# ALCF Jim Hubbard Films Gay Pride New York 1987 Clip 5003

This clip (5003) is part of the Jim Hubbard Lesbian/Gay Community Film Footage . The collection includes moving image footage shot by filmmaker Jim Hubbard. “I started making films in 1974. In 1978, I began filming the Lesbian & Gay community. I have continued to film demonstrations and other public events and parties, gatherings and other more private moments of the Queer community ever since. I have always considered this footage to be home movies for the queer community. The footage originates on Regular-8, Super-8 and 16mm. Almost all of the footage is hand-processed in order to use color to enhance the emotional impact of the image. Hand-processing also allowed me to film at night in very low light and, by push-processing, to make the image visible. When I film demonstrations, I am not seeking to record the mass movement, but to find individuals in the crowd, to evoke the diversity of the multitude and to try to unearth the meaning of the event. The films include the protests against the making in Greenwich Village of the movie Cruising in the Summer of 1979, the protests in New York after the light sentence given to Dan White for the assassination of Harvey Milk and Mayor George Moscone of San Francisco. The footage also comprises Gay Pride Marches from 1983, 1987, and 1988 and the Gay Pride Run of 1985. There are also some ACT UP protests in Albany, and a Kiss-In and footage from an AIDS Candlelight Vigil on Christopher Street in 1988. All the footage was shot by Jim…
