“For most of her filmmaking career, the integrity of Strand’s vision lay aslant of prevailing fashions, so that only belatedly did the full significance of her radically pioneering work in ethnographic, documentary, feminist, and compilation filmmaking-and above all, in the innovation of a unique film language created across these modes-become clear. Though feminism and other currents of her times are woven through her films and though her powerful teaching presence sustained the ideals of underground film in several film schools in the city, hers was essentially a school-of-one.” David James, in The Most Typical Avant-Garde: History and Geography of Minor Cinemas in Los Angeles.

Robert Schaller: A Practice of Film as Music

Robert Schaller is a filmmaker and composer whose current projects revolve around the integration of film and classical chamber music, handmade pinhole cinematography, handmade film emulsion, and dance. His works have shown at many venues and festivals in the United States, Europe, and Australia. Robert founded and directs the Handmade Film Institute, an internationally known non-profit organization based in the Rocky Mountain foothills west of Boulder, CO, that is dedicated to the understanding and teaching of photochemical processes as a tool for the making of cinematic art. He received his MFA in 1997 at the University of Colorado in Interdisciplinary Arts, working with Phil Solomon and Stan Brakhage. He was a faculty member at the University of Colorado, and subsequently taught at the San Francisco Art Institute. He teaches classes, seminars, and workshops with the Handmade Film Institute, and has been a teacher and visiting artist at numerous Colleges, Universities, and artist organizations around the world.

Robert will talk about the formal and performative influences that musical thinking offers to the art of filmmaking.
