[Frameworks] Warren Sonbert - retrospective tour available

[Mark Toscano]

Though it's great these films are showing again, it's too bad that it's mentioned nowhere that the extensive preservation/restoration work done to make them available was performed by the Academy Film Archive in Los Angeles.

I didn't work on them myself - this project pre-dated my time at the archive by a bit.  But my colleagues here did a huge amount of work on these films, and I'd like to ask anyone who's showing these prints to consider thanking the Academy Film Archive in their own promotional materials, if they're so inclined.

Hi Frameworks,
Scott at the Images Festival in Toronto writing to let you know about a very special tour: 
the complete works of Warren Sonbert being undertaken by Light Cone in Paris.

The monthly screening salon I work on here in Toronto with Kate MacKay and Chris Kennedy, 
"Early Monthly Segments", is kicking off the tour next month and we're doing some friendly 
outreach in the hopes that the films will circulate far and wide.

Series organizer Jon Gartenberg (www.gartenbergmedia.com/about.html) is available to 
speak along with the films. He's an incredible fountain of knowledge as an archivist,
distributor and programmer.

Here is Light Cone's page where you can read about each of the 7 programs:

Warm regards,
Scott
