Substop. A short film about a guy with a pen.

March 21, 2010 in Animation & Film

“An average person spends 2.6 minutes per hour / 62 minutes per day / 5 years of life waiting for things.” – those are the opening words of the synopsis for this 1-minute short film. Written and directed by the Bosnian / Vietnamese duo Denis Leo Hegic and Thuan Te and filmed with the always beautiful visuals of a super 8 camera.

substop_short_film

It is a simple, modest film – a LITTLE film about a guy waiting for a bus in a typical London industrial neighborhood. But it tickles our minds and questions our own perceptions of time.

The change of the movie speed (first 30 seconds reserved for very long and slow shots followed by a 30 seconds action sequence) stands also for the change of the main character: the transformation from a silent, insecure nerd into a wild and creative artist.

The title “Substop” suggests that all this could be happening just in his head – as a subconscious process, but that is not a primary issue, since the message of this little film is: “As long as you are listening to the silent ideas in your head” there is no such time as wasted time.

ErmOne ‘picture of graffiti’

February 24, 2010 in Graffiti

I’m an English writer currently living and working in Paris. I’ve been writing my names on things since 1991, and still enjoy it just as much as I did then.

I enjoy exploring disused or forgotten places and working in them, and the city of Paris is a good fit in that respect. Every time I paint in the city I meet people and discover new places. For me, Paris has one of the best graffiti scenes I’ve experienced. There’s alot of raw bombing which is very inspirational for letter style.

I sketch quite often but I like to freestyle my pieces as I prefer the end result doing it this way. The moment of standing back from a finished piece and feeling you’ve just created the best one you’ve
done to date, keeps me coming back for more.

I’ve been producing artwork on canvas for around 2 years. I want to capture the feeling and movement of graffiti without producing a traditional piece, or ‘picture of graffiti’ on canvas. Being dramatic with colour and shape without being clichéd. I had my first show last year, at the Soup Gallery in Cornwall, England, and it had a great response. I enjoyed it very much and would like to do something bigger and better for 2010.
