What is experimental film - Fred Camper

Camper argues that defining experimental film into one genre is ill advised due to the vast quantity of separate methods experimental films can potentially practice. This includes styles already used all the way to ones not yet mentally conceived. Camper better categorizes experimental genre by creating a detailed list of traits that can be found in a majority of avant-garde films. Camper realizes that many experimental films do in fact encompass more than one trait. He points out that because the film is experimental it can have all traits, or none. By its very nature experimental films have no bounds to restrict it; therefore, having any number of traits included in your film can be accomplished.
