Next, Click: Finding a Future for Filmstrips

22 May 2024

On Friday 24 May, The Centre for Screen Studies will be hosting a workshop (Next, Click: Finding a Future for Filmstrips) as part of Professor Tom Rice’s RSE network, The Lost World of Filmstrips.

Following previous workshops at the NLS, Edinburgh and The National Archives, London, this third, and final, in-person event brings together a range of archivists and scholars from across the UK and Europe. Here they will both reflect on the findings of the network – the rediscovered materials and archival connections – and also look forward, to imagine and map possible futures for the filmstrip, which was one of the most versatile, popular and well-travelled media forms in the mid-20th century.
