Bertie. Digital compositing combined with linear editing – cinematic cluster where the spatial dimension takes precedence over the linear temporality of the piece. Time and space are no longer separate, but intertwined and overlapping in a new multi-dimensional form of montage. Source material not restricted to video – may include photos, analogue and digital film, drawings, engravings, newspapers, animation, graphics, typography. No longer medium specific, but rather all reducible to 1s and 0s, made of the same malleable stuff – interchangeable. Film is rejected by practitioners of ‘digital moving image’ or Motion Graphics (not quite). Footage is not accurate to describe all the media that may make up a remixed work. “Hybrid media text’? Recycled moving image collage? ‘Remix’ is too colloquial. Need a new and better term. Recycled cinema is too limited as it may incorporate video, audio, text, image, interactivity and code – any media type. Solid historical relationship to Found Footage Filmmaking, but it has evolved into a new beast. Need to read Manovich. All of his work indeed. ‘Found’ doesn’t apply. Material is ubiquitous online. ‘Footage’ does not apply – multiple media types. Filmmaking – the end result is not film – it is a digital moving image created using non-linear montage and spatial collage techniques in tandem. No longer subversive or critical – what was once experimental is now main-stream. Subversiveness is restricted to the unauthorized appropriation of copyrighted material.
