A unique opportunity to dive into analog cinema<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

During the 2026 Ferrania Film Festival<\/strong>, film enthusiasts, film students, photographers, and anyone curious about the medium will have the opportunity to participate in an intensive workshop focused on making a short film on 16 mm film<\/strong>, using one of the most iconic cameras in the history of cinema: the Bolex H16<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Led by the Warshadfilm<\/strong> collective and the L\u00e0bbash<\/strong>laboratory, participants will move through all stages of analog cinema production: from planning the shoot to developing the negative, from printing to the final screening of the film they created together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More than just a technical course, this workshop offers a complete immersion in the practice of analog filmmaking, allowing participants to directly experience the relationship between light, time, materials, and the creative process.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Bolex H16: a legend of independent cinema<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Bolex H16<\/strong> , produced in Switzerland by Paillard Bolex starting in 1935, is one of the most beloved cameras in the history of cinema. Thanks to its precision mechanics, robust construction, and extraordinary versatility, it has become, over the years, the tool of choice for filmmakers, documentary filmmakers, visual artists, and experimental artists around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even today, the Bolex H16 continues to be used in film schools, artistic workshops, and independent productions, serving as a reliable tool for those who choose to work with film and rediscover a completely manual way of shooting, where every frame is carefully conceived and constructed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the workshop, each participant will have the opportunity to use the Bolex H16 to experience firsthand how it works and understand its expressive potential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Per approfondire la storia della Bolex suggeriamo questa serie di articoli (parte 1<\/a> \u00b7 parte 2<\/a>) di Massimiliano Terzi su NOC Sensei.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Warshadfilm + L\u00e0bbash<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The workshop will be led by WARSHADFILM<\/strong><\/a>, a collective formed by Tiziano Doria<\/strong> and Samira Guadagnuolo<\/strong>, active in experimental and documentary analog cinema.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Their research is based on the rediscovery of analog film cinematography and on the possibility of control over the entire process, from shootings to development, printing and screening. In their workshops, cinema becomes a space of collective experimentation, where technique melds with observation of landscapes, artistic practice and the emergence of a collective gaze.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Their films have been selected for numerous international film festivals, including the Locarno Film Festival<\/strong>, Torino Film Festival<\/strong>, Mostra Internazionale del Nuovo Cinema di Pesaro<\/strong>, Festival dei Popoli<\/strong>, Bellaria Film Festival<\/strong>, International Short Film Festival Oberhausen<\/strong>, Trieste Film Festival<\/strong> and Thessaloniki International Documentary Festival<\/strong>, where they won the prestigious Golden Alexander Award<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to their film work, Tiziano and Samira founded L\u00e0bbash<\/a><\/strong>, an independent laboratory dedicated to photography and analog cinema, specialized in the processing of 16 mm film and major photographic formats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the laboratory, historic film cameras, developing machines, moviolas, telecines, printers, and projectors are salvaged, restored, and kept in working order, making it possible to preserve and pass on technical skills that are increasingly rare today.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
