UWOL-Challenge nr 6: NIGHT
|
|
Denne videoen er tatt opp i Oslo:
Denne korte filmen viser nattopptak gjort innenfor Oslo by mer eller mindre. Jeg har satset på å bruke tilgjengelig lys som alltid finnes i en by nattestid. Scenene består egentlig av flere enkeltsekvenser og jeg har lekt meg litt med timelaps (hurtigkjøring av filmen) og litt spesielle overganger/panoreringer. Opptakene er gjort i løpet av et par sene kvelder.
Opptaket er gjort med Canon XLH1 HDV kamera + 20x HD objektiv. For mer info klikk

Dommerens kommentar:
"Art of the Night" by Per Johan
He had every subject perfectly in focus. His sense of
composing the images is top notch. His choice of music
helps set the mood. Technically this is the best video in this round, and a true
artwork.
For sheer cinematography, this was amazing, and I was really swept up in the
drama of his filming choices. I especially loved the slow fade from the
reflection to the building, an ethereal effect where the film became
surreal, and for the few seconds of transition I shared in his exploration
of the ghostly mirror- he really evoked the spooky atmosphere of an urban
night. This same feeling was echoed later in the dogs running out of
darkness in the park, where for an instant there was a sense of
anticipation, to discover what was approaching. It was full of amazing
moments, my favorite being the meeting of the real and statue dogs in the
beautifully lit fog. The film captured so many amazing scenes, and embodied
the beauty and mystery of the night. The music helped enhance the feeling of
a slightly off kilter but beautiful night atmosphere, so in that way for me
all the pieces tied together well into supporting the theme.
“The Art of Night” by Per Johan Naesje is my first runner-up - unquestionably the most technically and artistically superior video entered this round. Per masterfully demonstrates how to find and video different subjects at night with different lighting conditions, incorporating scenes involving different types of lighting. Each scene presented has been carefully considered and constructed to give a flawless rendition of the subject and lighting. The result is a series of truly stunning and powerful images that are nothing less than works of art flowing together to form a breathtaking whole.
Per visits various sites in the city of Oslo and turns on the magic. He explores his subject from different angles and different viewpoints. Lights of the city, moving car lights, reflections in water, buildings and statues receive the same masterful treatment and after he has done, nothing but a highly polished result is achieved. Per has an incredible ability to capture his subjects skillfully, from razor sharp, images to hazy images softened by the fog.
The scenes flow easily, with a variation in tempo and mood. The music is slow, heavy and almost depressing though, and I can’t help thinking that Per did himself a disservice in the choice of music, even if it does suit the heavy, solid architecture and grotesque statues. The mood is emphasized by the colours in this video that are predominantly browns, blacks, greys and red."
