Manual Cinema

Manual Cinema is a performance collective that combines handmade shadow puppetry, cinematic techniques, and innovative sound and music, to create immersive visual stories for stage and screen.

Using vintage overhead projectors, multiple screens, puppets, actors, live feed cameras, multi-channel sound design and live music ensemble, Manual Cinema transforms the experience of attending the cinema and imbues it with liveness, ingenuity and theatricality.

These unique artists  with their storytelling artistry and style, can create customized short movies and stories for private events, galas, or parties to be performed live, or to be pre-recorded and projected as an installation.
