TURN THE SOUND DOWN TO HALFWAY! haha

(I got a feeling it's gonna squash the picture, so bear in mind it should be seen on a widescreen format)

Film made for my installation, a blurry photo of it in its exhibition can be seen here: [link]

First DA film submission, so I hope it works!

So I'll explain it a little, my project seemed to follow this obsessive theme of falling over, all the beginning work involved was based on lots of photos of me falling and then I'd paint the photos, but casting them into a surreal situation. I then decided that it needed to go further and looked into filmmaking by people like Piplotti Rist and Bas Jan Ader.

I gave it the structure of it reaching to a climax where I just can't seem to stop falling and then at the end, I get up, giving the feeling that I finally managed to overcome it, only to fall down again.

I could tell you underlying themes and messages, but I prefer to tell people that there either aren't any or lie about what it means as I just want people to see it in their own way.

It's really interesting. The concept kind of reminds me of those famous school shootings (Columbine, Kent State, Virginia Tech...) what did you have in mind when you made it?
