about us.
Filmverkstaden rf is a centre of knowledge, inspiration and opportunity for analogue film and photography.
We are an independent artist-run film and photography lab, aiming to improve the opportunities for artists to work with independent audio-visual arts while raising interest for audio-visual art in general.
A national and international platform where artists and creative professionals involved with audio-visual arts can meet, create, develop, show and share their art. A place for development and experiment, through exchange of knowledge and inspiration.
Filmverkstaden provides working facilities, such as a fully equipped and functioning darkroom, specialised master classes and workshops, film screenings, interesting events and projects.
Filmverkstaden offers its facilities at Opistokatu 1, the former Opistotalo, in Vaasa.

Filmverkstaden offers funded production residencies for professional artists from other Nordic and Baltic countries working with experimental audiovisual art. The residencies are 1-2 months each.
Filmverkstadens residency program focuses on the production of analogue film-based works with equipment and facilities to which the artist would not have access in their local region. Artists are expected to be at an established point in their practice (although not necessarily working predominantly with audiovisual art).
Applicants will be asked to consider what they would bring to Vaasa in terms of community collaboration, teaching, workshops, artist talks and/or presentation activities—these engagements are a critical and required part of each residency offered by Filmverkstaden.In return Filmverkstaden offers the artists appropriate conditions for concentrated work, arranges meetings with other artists and facilitates contact with the arts and culture scene in the area of Vaasa and beyond. The residencies take place over a period of 1-2 months and can either be used for completion of a work, or for research and generation of work in progress.
We also welcome visitors from outside the Nordic and Baltic countries for self-funded and self-directed residencies!
