EXPERIMENTAL MEDIA
"Animation is not the art of drawings that move but the art of movements that are drawn" Norman McLaren This short, simple and lively experimental film, created in 1940, features a series of blue dots that appear to fall across the screen in various directions. Both the images and sound are created by drawing with pen and ink directly on to the film strip. This is a simple technique that yields interesting results. A strong sense of falling is achieved by the dots becoming smaller with each successive frame until they disappear into the far distance below. Matching the images, the sound descends in unison with the flow of the images. This sense of motion is what draws me towards using the camera less film technique to create my experimental media piece. Comments are closed.
