Electric Cinema this month features a selection of the best DepicT! films over the past eight years. From Monday 11 June, classics such as Experiment 60713/B, a spoof of the old Soviet test films by Tom Baxandall and Alan Gardener, and As I was Falling... by Rachel Tillotson, which follows the journey of an anonymous man from the rooftop of a building to the ground below, can be viewed on this online gallery space.
Electric Cinema is an online venue presenting a dazzling array of short films, animation and emerging digital media talent, either newly produced or from Watershed’s archive. Month by month it presents specially selected programmes of moving image work from Bristol, the region and beyond.
