it's a machine, it's objective

I got back into vidding and actually finished a video this morning. I still have an aspect ratio problem to fix and I think I won't post the vid before I have another one done, probably a Buffy one. I've had fun making it and tried to make it look a little artistic so it's an experimental video. And it's pretty short, about two minutes.

In the meantime, here's a very short film I made. It's not really a short film since a short film is supposed to be at least 8 minutes. This one is not even two seconds. Watch it on my Imeem Profile. It's dumb.

Oh and I met Michel Gondry, director of Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind about two weeks ago. It was great. I went with a friend who pretty much shares my passion for film making and pop art/new wave movie directors. She let me do the annoying work which consisted in waiting in line for about an hour and a half in order to have seats in the conference room. It was worth it, though! I got to seat at the second row, about two meters from him. He spoke a lot about The Science Of Sleep, which is a movie I highly recommend. It's a very sweet movie and wonderfully done. I think it captures perfectly the mood of young people living in Paris nowadays. After the interview ended, a little séance de dédicace was set up. My friend got her DVD signed and left without saying a word to Mimi Gogo (the nickname we gave him, altough I tend to call him Mich), she wanted to hug him but was afraid to ask. Then after I came to the table and he signed my region 1 dvd, and I asked him if I could shake his hand, which I did after he said "Bien sûr! (=of course)". I don't really know if I sounded pathetic at that moment. Anyway so I ended up buying the region 2 dvd because it has all that great bonus features and a little comic book. The thing that bothered me most is that the bodyguards (they weren't bodyguards, more like planners wearing suits) wouldn't let us take pictures of him.
