Showtime

Showtime from Obscura on Vimeo.
This project was created only using old photos and clips from movies. The whole film is 75 minutes long and starts in 1880 at the birth of moving images and moves through film history and ends in the 60s.
The man you see walking through some of the scenes is created from one of the earliest experiments with moving images.
The project was originally commissioned by danish band TV-2 to act as a slow moving backdrop for their live shows. Here is a look into some of the scenes - with another music track added.
