Village Noyé 2019
Village noyé (Drowned village) is an experimental animation film. It shows scenes of destruction, collapse, escape and drowning.The theme of this film « catastrophe » is a pretext to manipulate specific kinds of images and sounds. I played around with 3D softwares without any knowhow of the softwares in beforehand. The same way a kid would break some objects that he had patiently built, I tried to induce bugs, errors and accidents into the scenes and situations that I have drawn. The sequences of images generated by computer were then printed one by one, and reprinted, distorted and destroyed with an old photocopy machine. It is a question of transforming a clean and perfect imagery to an aesthetic of dirtyness, roughness and unpredactibility.The music was produced with a similar approach, while screening the film on an old cathodic television and capturing light signals from it. Those signals were then transformed randomly through a modular synthesiser.
