Nuit Blanche

Antonio — Mon, 30 Apr 2012 00:23:29 +0000

Nuit Blanche explores a fleeting moment between two strangers, revealing their brief connection in a hyper real fantasy.

Slow motion is captured with such elegance. A very highly stylized, reinterpreted Cinema Noir with incredible special effects. One of my all time favorites from short-film genres.

Directed & Cinematography by: Arev Manoukian

Momentos

Momentos is a great short film directed by Nuno Rocha for LG Portugal. You are immediately sucked in with its look, sound design, camera movement and screen direction but most importantly, its wonderful touching story. It makes you reevaluate what’s important in your life.

The acting is simplistically great that makes this DSLR special…shot on Canon 7D.

Nuno Rocha is a promising emerging producer and director from Portugal. For 5 years, he attended the prestigious Instituto Politécnico do Porto and graduated with a BA in TCAV and where he wrote and directed his first short entitled “Berco de Pedra” (Stone Crib). This short film won various awards on the Portuguese film festival circuit.

TRI▲NGLE

German-born artist Robert Knoke knew his professional destiny from an early age. The artist’s father and grand father were both creatively active, and Knoke quickly followed in their footsteps, developing his own unique brand of illustrative portraiture.

Drawing might be Knoke’s art medium of choice, but the artist – dividing his time between New York, Paris and New York – has worked with video, painting and photo collages.

But no matter the art form, it seems that Knoke has a longstanding relationship with portraits. TRIANGLE video is just a sample of his great work done for this book ‘Black Material‘ which showcases Robert Knoke’s artwork with geometrical forms & organic movements.
