I know this guys supposedly did it all analog, but do you realize that you could recreate this almost exactly in Sony Vegas in like 2 hours? You could probably even top this. I mean, if you take out the cheezy age old gimmick of violence this "film" is nothing. Literally nothing. I really hope thatwhoever runs this page has the guts to leave these comments im making instead of erasing them like he does to anyone who isnt afraid to say the emperor is naked.
you are missing most of the work if you believe this to be just "chopped up", this is darkroom work, parts of the film are obscured and reshot onto a new piece of film. pieces of visual spill over onto the audio track.
this could NOT be done with vegas, unless you use photoshop and go into it frame by frame to obscure and combine frames.
You appear to have read nothing of tscherkassky's work or method and yet you have commented on the "nothing" ness of a film you CLEARLY don't understand.
"Skill without imagination is craftsmanship, which gives us many useful objects such as wickerwork baskets. Imagination without skill gives us modern art" - Tom Stoppard
How is this art different than any other art? Its just chopped up, which is what they do in every film when they want to make footage seem creepy or intense. All this dude did is chop it up more. Its hardly avante garde since it basically follows the standard format of even disney movies. The reason stuff like this sells is because its stylized. But its not any better or worse or more brilliant than just your average film if you break it down. People love to feel smart, thats why this sells.
I have his DVD "in the darkroom" of his contact print films, from the distribution company "index". He is an amazing film maker, its definitely worth the 20 or 30 bucks.
