Craig Baldwin

Craig Baldwin is an American experimental filmmaker based in San Francisco. He is the pioneer of a technique he has dubbed "Collage Narrative," which is the telling of a fictional narrative story in film through the sole or majority use of footage clipped from other movies and TV shows.

Baldwin's most famous collage narratives are Tribulation 99, Spectres of the Spectrum and the epic Mock Up on Mu. He learned about the potential of collage filmmaking from Bruce Conner.

Baldwin is also a leading figure on the San Francisco film scene, helping to create the weekly Other Cinema screening series, which was then spun into a DVD distribution label, Other Cinema DVD that releases both Baldwin's films, as well as the work of many other experimental filmmakers.
