GLACIER EXIT
GLACIER EXIT
We stood on the ice dunes of the glaciers of Alaska in the midst of a snowy winter. Trekking the slopes of another planet had been on our list for a long time. The silence and majesty of the mountains surrounding us, the bluest ice we had ever seen and the steady rush of ice turned to water. How did we get here? We met Rick by chance on a rainy road in Seward, Alaska. He had a worn, work jacket, a great white beard and the friendliest demeanor two travelers could ask for. He turned out to be the skeleton key to the locked treasure that was our way into Exit Glacier. We had the entire ice field to ourselves. And a sole chance to tell its story. So we took it.

Hi [insert client name here], We think we're nearly there on this. It’d be great to get your thoughts/comments and of course, let us know if you spot anything obviously wrong. Best, Mainframe - This was an experimental film put together simply as an opportunity to have a play in-between projects. After much deliberation we set ourselves a brief to create a collection of scenarios subverting the physical properties of...anything. It made for some interesting comments along the way. “That egg’s not bouncy enough, the cloth coming out of the tap needs to feel more like water, the bowling ball needs to feel heavier as it floats off…”. We suddenly realised we were playing our own client (hence the in-joke above) This is FauxPhysics_09_FINAL_V16_ForApproval_FINAL_withAudio_FINAL_1.mov ;·) We've started lots of these projects over the years. This rare creature is one that's finally found its way out of the studio.

Fired Up
Fired Up
Fired Up is a short animated film that depicts the origin story of President Obama’s famed “Fired up, ready to go” chant. On a rainy day in June of 2007, President Obama found himself speaking to a subdued crowd in the tiny town of Greenwood, SC. He was exhausted, soaking wet, and beginning to doubt the whole campaign when a voice called out from the back, “Fired up, ready to go!”. The chant, started by one unassuming woman in a church hat, transformed the audience and went on to become a rallying cry in every corner of America. With the audio of President Obama’s speech as the soundtrack, the film combines original animation by 12 artists from around the world. Animation directors (in order of appearance): Emily Eckstein & Ege Alper, Alex Silver, Lynn Tomlinson, Jovanna Tosello, The Duke & The Duck, Amy Lee Ketchum, Juan Camilo Gonzalez, Musa Brooker, Miguel Jiron, Sara Spink, Lou Morton, and Daniela Sherer.

BLOOMS 2: Strobe Animated Sculptures Invented by John Edmark
BLOOMS 2: Strobe Animated Sculptures Invented by John Edmark
Blooms are 3D printed sculptures designed to animate when spun under a strobe light. Unlike a 3D zoetrope, which animates a sequence of small changes to objects, a bloom animates as a single self-contained sculpture. The bloom’s animation effect is achieved by progressive rotations of the golden ratio, phi (ϕ), the same ratio that nature employs to generate the spiral patterns we see in pinecones and sunflowers. The rotational speed and strobe rate of the bloom are synchronized so that one flash occurs every time the bloom turns 137.5º (the angular version of phi).* Each bloom’s particular form and behavior is determined by a unique parametric seed I call a phi-nome (/fī nōm/). -John Edmark John Edmark is an artist, designer, and inventor. He teaches at Stanford University.

Chrysopoeia
In alchemy, the term chrysopoeia (Greek) means transmutation into gold. All scenes were filmed with a Canon 5D and a 100mm macro lens. The score was composed and played by Nikolai von Sallwitz, using real instruments and tools such as cello, bowed strings, prepared piano, guitar, flutes, filtered springs, woods and hardware FX such as analog distortion. Chrysopoeia is part of Sonic Materia project series initiated by Nikolai von Sallwitz that is interpreted by various visual artists, graphic- and motion designers. It is about more space for pure visions and experiments likewise interaction and networking with futurebrains of design. http://ift.tt/2jjThT3 Title: Chrysopoeia I Directed & Produced: Susi Sie I Music & Sound Design: Nikolai von Sallwitz www.vonsallwitz.com www.susisie.de http://ift.tt/2dZ28na

Alan Williams Metal Artist | Creatures of the Deep
Alan Williams Metal Artist | Creatures of the Deep
Alan Williams: Creatures of the Deep offers an insight into the mind and work of the immensely talented Brighton sculptor Alan Williams, who turns scrap metal into amazing animal figures. Looking into his dark influences and childhood, this biopic explores Alan's practice, presenting the work of a true artist who holds “great talent, imagination and humility”. Alan Williams | http://ift.tt/2jeShwM Director - Ben Cox | http://ift.tt/2j4sIS9 Music - MOUNT BANK [Sam Organ] | http://ift.tt/1Cdvy8s Alan’s creative practice began in his childhood, creating fantastical hybrid creatures using old toys and a tube of glue. Currently entering his 14thth year of practice, Alan’s passion is making animals and creatures from mostly found and recycled metal; transforming recognisable every day objects into beautifully detailed, sculptural artworks. His unique hand crafted works imaginatively reference nature; animals, plants, textures, form and movement. Commissions include sculpture, architectural installations, furniture and many of his public artworks are on display in locations throughout Sussex and the UK. Ben Cox - Director "This film is the result of the wanting to create a passion project based around a local Brighton artist. The resulting film has surpassed all my original expectations both in the final product and the experience I had in making it. Working with Alan over the 6 months has been a wonderful experience and I have been exposed to an artist of great talent, imagination and humility. The project has been a wonderful collaboration, with Alan putting a lot of trust and faith in me as a filmmaker and I enjoyed every second of it".
The Problem of the Wilderness
The Problem of the Wilderness
I went to Alaska for New Year with my friend Dan; we spent a week travelling North from Anchorage by rail, 4x4 & light aircraft. I took along my A7SII for the trip. Towards the end of 2016 I desired a trip disconnected from technology & work, somewhere 'into the wild' that I could disconnect somewhat from life in London. After our Tens (http://tens.co) campaign shoot in Mexico in December, I headed North to Vancouver and spent Christmas snowboarding. Alaska looked like the most logical stop after that for a week or so in the wilderness. The more (little) I researched and booked, I realised I should probably take a camera with me, but didn't want to be inconvenienced by all the gear I usually travel with (http://ift.tt/2joruy8). The verse is from a book I found in our cabin (http://ift.tt/2jcmG1k) that really resonated with the journey. Marshall was an environmental activist who wrote extensively about Alaska in the early 20th Century. Photos from the trip: http://ift.tt/2joubjm --- The Problem of the Wilderness - Bob Marshall, 1930 It is well to reflect that the wilderness furnishes perhaps the best opportunity for pure esthetic enjoyment. This requires that beauty be observed as a unity, and that for the brief duration of any pure esthetic experience the cognition of the observed object must completely fill the spectator’s cosmos. There can be no extraneous thoughts—no question about the creator of the phenomenon, its structure, what it resembles or what vanity in the beholder it gratifies. “The purely esthetic observer has for the moment forgotten his own soul”, he has only one sensation left and that is exquisiteness. In the wilderness, with its entire freedom from the manifestations of human will, that perfect objectivity which is essential for pure esthetic rapture can probably be achieved more readily than among any other forms of beauty. --- http://getdeluxe.co @getdeluxe

The Rhino Guardians
In 2016 I travelled to South Africa to visit The Black Mambas - the worlds first all female anti-poaching unit operating in the Balule Game Reserve in South Africa. Coming from disadvantaged communities and breaking strong patriarchal tradition, these courageous women focus on eliminating illegal wildlife trade through conservation, education and the protection of wildlife, helping to ensure the long term survival of threatened and endangered species in the area. Each day they patrol up to 20km, unarmed, looking for poachers, wire-snares, and break-ins along the fence line. Their lives are at constant risk from poachers and the dangerous wildlife they protect. It is their belief that the war on poaching will not be won with guns and bullets, but through education within their local communities.

Quelqu'un d'extraordinaire (An Extraordinary Person) by Monia Chokri
Sarah, a beautiful and intelligent 30-year-old, has everything to succeed. But her fear of banality keeps her in a permanent state of inertia. One day, she wakes up in an unknown suburban house after a complete blackout. Helpless, she calls her friend Catherine and lands, against her will, in a bachelorette party with old acquaintances. As the night unfolds and the tension builds, Sarah's pursuit of authenticity leads to a merciless climax where secrets are unveiled, and friendships, destroyed.

Zac Easter knew what was happening to him. He knew why. And he knew that it was only going to get worse. So he decided to write it all down — to let the world know what football had done to him, what he'd done to his body and his brain for the game he loved. And then he shot himself.

KORUA Shapes - YEARNING FOR TURNING Vol. 4 - Still Turning
Here it is! We're excited to finally present STILL TURNING. The help and support of friends is crucial in a project like KORUA Shapes. As a thank you, we organized a weekend camping adventure on a mountain pass that lies only minutes from some of Europe's best resorts. Most guys showed up in camper vans, others simply planned to crash in the front seat of their cars. The idea was to spend some quality time in good company, enjoy a couple of beers, test out some new shapes and have as much fun as possible, all while filming a new edit along the way. Using the excuse of having to gather more footage, we ended up doing several more of these trips throughout the spring. Featuring: Nicholas Wolken, Gabriele Torriani, Pepe Regazzi, Thomas Stöckli, Aaron Schwartz, Raphael Rocha, Ivo Florin, Kuno Egli, Filip Zuan, Vitus Zenz, Stephan Maurer, Armando Guetg, Jerry Niedermeier, Florian Krummenacher & Runar Péter Hjörleifsson Filming & Editing: Stephan Maurer Additional Filming: Aaron Schwartz & Romano Thomann Graphics: Aaron Schwartz Music Supervisor: Gabriele Minelli Music: "DERNIÈRE NUIT" by MESSAGE Written and performed by Didier Brutus and Olivier Balet http://ift.tt/2ifTTIc http://ift.tt/1gc02k0 www.koruashapes.com

Major Lazer and Showtek "Believer"
Major Lazer and Showtek "Believer"
The concept of the video was inspired by the images of Omran Daqneesh, the Syrian boy covered in dust in the ambulance after his house was hit by a bomb. Like everyone in the world I was heartbroken by that image but I also saw a glimmer of hope. As dark as the subject matter is the point of our "Believer" video was to capture the resilience of youth and the hope displayed by communities coming together to save victims from the rubble. If it wasn't for the support from Sjoerd of Showtek and guidance from Diplo and his creative director Sara, this video would not have turned out as emotionally powerful as it has.They supported us going to the Middle East, shooting with all local cast, crew and keeping it as authentic as possible. There were countless obstacles that go along with shooting in an unfamiliar country but with the help of the local film community we got through them all and created something special in the process.

How Do You Edit an Animated Film?
Here's a question you may never have thought about before: what does an animation editor actually do? If scenes are just written and then animated, is their role any more than just connecting clips together? On the contrary, the role of an animation editor is actually one of the most important roles in shaping the film being made. Let's dive in and explore the job. For educational purposes only.

Art is Theft
Art is Theft
Art is Theft is a personal project I've been planning for a long time. Creation is not inspired by one man, woman or one thing. We are influenced by our daily fair, diverse artists etc. I have admired various influential artists in my life, such as Picasso, Dali and Warhol. With this film, I attempted to convey an approach to the creative process and express how all artists, at any level, "steal" the art and the very soul of other artists, while forming their "original" pieces. The one and only Ambrose Yu did a wonderful work in the sound design of this piece. I strongly recommend listening to this film while wearing headphones. Thank you.

OUTLINES
OUTLINES
TUNDRA’s newest immersive experience is a large scale laser-beams installation which went unseen to public due to cancellation of Outline Festival in Moscow where it was initially planned to be exhibited. As it was specially created for this festival, we decided to name it OUTLINES. This word has a strong meaning in Russian representing the idea of stepping out of an initial grid and rising above the fundamentals by trespassing your imaginary boundaries. Special thanks to Alexander Us & Sila Sveta for inviting us to take part in Outline festival 2016. And thanks to everyone who helped us: Dmirtry Znamensky, Isabelle Rousset, Viktor Kudryashov, Maxim Harin, Roman Pechorin, Kapitolina Tcvetkova-Plotnikova, Semyon Zlotsky. A custom tunnel iteration of this installation will be premiered and first shown to public at Day For Night festival in Houston, Texas, from December 16th to 18th. www.dayfornight.io facebook.com/tunddra www.wearetundra.com Behance - http://ift.tt/2gXtxI5

We came up with an idea to use the perspective of a microscope/macro-lens to present the four seasons in our human world. All editing materials are from the previous microscope/macro footages and some unused shots, including footages from color paint experiments and those of chemical reactions.

Synopsis Sophie lives alone with her mother on a desolate farm in the middle of nowhere. A place that hides a secret far worse than she could have imagined. Director Statement : We both come from a childhood marked by much loneliness, where the security of one's parents was vital. The thing that scared the most was the thought that once parents would die, or disappear, the security would be crushed, or that it was only an illusion. With "Reset", we want to portray this particular fear a child would feel when the worst thinkable becomes a reality.

DIVERSION
DIVERSION
DIVERSION-saigonggan 사이공간 _ more details & workflow http://ift.tt/2i1Qj4y Constantly feeling rushed. Habitually saying ‘too busy’ or ‘quickly’. Always apprehensive that things might not be done in time. The desire to act quickly is basically a matter of speed. Elevation of speed requires reduction of time. The most economical way for this formula is a straight line. Connecting two points; starting and ending point, without a gap. People, consumed by the aim to reach the ending point, proceed rectilinearly. The space in between is merely a path leading to the ending point, and nothing more. This interspace has been omitted due to the rectilinear motion between the two points. Could people be liberated from the obsession of unidirectional movement and speed, if a new perspective is formed by visually converting the direction of spaces with intense unidirectional propensity? Walls, doors and passageways that can involve the audience are installed in the interaction version. An image is projected onto the wall. It starts from the z-axis, consistent with the direction of the person advancing through the door. The image is composed of one-point perspective spaces and situations with intense unidirectional propensity. When the person proceeds in the intended direction, the sensor perceives the movement and the projected image revolves to the x-axis perspective. The image has a flat layout, lacking space perception. With the movement of people as the variable, the image portrays different spaces revolving on their axises. In the animation version, symbolizes the interspace. Generally, fish are recognized from its profiles. It is more natural to visualize fish moving in the intersectional direction of people’s line of sight. While we constantly move rectilinearly, the space from the side; the interspace, could inhabit naturally travelling sideways. 늘 쫓기는 마음이다. ‘바쁘다’,’빨리빨리`를 입에 달고 산다. 제시간에 다 해내지 못할까 봐 불안하다. 빨리하고 싶은 마음은 결국 속도에 관한 문제다. 물리적인 속도를 높이기 위해선 소요시간을 줄여야 한다. 이 공식에서 가장 경제적인 동선은 직선이다. 출발점과 도착점, 두 점 사이를 막힘없이 이어야 한다. 사람들은 움직이는 동안 도착점에 이르러야 한다는 생각만으로 직선 운동을 하고 있다. 사이의 공간들은 도착점으로 가는 길, 그 이상 이하도 아니다. 이 사이공간은 출발점과 도착점 사이의 직선운동에 의해 생략되어 버린 지점이다. 사람들의 일방향성이 강하게 나타나는 물리적 공간들이 향하고 있는 방향에 시각적 변형을 일으켜 새로운 지점을 만들 수 있다면 사람들의 일방향적인 움직임과 속도에 대한 강박에서 벗어날 수 있지 않을까? 인터렉션 버전에선 사람들이 실제로 이동할 수 있는 벽, 문, 통로를 설치한다. 벽면에 프로젝터를 이용하여 영상을 투사한다. 처음에는 문을 이용하는 사람의 이동방향과 같은 z축의 영상이 나온다. 이때 영상에선 일방향성이 강하게 느껴지는 일소실점 공간과 상황을 보여준다. 사람이 의도한 방향으로 진행하면 이를 센서로 감지하여 벽면에 투사되고 있던 영상 속 공간은 x축으로 회전한다. 이때 영상은 공간감이 거의 느껴지지 않는 평면적인 레이아웃으로 구성한다. 사람의 이동이 변수가 되어 축이 회전하는 다양한 공간들이 연출된다. 애니메이션 버전에서 볼 수 있는 물고기 인간들은 사이공간을 상징한다. 일반적으로 사람들은 물고기를 옆면의 모습으로 파악한다. 물고기는 사람의 시선 방향과 교차하여 움직이는 것이 더 자연스러운 셈이다. 우리가 빠르게 직선운동을 하는 동안, 옆면의 공간- 사이공간에서는 옆으로 움직이는 것이 더 당연한 물고기 인간들이 살고 있을지도 모른다. _ (c)HYUNMINI.COM HIVCD GRADUATION PROJECT

The Weight of Gravity
The Weight of Gravity
When it was released in 2013, Gravity was that rare case of a movie that was (generally) well received by public, critics and film scholars alike. Critics even wielded lofty terms such as "avant-garde" and famous film scholars described it as an "experimental film". High and nearly unanimous praise indeed. But Gravity is also a movie of contradictions. It features state-of-the-art special effects that push the boundaries of film technology. Yet this high tech extravaganza also evokes early cinematic technology and experience. It is a film that focuses on bodily experience, taking us on a breathless ride with the (heavily breathing) Sandra Bullock. Yet in other ways this film denounces the human body and its autonomy. Several years have passed since Gravity blasted off in cinemas, so maybe this is a good time to take another look at the movie and at what makes it remarkable. What is its importance in film (and even art) history? Did it herald a new way of filmmaking or did it harken back to earlier episodes of this art form? Those are the questions this video essay tries to address, along the way connecting Cuarón's movie to abstract expressionist painting and computer chess.

How Do I Explain America to My Black Son?
How Do I Explain America to My Black Son?
Atlantic writer Vann R. Newkirk is about to be a father, and he’s nervous. America’s history of racial violence is something that every citizen inherits, but the consequences for black Americans remain acute. “One day I’m gonna look that boy in the eye and have to explain the same thing my father did to me, and his grandfather to him: This is who we are,” he says in this film. “This is the same America that killed Emmett Till, and the same place that gave us Jim Crow.” Now, it’s the country that elected Donald Trump to the presidency. In this animation, Newkirk reflects on his own childhood in the South and the lesson’s he’ll try to impart to his son. This has been adapted from Newkirk’s Atlantic essay, “This Is Who We Are.”

Song by Tony Anderson: “The Way Home" (Licensed through The Music Bed: http://ift.tt/1utaT9A) Follow me: http://ift.tt/HQz2lJ / http://www.twitter.com/mikeolbinski / http://ift.tt/2cOYIHr / http://ift.tt/2cP05G6 For quite a few years now I've been wanting to do something different with my time-lapse films. I love color. Storms are full of color. The blues, the greens, the warm oranges and reds at sunset. The colors are sometimes what make a simple storm into something extra special. But black and white speaks to my soul. I love it. There is something when you remove the color that lets you truly see the textures, movement and emotion of a storm. And then you hear a song. I had asked my buddy Jay Worsley (http://ift.tt/1p7SHri) if he had heard anything lately that might rock for a black and white storm film, and he linked me to Tony Anderson's "The Way Home." The moment I heard it, I knew that was the song. My recent films have a frantic pace to them and people occasionally tell me they'd love to see the footage in a much slower speed. I already knew that going with the monochrome style sorta demanded something more solemn and poetic...and the song was perfect for that. I also went with a much wider aspect ratio than I've ever done before. I feel like it actually feels like it brings you in closer to the action, almost like you were standing right there with me. I held myself back for a long time in doing this project because I wasn't very knowledgable about using tools like Premiere Pro to color grade footage, and all I thought was that I'd have to re-render all my clips as black and white before doing the film. And that's a lot of work. But the past few years have brought me tons of experience in Premiere Pro, plus help from my buddy Jay, and I figured out how to do it all there and without a ton of effort. The film is made up of some of my favorite clips from the past few years. A mix of the monsoon and supercell plains chasing. I'm so inspired by the songs I choose for these videos. Kerry Muzzey, Tony Anderson. Their songs are so powerful and moving and the stories they tell themselves are amazing. I went with clips that felt right with each beat of the song and while I usually try to tell a story with these films, I mostly decided to let the music be that here. Thanks to Tony Anderson for such an incredible piece of music, and to Jay for pointing it out to me. And also to my friend and fellow time-lapser, Brian Miner (see him on Vimeo: http://ift.tt/2hMheCJ), who did some B&W work this past fall and reminded me of what I've wanted to do for so long now. I hope you enjoy this! The creative juices were flowing and I also have some serious withdrawals from chasing storms. I HAD to work on something to hold me over until spring gets here. Only around four months to go before I hit the road to chase supercells and tornadoes in April, May and June! I have a couple of tornado chasing tours going this spring, if you are interested in checking those out, here you go: http://ift.tt/2iJZ95e ------- Captured with a Canon 5DSR, 5D3, 11-24mm, 16-35, 35mm, 50mm and 135mm.
