There's, Nothing to Lose. There's Nothing to Prove
Often
times, when i need a creativity boost, I find myself indulging in Art House films. Films that run over the time it takes for my brain to lose interest, lets say a shameful 120min to short ones that before i think i get the gist of it, the credits roll. I seek out films that one would have to spend ages
scouring the artistic corners of the Internet for.
Now
I love music, I love fashion; I love movement in any possible art form. I enjoy
things that have a certain edge about them and out of the norm.I love it when two mediums collate. Now this may have been around for longer than i am aware of, but I started to watch fashion shorts when I was a student in film school, that's a good couple of years ago, whilst figuring out what I
draw inspiration from. I find that this video might not be educational, but
after an enjoyable Easter weekend with an unfathomable amount of chocolate
coated eggs, I wanted to show you something beautiful.
This
video, directed by Dominique Palombo and choreographed by Jermaine Browne for
the Rachel Roy spring collection called ‘Move’, which won best picture at the
2011 La Jolla fashion Film Festival. The message behind the short was to encourage shoppers to buy things that make you move, what a better way
to demonstrate this than with real, unique people? The film at times can be
dark, with dancers perfectly choreographed but with this puppet effect that
creates this eerie feel, but as you continue to watch, you will hopefully see
the visual masterpiece I see.
I
hope you enjoy this and feel free to comment or share any other videos you
might have with me.
