Explore 16mm experimental animation with multidisciplinary artist Mary Martins.

In this workshop, Mary will introduce you to scratching and drawing directly onto 16mm film/celluloid, using similar techniques to the experimental films of Len Lye and Norman McLaren. There will also be a showcase selection of her award-winning documentary shorts.

See all of your work come to life as it is projected at the end of the session. Your work will be digitised at a later stage and available to view and share online.

Mary Martins is a documentary animator and experimental filmmaker from London. She produces multi-layered documentaries that combine 16mm film and animation, exploring socially engaged themes, representing the experiences of marginalised groups, and celebrating her own Nigerian heritage.
