Join us for Canyon Cinema’s inaugural film commissioning project! Borrowing its title from J.J. Murphy’s astounding structural showpiece, Print Generation (1974), and inspired by the centennial of 16mm film (1923–2023), Print Generations was conceived to support analog-based filmmaking in the Bay Area. For this first iteration, three filmmakers — Tijana Petrović, Amy Reid, and TT Takemoto — were selected through an open call to create new cinematic works. No restrictions were imposed on the proposed films’ subject matter, style, or length. The only requirement was a commitment to working with 16mm. The newly created films screen for the first time at SFMOMA, complemented by works from the Canyon Cinema collection and selected by the Print Generations cohort.
Print Generations is supported by the Owsley Brown III Philanthropic Foundation, the National Endowment for the Arts, and the Phyllis C. Wattis Foundation. Technical support was provided by Oakland’s Black Hole Collective Film Lab, a DIY community resource center and art studio based in West Oakland.
