Beauty in the Making Exhibition

So yesterday I went to the Beauty in the Making Exhibition which was run in association with GF Smith Papers.

The exhibition was to showcase the methods behind paper production and the processes it goes through in order to become the paper we buy in the shops.

There were demonstrations of paper making and I even had a go at letterpress and envelope folding. There was also some amazing samples of some original hand drawn type from the 1930's. It was great to see the tipex marks on the paper - it made it so much more real.

After the exhibition I managed to go a couple of industry talks. the first one was from the director of Future Shorts the company that contains The Other Cinema, Future Cinema and The Secret Cinema. It was a really insightful talk all about the relationship between film and the audience and the future of short films and cinema.

Here are some pictures from the exhibition
