Tyburnia - Q&A with James Holcombe

Today we watched Tyburnia which is an experimental film by James Holcombe about the old Tyburn gallows in central London. It was really interesting to get an insight into the world of experimental film and allowed me to begin to think of ideas for the experimental film we will be making. We had a Q&A with James Holcombe after the screening of the film and James spoke about why he chose to make the film and how he did it. I've never seen an experimental film before nor had much of an idea about how they are made so this was a fascinating Q&A. We'll be seeing James again on Saturday to try using chemical film for the first time, which we will be able to use when making our experimental films.
