Reel Opportunity: towards a strategic partnership between the film archive and exhibition sectors
Supervisor: Ian Christie | University: Birkbeck, University of London
Tilly Walnes’ AHRC research paper outlines the practical and attitudinal barriers to screening archive film, as well as the opportunities it presents, as identified by professionals working in the two sectors and in strategic organisations. The paper concludes with suggestions for a number of practical strategies to foster collaboration between film archives and film exhibitors – cross-sector skills sharing, coordinated programming and dissemination of impact – to ensure that archive film is more regularly seen and valued by the UK public.
