‘CSD Berlin 2016’ – Karen Axelrad
The video was shot on July 23 at the Christopher Street Day Parade in Berlin. The images show a parade of people of various nationalities dressed in various ways. They dance and have fun. Really interesting street movie documenting a significant event. Well done!
‘Cheyenne Frontier Days’ – Oskinga
Video playful and very pleasant. Some children playing on a carousel and then visit a fair. The images are very colourful, and this effect makes the movie more playful. The music emphasises brightly this time of celebration. Wonderful mood!
‘Saturday Morning A Bee’ – Edith Meier
A bee alines gently on a flower and then on another. She sucks the pollen and flies away. The images follow one another accompanied by a sweet and nostalgic music. Wonderful choice of black and white and then, at the center, the color of the flower and the bee. Magnificent!
‘Victim of the Revolution’ – Tom
A television was abandoned in the trees in a garden. The image of this technological medium, expression of modern life, in the midst of unspoiled nature, it seems surreal. It stands out prominently as a contrast of two worlds: the human one dominated by machines and then the natural and “free”, perhaps. In just a few seconds that invite to think … Interesting!
‘Little Talks VI’ – Em Kachouro
This short movie shows a special knowledge and love for Matter app. It is part of a series in which Matter is always used with great craftsmanship. The most important aspect, however, is the sophisticated delicacy of this movie. Wonderful!
