Cantrills Filmnotes was a magazine about experimental films published in Melbourne, Australia, between 1971 and 2000.

History and profile

Cantrills Filmnotes was founded and published by Arthur and Corinne Cantrill.[1] The first issue of the magazine appeared in March 1971.[2] Its headquarters was in Melbourne.[3] Arthur and Corinne Cantrill were editors of Cantrills Filmnotes.[4] The frequency of the magazine varied: for the first two years it was published on a bi-monthly basis; from 1973 to 1974 it was published four times a year and from 1975 to 2000 it was published biannually.[2] The first issue of Cantrills Filmnotes appeared in the A4 format, but the remaining issues were printed in the 270x210mm format.[4]

Cantrills Filmnotes was financed by the Australian Film Commission from October 1984 (issue #45/46) to December 1998 (issue #91/92).[1][5] The magazine covered articles, which featured the reviews of experimental films or avant-garde films, video art and digital media.[1][6] All these topics were discussed from the artists' perspectives in the magazine.[4]

Cantrills Filmnotes ceased publication with the issue December 1999-January 2000 (#93-100) due to financial problems.[1][2][5]
