Changes in
perception, and being perceived.
We chose to make
this work in 3D, both as a technical exploration of
what stereoscopic cinema was capable of, and because we felt this would
embody the experience of interacting with a person in a way 2D cinema
is not capable of. We used the concept of someone who is aware of their
perception of the world changing and aware of those around them
perceiving them differently. The illusion of depth allows the viewer to
see the world as if it were real, to see the character actually
reaching out for your help or running away from you, to see the
character's world become chaotic and distorted, but keeps the viewer in
the position of a passive spectator, unable to interact with or help
the character. Shot on 16mm color
