OAKUFF 2014 - LOST LANDSCAPES

2:00 pm @ Humanist Hall
LOST LANDSCAPES
Director Rick Prelinger
90 min
Join OakUFF for an encore presentation of film archivist Rick Prelinger's first-ever East Bay-focused presentation in his lauded series of 'Lost Landscapes' screenings: a montage of rediscovered and rarely-seen film clips showing the Oakland of yore, captured by amateurs, newsreel cameramen, and industrial filmmakers. Prelinger, the founder of the legendary Prelinger Archives who has become known for sold-out Detroit and San Francisco 'Lost Landscapes' screenings, created this compilation of ephemera as a commission from the Oakland Museum of California. Critical Mass co-founder and director of community archive Shaping San Francisco Chris Carlsson guest emcees and narrates the program along with audience questions, shout-outs, and memories.
