BEAMA X NORTHERN IRELAND SCREEN’S DIGITAL FILM ARCHIVE
Wednesday 25th June from 2pm - 4pm
Location: Oh Yeah! Music Centre, Belfast
Dive into a unique, hands-on experience that blends select clips from Northern Ireland Screen’s Digital Film Archive with music technology and performance tools. This dual-part workshop for adults explores two innovative ways to work with footage and audio. Ideal for editors, DJs, producers, AV artists, and content creators. No prior experience required—just curiosity and creativity!
Part 1 – AV Performance with Rekordbox & Pioneer Controllers:
Learn how to sync archival video clips with music using Rekordbox’s audiovisual features and Pioneer DJ hardware. Participants will gain practical skills in mapping, triggering, and manipulating visuals in real time to build compelling, narrative-rich performances.
Part 2 – Creative Sound Design with Launchpad: Discover how to turn archive-sourced samples into original music using the iPad Launchpad app. This session covers triggering, live FX, and constructing soundtracks for multimedia projects using licensable archival content.
