Cinéclub Podcast episode 16 is a conversation with the San Francisco-based experimental filmmaker Greta Snider. (In the podcast intro I say it’s episode 15 and I can’t find the time to go back and fix it!) Greta has been making films since the late 1980s, and around the same time, produced seven issues of a fanzine called Mudflap. For me, much of Greta’s work is characterised by a tactile, handmade feel and cut-up, collage-like effects that often drawn on recontextualised archive footage.
We discuss the influence of punk and fanzine culture on Greta’s films, her experiences teaching experimental filmmaking, the role of politics in her work, her stereoscopic films, and much more.
