TID Exploring Time 005 by Builders Club by Builders Club


‚It’s an observation of a moment in time and what happens to our mind when we let go and start drifting away. Something ordinary suddenly becomes the impulse for our imagination and we find ourselves wondering where reality ends and imagination starts. Only to wake up realising that it was only relativity playing with us.‘

Insomnia by Islena Neira


C’est la nuit et un garçon n’arrive pas à dormir.

Rallye d’animation à l’EMCA. Cinq jours et deux minutes de court-métrage à faire.
Pour attaque cette proposition j’ai improvise le jour précédant le rallye une chanson au piano que j’ai enregistre avec mon téléphone. Cette petite chanson m’est donne l’idée d’une histoire que j’ai improvise plan après plan pendant le rallye.

Transient by Dustin Farrell (www.dfvc.com)


„Transient“
[tran-shuh nt, -zhuh nt, -zee-uh nt]
Adjective. not lasting, enduring, or permanent; lasting only a short time; existing briefly.
Philosophy. person or thing that is transient, especially a temporary guest, boarder, laborer, or the like.
Electricity. a sudden pulse of voltage or current.

All footage available to license at 4K resolution. Contact: dustin@dfvc.com

„Transient“ is a compilation of the best shots from my storm chasing adventures of summer 2017. Most of the lightning footage was captured in uncompressed raw at 1000 frames per second with our Phantom Flex4K. This summer I chased for over 30 days and traveled 20K miles. My respect and admiration for storm chasers became even stronger this year. This is one of the most difficult projects I have ever attempted in my career. On several occasions I found myself uncomfortable either mentally or physically. Chasing storms with a Phantom Flex4K is stressful even when things are going well. There were at least 10 days where I returned home with my tail between my legs and nothing to show after a ten hour chase and 500 miles. There were also a couple of days that I drove home with an ear to ear smile that lasted for hours. Most of the lightning was captured in my home state of Arizona. I also spent a week in the Great Plains chasing with Chad Cowan. It was during this time that I captured a time-lapse of the massive super-cell shown twice in Transient. For some reason that damn super-cell refused to spit out a proper bolt.

Lightning is like a snowflake. Every bolt is different. I learned that lightning varies greatly in speed. There are some incredible looking bolts that I captured that didn’t make the cut because even at 1000fps they only lasted for one frame during playback. I also captured some lightning that appear computer generated it lasted so long on the screen.

Technical info: The Phantom Flex4K is a camera that must be post triggered while shooting high speed. This works out well for capturing lightning because the camera is always recording and rewriting to internal ram. As soon as a bolt appears in my view finder I trigger the camera to save what has been stored in the ram. Shooting at high frame rates requires a lot of light. Therefore, I mostly used my Zeiss Otus 28, 55, and 85mm lenses wide open at f1.4. In all, I captured 10TB of data during this production.

Special thanks to Chad Cowan for many of the time-lapse shots in the video and to Mike Olbinski for the storm chasing advice and guidance.

“Laplanders” (FILM) – Official Selection, IF4™ 2017 by HOOKÉ


After a year of touring the world in the International Fly Fishing Film Festival – IF4 we are happy to share with you the full film.

Laplanders traces the portrait of those who live by the rivers of Lapland in Northern Sweden. Their quest for the Baltic Salmon is one every fisherman can relate to: an ever-going search for the next fish, and the only certitude is the efforts that will be needed to reach it. This film is an immersion into the life of those who chase, document and protect the salmon in the land of the midnight sun.

Après avoir fait le tour du monde dans la tournée IF4 voici notre film réalisé en Suède l’an dernier : LAPLANDERS

Laplanders trace le portrait de ceux qui vivent en harmonie avec les rivières dans le nord de la Suède où l’on y retrouve le Saumon Baltique. Voici leur conquête infinie pour essayer de le capturer.

nature morte 1 by baron lanteigne


This is the first iteration of nature morte. This on-going project is about embedded worlds and how we perceive our surroundings. This test blends five different worlds: a video documentation of a sculpture, a virtual surrealist world, a graphical user interface and worlds that explore transitional states between these realities.

My goal is to create physical access points to my virtual environments in order to explore our relationship with technology that allows bridges between worlds. In nature morte, I am working with immobile subjects in somewhat static environments. Dynamism is created through the constant renewal of our point of view in these worlds.

THE HAPPIEST BARRACK I A LEGVIDÁMABB BARAKK by Noemi Varga


The Happiest Barrack is an experimental documentary, a chronicle of my maternal grandmother’s life in Communist Hungary. It serves as a memento of times past and as a reminder of how socialism colonized the soul’s of a generation.
