Call to documentary companies and individuals for archive material of Bristol
ArthurCox, a Bristol based animation and production company have been awarded funding to make a digital archive project called ‘A Time Traveller’s Guide to Bristol’. The archive project is funded by the Regional Investment Fund England (RIFE) through the UK Film Council’s Digital Film Archive Fund via South West Screen. It has also secured funding from Arts Council England.
Have YOU got it?
The project involves building a website and an iPhone application based on six hotspot areas of Bristol and the project is working in partnership with Bristol Museums, Galleries and Archives. Mobile Pie are developing the iPhone application and Micro-films.org are building the website. The project is sponsored by Destination Bristol and SS Great Britain with in-kind support from Pre-construct and Aardman.
The project will draw extensively upon archival material held in the City’s collections, to create a digital urban archive of film and photographs enabling the audience to be able to visualize their city as different layers over the past century, as well as in the present and future. The six hotspots in Bristol are: Redcliffe, Park Street, The Harbour, The Downs, Castle Park and Stokes Croft. The resulting project will be shown at summer festivals throughout Bristol including the ‘Festival of Ideas’ in May and will be homed at the new Museum of Bristol (called M-Shed), opening in 2011.
Arthur Cox are now seeking film, audio or photo archive of these six areas - Do you have archive material you could contribute towards the project? It doesn’t matter if the films are from last weekend or 100 years ago. Any material you contribute will be added to the city’s heritage archives as part of the shared memories of the city with the owner’s consent.
