45th Anniversary Retrospective Zine

Published: 12 July 2026

 

45th Anniversary Retrospective Zine was created through an open commission call for our anniversary.

We’re pleased to announce that the LIFT 45th Anniversary Retrospective Zine is finally complete! Featuring written work and images old and new, from members former and current, this zine reflects on the role of time in LIFT’s history, and in our practice as filmmakers. With new technologies and techniques developed every day, how have filmmakers responded and adapted to these changes? Reflect on and celebrate our history as an organization with us. All proceeds fund LIFT’s commitment to supporting the craft of filmmaking.
