Filmmagie: Filmen zonder camera
Discover the magic of cinema with these six, short animations. After the programme children can make their own 16 mm film by drawing on, perforating or sticking things onto film strips.

Programme
Dancin' the Camera (Pieter Rim de Kroon, NL 2015)
Dance film about a tap dancer who makes a journey of discovery through the mechanical world of black & white film. The camera functions as camera, backdrop and character. The camera and a pianist try to seduce the tap dancer into a duet.
Le six soeurs dainef (unknown, FR 1902)
Coloured short silent film from 1902 featuring six female acrobats known as 'Les reines du tapis' performing remarkable feats on stage.
IJs eten (Ton van Saane, NL 1970)
Coloured animation of cut-out figures against a black background combined with chalk drawings. Two children are given lots and lots of ice creams. Delicious, but what do you do with them all?
Chigago Footwarmers (Ton van Saane, NL 1967)
Abstract forms drawn directly onto celluloid move to the jazz of the Chicago Footwarmers.
De wastafel (Ton van Saane, NL 1968)
Animation combining drawings on cut out paper moving a cut-out animation. If you can’t reach the tap, you’ll have to come up with something. But watch out! The water goes everywhere!
Surprise Boogie (Albert Pierru, FR 1957)
Experimental short film featuring scratches and drawings made directly onto the film strip creating abstract and figurative images accompanied by uplifting jazz.
Workshop Filmen zonder Camera (30')
After the film programme, the audience will be able to participate in the workshop Filmen zonder Camera [filming without a camera], during which participants will create their own 16mm films by working directly on celluloid; drawing on it, puncturing it and affixing things to it.
All children must be accompanied. Filmmagie is not suitable for children’s parties.
