A still is worth a thousand

This is the offline cut of a spot I shot for a fashion mag with Olive Tree Productions in Beirut.

It is entirely made with still shots that are edited together at around 3fps.
I used my Canon MK II to do that using RAW format to have more color range. I shot just over 8000 stills over a full day but used a portion of that in the final edit of course.

Again this is the offline version. Will hopefully upload the final color corrected version soon.

Generation Rewind

I edited this video to be featured during “Beirut Tout Court”, an event organized and hosted by Zoé productions as part of “Nhar Bi Salleh”.

I found a tape I shot in 2005 but had never seen since.
The label said: “March 14th”.

On that day 1 million Lebanese showed up at downtown Beirut to protest.

Put together, the footage turned out to be a beautiful portrait of a young generation that inherits the past and, inevitably, keeps repeating it.

Music track: “Gamma” (Original Mix) by Trentemoller & Buda - The Beatless Collection Vol. 1

The video was projected at Beirut Tout Court, hosted by Zoé productions in Lebanon in May 2009.
