Resonance film project

Resonance is the vision of SR Partners, a London-based motion graphics studio. It is a collaborative project in which over 30 independent visual and audio designers / studios are taking part. The aim was to explore the relationship between geometry and audio in unique ways.

The result is something varied, captivating and inspirational.

Shockwave-Sound.Com - Copyrights in Public Domain music and Classical music

I had a conversation with somebody a couple of days ago whereby I explained why, even though a composer passed away hundreds of years ago, they still had to get licensing sorted out for the 'recording' interpretation.

Then I found this article that really clears up the issue:

Latest Pjazza shoot

On June 5 the regular Pjazza fashion shoot team was back together, along with two lovely models, Orsika and Jovana.

The concept this time around was inspired by two sources... the theme was losely derived from a famous play by a certain Samuel Beckett and the aesthetic style was a reference to French New Wave cinema.

I called the story 'Waiting for Godard' and recently finished processing the final 10 images and delivered them to the happy editor.

The magazine comes out on June 26 with the Malta Independent on Sunday.

In the meantime, here are some behind-the-scenes pics.

Microbudget film

I recently read an article about microbudget filmmaking on the excellent website Filmmaker Magazine.

The piece was very pertinent to how I work and spoke, in part, to the aesthetics I aspire to and am drawn to.

I'm not one for written manifestos like the Dogma movement, but I do believe that microbudget filmmaking can be a choice and an ethos. It allows for a voice to be heard rather than be drowned by the big bucks and interfering execs.

Now more than ever, with the advent of affordable HD technology, desk top post-production and avenues of online promotion and (maybe soon) distribution, there is more of a reason -- and more of an avenue -- for independent filmmakers to get out there and create a sea change.

As I develop my project, Shadows, I have my eyes focusing more and more on this option of filmmaking with levels of creative freedom and democratic production we have maybe never seen before.
