Chel White Films Available

Another Portland filmmaker made his way into the journal recently. Chel White’s (JSF, Vol.5) film “Dirt” helps, um, ground the volume in solid (but fun) experimental territory. But his other work is amazing, as well, and can now be found in a dvd collection. Go HERE to explore his website and HERE to acquire the collection.

Also of interest is Chel’s video for Thom Yorke’s new song “Harrowdown Hill.” It’s a marvelous combination of animation, documentary footage, and photographic effects. You can watch it HERE. For some making-of info., be sure to read a description of their “Smallgantics” technique.
