The Archive presented a tribute to the life and work of Italian filmmaker and poet Pier Paolo Pasolini (pictured here at right, with filmmaker Federico Fellini) during 1984. Audio recordings related to the Pasolini tribute make up part of the Archive Events Collection.

The UCLA Film and Television Archive, the UCLA Department of Film, Television and Digital Media and partnering organizations have invited numerous guests and media industry practitioners to speak to audiences in conjunction with screenings, master classes and symposiums. The UCLA Film and Television Archive Research and Study Center holds unabridged audio recordings for many of these panel discussions, conferences and other public forum events. These recordings are available for onsite listening by appointment in the Archive Research and Study Center’s offices located in 46 Powell.
