AFW is very excited to announce a rare selection of experiments in timelapse and animation from local filmmakers Dirk De Bruyn, Ivor Cantrill, Magenta Green, Margaret Haselgrove, Audrey Lam and Virginia Murray. Join the filmmakers in-person for an excursion through exotic modes of time and space! Featuring stop-motion, rotoscoping, single-frame timelapses and plenty more!

Merry Go Round - Magenta Green, 1987 (12 mins)
Like an Australiana Frank Zappa fever dream - a frenetic carnival of surreal costumes, puppets, fairy bread & hills hoist shenanigans.

The Lead Dress - Virginia Murray, 1985 (9 mins)
A beautiful, gothic film about a mother so desperate to keep her daughter at home that she sews her a lead dress which impedes her movement.

Replay – Margaret Haselgrove, 1998 (6 mins)
Past associations are triggered in a reverie of trepidation and longing, as a woman, alone in a room, listens to another woman's voice on a tape recording. Reflecting back on itself, the film reinvokes its former fragments in a panic of sexual identity.

Boerdery - Dirk de Bruyn, 1985 (9 mins)
A time-lapse document of a farmhouse in the Netherlands mapping the changing
seasons, the light and shadows. Made with an interval-meter fashioned out of
a wind screen wiper motor.

Discs - Dirk de Bruyn, 1984 (3 mins)
An experimental film showing various record covers.

Underground - Audrey Lam, 2007 (4 mins)
A photo cut-out film in which a young woman awakes in a train station and finds herself swept into the scrum of its commuters, all hurrying to catch their impending trains.

Myself When Fourteen - Ivor Cantrill, 1989 (18 mins)
Brightly coloured animated drawings rotoscoped from high contrast black and white negative film of Ivor Cantrill aged 14, are integrated with the original negative and positive images on an optical printer to create patterns of black, white and colour. The film-maker reminisces about being 14 and describes the rotoscoping process.
