The culmination of the Yale Film and Media Studies Program course “The Film Archive,” this screening will highlight seven eclectic short films acquired by the Yale Film Archive and overseen by student archivists this semester. The course, taught by Yale Film Archive Managing Archivist Brian Meacham, is built around a semester-long project in which each student selects, acquires, inspects, repairs, views, and researches a film to be added to the Yale Film Archive. In CLASS PICTURES, they will present these 16mm shorts with an introduction to each from the student archivist who selected and worked on it. A presentation of the Yale Film Archive and the Yale Film and Media Studies Program, with support from Paul L. Joskow ’70 M.Phil., ’72 Ph.D.
