GMU:Performance Platform Introduction/Joshua Reiher

Hey my name is Joshua. I´m studying Media Art and Design at the Bauhaus University. For me, participating in the course "Performance Platform Introduction" means, working with a bunch of crazy stuff and solving problems in time. I really liked working together with all the other participants and Jörg & Max.

♦ "killing slowly" - a slow motion film ♦

♣ I wanted to show facial expressions combined with a small story and different perspectives. Overall, slow motion makes it much more impressive.

♣ I decided to use:

○ a slow motion camera
• some high frequent lights
○ a little bit of snow
• two actors
○ a piece of molton, confetti and propably a toy gun

♣ First of all I had to think of an idea, write a script & moodboard, as hiring some people for the record.

After some test shots earlier, we started filming with nightfall a few weeks later. There were some problems, managing the cables, cooling the lights and some software issues.

♣ In the end, I got a smooth slow motion film and a nice composition of wild western impressions.
