Il transatlantico “Conte Rosso” del Llyod Sabaudo nel Golfo di Genova - 20 marzo 1922
Film 35mm supporto nitrato - virato
Proprietà: Fondazione Ansaldo
Archivio cinematografico Movie and Sound Firenze
Scheda del film: “La festa del grillo alle Cascine” 1919
Durata: ~ 10’
Materiale originale in archivio: positiva B/N 35mm supporto nitrocellulosa
La Festa del grillo di Firenze fa parte di quelle manifestazioni popolari che accompagnavano numerose feste religiose cristiane. I fiorentini tramandarono nella giornata significati antichi, collegati all’archetipo della rinascita primaverile, riconosciuti probabilmente nel ritorno dei grilli dopo l’inverno. Da metà Ottocento, la Festa del Grillo divenne sempre più anche una festa degli innamorati che si appartavano con la scusa di cercare il grillo. E quando l’intenzione era seria, i giovani fiorentini donavano la gabbia con l’animaletto alla propria amata. Se il grillo sopravviveva fino al giorno di San Lorenzo, l’auspicio era buono.
Il film, girato in occasione della prima festa del grillo del primo dopoguerra, mostra riversarsi alle Cascine di una densa folla di donne e soprattutto uomini che indossano una paglietta, dando la misura della “popolarizzazione” di questo accessorio dell’abbigliamento. Numerosi carri e bancarelle per la vendita di bevande, cibi, le gabbiette con i grilli; orchestrine e gruppi danzanti e festosi. Il film è di grande interesse storico per la documentazione di questo specifico evento e ritrae anche i cortei di invalidi e associazioni di assistenza che si recano al parco delle Cascine.

Kodak Molecular Sieve Acid Scavenger
For moisture free film storage and extended dye images
Long-term storage of film has been an industry concern since the beginning of motion pictures. Moisture, temperature, acids and vapors from the atmosphere that surround stored film have an impact on the life expectancy of motion picture film.
“Vinegar Syndrome”, is a term used to describe the chemical reaction that goes on during the deterioration of cellulose triacetate film support. When cellulose triacetate begins to decompose, “deacetylation” occurs, and the acetate ion reacts with moisture to form acetic acid producing a vinegar odor when a can is opened. Once the reaction is started, it cannot be stopped.
Molecular Sieve is a technology developed by Eastman Kodak Company, that has the ability to re**rd the vinegar syndrome reaction. Simply stated, the inclusion of Molecular Sieve with processed motion picture film in a sealed container has the ability to extend the life of the dye images and film support beyond that which is currently considered normal.
Sindrome dell’aceto
La sindrome di aceto si verifica quando la pellicola in acetato è conservata in una stanza calda e umida, queste condizioni causano la decomposizione della pellicola, quando inizia a marcire, sprigiona acido acetico, lo stesso ingrediente dell’aceto domestico che gli conferisce odore e sapore caratteristici. L’acido accelera la degradazione della pellicola interessata, può persino danneggiare i contenitori di stoccaggio in metallo e altre pellicole conservate nelle vicinanze.
Vi presentiamo un libro fantastico , la parte del restauro cinematografico è stato scritto da Marco Pagni Fontebuoni l’amministratore e direttore tecnico del nostro laboratorio Movie and Sound.
Per la prima volta in Italia un numero ampio di restauratori e studiosi della fotografia affrontano la cultura materiale e gli aspetti di prevenzione, conservazione e restauro dei maggiori processi fotografici e cinematografici, dai dagherrotipi alle tecniche argentiche, da quelle non argentiche alle stampe digitali. Le fasi di restauro conservativo sono argomentate in modo analitico, con l’intento di proporre una base metodologica e critica che serva ad affrontare il restauro dei beni fotografici e cinematografici, riconosciuti in Italia come beni culturali solo all’affacciarsi del XXI secolo.

For Khatibi an iranian artist in exile, an artist who has the courage to fight for freedom
In some countries, including Iran, artists face restrictions and limitations on their freedom of expression. Governments or cultural authorities may impose censorship, regulations, or even persecution on artists who create work that challenges political or religious ideologies, or addresses sensitive social issues. These restrictions can stifle creativity and hinder the artist’s ability to freely express themselves. It is important to advocate for and support the freedom of artists to express themselves without fear of reprisal or censorship.

Workshop n.1
DaVinci Resolve workshop with Daria Fissoun (In inglese)
Durata: 4 ore
Costo : 120€ (Posti limitati, Registrazione obbligatoria)
Day 1 (duration 2 hours)
The first workshop focuses on best practices for project setup and management. We will see how correctly colour managed media ensures a smoother, higher-quality colour correction process down the pipeline. When correcting clips in preparation for a creative grade, you will learn the various techniques used to produce clean, well-balanced colours, even without a colour chart. And when first sitting down before an ungraded timeline, we will review the various common project types and how they can be best approached using DaVinci Resolve’s many grading methods.
Day 2 (duration 2 hours)
The second workshop explores the creative side of colour grading in DaVinci Resolve. One of the most valuable features of the software is its node-based approach to grading and adjusting the video signal. This allows us to work on images with great precision. After observing how nodes impact one another in the pipeline, you’ll have a better understanding of how and when to create new nodes and how to get started on a creative look. Some advanced secondary grading techniques will allow you to better target and affect regions of your image.
Daria Daria Fissoun (CSI) is a London-based colorist, compositor and certified DaVinci Resolve trainer with 12 years of post production experience. She specialises in commercial video projects (past clients include Microsoft, Nike, and Konami) and has worked on both US and UK feature productions, including a role as a post-production engineer on several Disney+ films. She currently develops training materials for Blackmagic Design's DaVinci Resolve software, and has written The Colorist Guide since its first release in 2019

Florence 1925 - 35mm nitrate film (Private archive) Preserving films is crucial for the preservation of our cultural heritage. Films are not only a form of entertainment but also a reflection of our society, history, and culture. They capture moments in time that can never be replicated, and they provide a window into the past for future generations. Unfortunately, the nitrate films are also incredibly fragile and susceptible to damage and decay. Without proper preservation, they can be lost forever. This is why it is so important to take steps to preserve films for future generations. Preservation involves a range of activities, from storing films in climate-controlled environments to digitizing them for long-term storage. It requires a significant investment of time, resources, and expertise, but the rewards are immeasurable. By preserving films, we are not only ensuring that they are available for future generations to enjoy, but we are also protecting our cultural heritage. We are preserving a part of our history and our identity, and we are ensuring that it will be remembered and celebrated for years to come. So let us all do our part in preserving films, whether it's by supporting preservation efforts or by taking steps to preserve our own personal collections. Together, we can ensure that the magic of film will continue to inspire and captivate audiences for generations to come.
