Film restoration

Within its program of basic and specialization courses in the conservation and restoration of the materials that make up our heritage, the Restoration School will organize a course on preservation of film material in Madrid from April 7 to 11.

The objective of the course is to approach the world of film materials, their problems and conservation. With a duration of twenty hours, the course will be taught in the morning shift, and will cost 250 euros.

The student will learn about the work done in film libraries and archives, how to deal with the preservation of a film collection and how to make minimal interventions on individual objects. Although most of the course will be theoretical, students will have the opportunity to deal with film material, learn how to perform splicing and repairs, as well as cleaning with solvents.

The course will be taught by Clara Sánchez-Dehesa Galán, Diploma in Conservation and Restoration of Graphic Documents from the Higher School of Conservation and Restoration of Cultural Assets of Madrid.

For a year he spent a stay at the Conservation Laboratory of the Televisa Foundation in Mexico City, specializing in Photography Conservation. At the same time, she worked as a conservation assistant for the Manuel Álvarez Bravo Association (Mexico City).

In 2011 he completed the Film Preservation Certificate at the L. Jeffrey Selznick School of Film Preservation in Rochester, NY. She subsequently enjoyed a stay in the Motion Picture Deparment at The Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum in Nashville, TN and the Haguefilm Foundation Fellowship for the restoration of a film from the George Eastman House Collection in Amsterdam.
