Oops, wrong composer.


Photography. Extended.


I am back from holidays, where I spent most of my days in the South of France and Italy. However, artists aren't really ever in holidays. I took the opportunity, being "elsewhere" to take pictures and make videos, as well as working on a few timelapses. Thirty thousand pictures later... Clair de Lune is born.



Clair de Lune, named after the piano piece by Debussy used in the video, is a five minutes long collection of some of the timelapses I shot this summer. You will find breathtaking landscapes evolving in a way a human cannot naturally witness, the earth rotating on itself, clouds forming and merging, lighting bolts firing... The video is available on youtube in a variety of sizes, including the great 2560x1440 resolution, which some 27" and 30" screens allow, that I strongly recommend you use if you have such monitors. The original video is actually even bigger than that, since all the pictures come from the 5D, which means I will also be able to make prints out of frames of the movie.

Technical points aside, I hope the movie will make you feel something. I find the topic to be quite universal: everyone can enjoy lying on the grass and contemplating the stars, slowly realizing how tiny we are in the universe. If anything, the distorted perspective of time here makes the feeling even more prominent. I welcome all feedback, and don't hesitate to share it with people you like :)


OUR FEATURE FILMS

I was involved in the making of a few short movies this year. You can watch most of them online. Click on the picture to get on the page where you can see them.


The thoughts of a man following his girlfriend in the subway. Can a relationship survive all truths? French subbed in English, about 2 minutes and half.


A fake making of documentary of the previous movie. A young team has 48 hours to make a 2 minute movie. They find out, nothing really goes according to plan when it comes to make a movie... In French, about two minutes.


A suspicious man drives around Paris with a passed out man on the backseat. Who is he running away from?
No dialogue, music by the Beatles. About five minutes and half.


An artist reflects on his inability to enjoy life in any other way than through art. Part of the ART TOTAL project, a multi-disciplinary art project about the relation between the artists and their art. In French (for now, subbing in English is coming), about ten minutes and half.


A young man is in love with a lamp. His friends, worried, try to bring him back to reality. During his journey, he will meet many people who will, one by one, change his life. In French (English subbing to come next month or so), about thirty minutes.


I hope you'll watch them, and tell me what you think! I haven't heard from most of you either, so update me! Likewise, dear new watchers (I got quite a lot recently), tell me who you are, where you come from, what you'd like to see from me, what's the weather like in Paris... Anything!


I also have a blog! Click on the picture to see it. I share awesome art stuff I find all around the internet :)


I love you all :)
