Engranaje – a live editing interface for narrative films. Presentation at Hangar's multipurpose room on Thursday January 24, 2008.

A demonstration of Engranaje, a live editing interface for narrative (or other!) films. Engranaje is designed to allow cinema audiences to accompany the editing process. A 1m diameter tactile circular screen allows the director/manipulator to access and organise large quantities of audiovisual material into units of shots and sequences. You can see how it works at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RL_-CJulzyI

A 15 minute short film will be edited, and the demonstration will also include an explanation of how the interface works and free time to allow the audience to experience the interface.

This project was developed using PureData and Processing software, with the support of Hangar, as part of the Universitat Pompeu Fabra’s Masters in Digital Arts.
