"Time travel, still images, a past, present and future and the aftermath of World War III. The tale of a man, a slave, sent back and forth, in and out of time, to find a solution to the world's fate. To replenish its decreasing stocks of food, medicine and energies, and in doing so, resulting in a perpetual memory of a lone female, life, death and past events that are recreated on an airports jetée."
I'm quite familiar with moving image and film however I'm not very confident with it and don't feel like it highlights photographic skills very well. After my attempts at creating a digital film for this project and them not going to plan, I wanted to find a way in which I could incorporate my still photography into a movie. La Jettee is a movie based entirely of film stills (not to be mistaken with stop-motion) and added voiceover and sound effects. The overall movie is a performance unlike something you have seen before. It encapsulated mood and emotion similarly to moving image with specific use of shots which highlight what the voiceover is talking about.
It is very important for the images to be interesting whilst have an accurate representation of what the voice over saying. This is to keep the audience interested as they stay on screen for quite a long time.
I would like to attempt to create a movie based around the idea's of La Jettee as I feel like with the correct voice over and imagery the movie could be quite powerful without being a documentary.
