My work on the film

I’ve been working forever on the post-production of this film by Astrid Askberger.
Since the film was recorded over 14 years, it uses video sources from easily 10 different cameras of many different kinds: from DV, HDV, h264 formats, even VHS. interlaced or not. It was a real challenge to give a unity to all those clips.

I did the colour correction with Davinci Resolve, fixed a lot of clips with After Effects. I did the graphics and designed the chapters titles animations.
I also did the poster (beside).

Light Leaks

The chapter titles are assemblages of light reflections, lens optical aberrations, and other natural glitches that come from prisms or so.
