Media Archive for Central England

Media Archive for Central England

Media Archive for Central England (MACE) is the public sector regional film archive that collects, preserves and provides access to film, television and other moving image materials that relate to the governmental regions of the East Midlands and West Midlands (region).

In 1995 it was registered as a company, with a board of directors, with the intention of creating the regional archive for the Midlands. MACE took on this role when James Patterson was appointed as its director in 2000. It is now an independent limited company and a registered charity based at the University of Lincoln.

MACE is one of eight publicly funded regional film archives that, along with other public sector film archives, are members of the Film Archive Forum (FAF).

MACE receives funding from Government via the regional screen agencies of the East and West Midlands: EM Media and Screen WM.

As the principal moving image archive service provider in the Midlands MACE works with a wide range of partners across the regions to help people to experience their moving image heritage.

MACE is guided by shared values and practices outlined by the Film Archive Forum. These values and practices focus on five primary/core functions:

  • Collection/acquisition
  • Research
  • Documentation/cataloguing
  • Preservation
  • Access to collections and information
