Registration is open for the AMIA (Association of Moving Image Archivists) webinar "Reuniting Films with Their Makers". It will take place on Tuesday, August 2, from 12:00 to 1:30 PM CDT. Please see below for more information, including a link to registration. This webinar is part of the Preservation for Filmmakers series.

Addressing the relationship between filmmakers, moving image archives, and film labs, this workshop will offer avenues and resources for filmmakers to reunite with their "lost" films. The widespread closure of film labs led to a fraught situation for many filmmakers trying to locate, share, and monetize their films. This workshop will provide an overview of how film labs ended up storing films, what happened when they closed, and approaches and networks you might explore in pursuing your own film elements. The history and critical role of moving image archives for filmmakers will also be covered to help foster the filmmaker/archive relationship. There is a vast network of moving image archives able and willing to assist filmmakers, not only in finding their films, but offering homes for them and ensuring their preservation and relevance long into the future.

The presenters are Rachael Stoeltje, founder and Director of the Indiana University Libraries Moving Image Archive; and Rick Prelinger, Chair and Professor of Film and Digital Media at the University of California, Santa Cruz, and also co-founder of Prelinger Library.
