Today Friday 19 June at 21.30 in the Cines del Sur marquee (Plaza Bibarrambla), the works created by the participants in the Live Cinema Workshop held over the last few days as part of the Granada Cines del Sur Festival will be shown.
The Live Cinema Workshop was run by the Asociación Cultural Miga and took place between 15 and 19 June, always in afternoon sessions (from 17:00 to 22:00). This Association, formed in 2004 and located in Granada, regularly includes all types of artistic representation in its workshops: DJs, VJs, live music, net art, graphic design, experimental video and electoacoustics are all included to develop, feed and expand ideas and projects.
The new tools in the field of computers for sound and visual creation that the Live Cinema Workshop has investigated include the development of software and creative techniques, making training in these fields an added value for the artistic creation and trying to provide a complete idea of the different facets that are involved in an activity like video creation in real time or VJ-ing. A series of links were created between different techniques for obtaining images in movement and current digital tools, their editing and manipulation as well as the final preparation for using them live.
Additionally, the workshop included a review, in the form of a historical introduction, to the figure of the video jockey (VJ), an approach to video language and the digital image from the use of resources for the production of material, an analysis of specific tools for live visual creation and a study of editing and appropriate staging. Finally, special emphasis was placed on audio-visual synchronisation, offering students the knowledge necessary to make totally synchronised audiovisual works to be shown in public, as all will be able to see in the exhibition that will take place on Friday night.
