The Crafts Council will be previewing film-based works from their forthcoming exhibition, Real to Reel: Film as material in making, in three thematic programmes. The screening will take place at designjunction a bespoke pop-up cinema designed by architects Carmody Groake as part of the London Design Festival.

One of their three programmes is ANIMATED CRAFT, which consists a selection of animations curated by Animate Projects' Associate Director, Gary Thomas. This series of 18 minute film reel will be shown on a loop from 8:30am on 19 September and from 2pm on 21 September.

The animations in the programme are:
1 Le fiamme di Nule, Carolina Melis, 7’40”
2 Turntable, Jim Le Fevre, 34”
3 Heavy Pencil, Jim Le Fevre , 1’26”
4 Morling and the Hoard, Katharine Morling, 2’49”
5 Mr. Watt (Grumpy Man of Metal), Jon Mills, 1’38”
6 The Little Red Plane, Charlotte Blacker, 3’39”

Real to Reel: Film as material in making is Craft Councils' new touring exhibition which explores films that are a final product of contemporary makers’ practice; each an artwork in its own right. All of the films are concerned with craft and design thematically, technically or materially.
