EARLY EXPERIMENTAL FILMS
Presenting five of my avant-garde filmmaking creations shot
on 16 mm and super 8 film.
In
ENCOUNTER, two medieval knights defend their world when aliens
arrive. This is one of my first "serious" forays into stop-motion
animation. The animation is a bit rough, but worth a look! Filmed
in 1982 in 16mm with stop-motion puppets.
MALL
MANIA offers an unusual perspective of the shopping experience in
the Los Angeles, California area. Filmed circa 1989 in a variety of
malls with time-lapse cinematography in the 16 mm format. Musical
accompaniment by Bjorn Lynne.
THE
WANDERER combines surrealism and athleticism in an astounding
upside-down record breaking journey. Filmed in iconic locations in
Madison, Wisconsin in 1981 on 16mm film. Featuring the incredible
acrobatic skills of Mark Daniel. Music by Holst and
Wagner.
MIRAGE is a dreamlike metaphysical journey using the unique
art form of dance-animation. A collaboration with Mark Daniel and
several other talented performers using the pixilation (people
animation) technique. Shot in 1982, with 16mm film. Music by Bjorn
Lynne.
PEOPLE PATTERNS utilizes time-lapse photography to portray
interesting events in Madison, Wisconsin. Most of the locations are
from the University of Wisconsin campus and downtown area. Shot
circa 1980 on Kodachrome super 8 film. Music by Bjorn
Lynne.
