Film Workshop dictated by Sharelly Emanuelson in partnership with Atelier’89
ORANJESTAD — Atelier’89 proudly present ‘PRETIWOWO’ (the
apple of my eye) a red carpet event that will take place
on Sunday June 30, 2019 at Windcreek Theatre and Casino
starting at 8PM.
Pretiwowo is a screening filled with short films presented by
participants of the film workshop dictated by local artist
Sharelly Emanuelson. One of the best ways to learn filmmak-
ing is to get inspired by other filmmakers, and to try out new
techniques. This year they were honored to have Sharelly in
their residence giving a film workshop to fifteen participants
once a week for a month. The participants learned new
techniques and ideas. For example; How to configure and
film individual images, how to use sound and how to bring
them together to tell a story and influence what people feel
about it. At the end of the workshop, each one had the task
of creating a short film.
Sharelly Emanuelson (1986) is a filmmaker & video artist
based in the Dutch Caribbean. She acquired her B.A. in Au-
diovisual Media from the School of Arts, Utrecht, followed by
a M.A. in Artistic Research at the Royal Academy of Art, The
Hague. Her first documentary film “Su Solo I Playanan” (2010)
won an audience award at the Africa in the Picture film fes-
tival (2012). “Su Solo” was screened at several film festivals
and public debate platforms. With her latest video installa-
tion “Doh mix meh up” she won the 2014 Royal Academy of
Art Master award.
Atelier’s 89 together with Sharelly Emanuelson, DJ Adriano
Nanof and all participants of the film workshop would like to
invite you to join them at the screening of these short films.
