A non-linear short film for the web, DVD and mobile devices.
- Meanwhile
Godard once said that a film must have a beginning, middle and an end but not necessarily in that order. Meanwhile explores new ways to detour from the well-trodden path of narrative by giving the viewer a choice at the end of each scene as to which direction in time they want to move in the story. The nine scenes in this screwball comedy can be seen in any order; each path revealing the intricate interconnectivity of the characters' follies, obsessions, and ambitions.Meanwhile is a non-linear cross-platform film. The three versions of the film include: an interactive web based version, a randomized DVD version and a 'Shuffle Film' version made for iPods and iPhones. The project was created during a residency at the CFC Media Lab in collaboration with David Clark, Chris Mendis and Shelley Simmons.View the project here:Press Coverage: - Images
