Lab
Fragmentarium
Fragmentarium is a series of filmmaking labs led by Anya Alekhina. Each lab is a different experiment in short-form filmmaking, using filming and editing as ways to observe, reflect and connect with the world. The formats and lengths may vary.
Portrait of
a Place
The first two labs began with a location. Participants used it as a starting point for a short film: a portrait of the place, or an idea that emerged from being there.
They could work through observation or take a more essayistic, diary-like approach.
Make a film
together.
The lab begins with examples, a conversation about film language, an individual meeting and a group discussion of ideas. Participants film in one day, edit the next and share the work at an evening screening.
Then, we screen it.
The short films are shared with the group that same evening.
