Attraverso Lo Schermo45 – SPREE e DEADSTREAM: la diretta streaming come artificio narrativoUno dei travestimenti più grandiosi del found footage è quello della falsa diretta, che spesso ha anche implicazioni satiriche riferite al mondo degli streamer.
In questa puntata senza spoiler maggiori, parlo di questa tecnica particolarissima studiando i casi dei film Spree di Eugene Kotlyarenko (2020) e Deadstream di Joseph e Vanessa Winter (2022).

Tea with sgS04E19 Eugene Kotlyarenko, Lea Rose Sebastianis, Nate Wilson, Morgan KrantzEugene Kotlyarenko, Lea Rose Sebastianis, Nate Wilson, Morgan Krantz collaborated to create The Straightball, which we’ll show on Thursday February 16 @reunion. This is like a film school episode in a way, and also kinda heartwarming friendship tale. Eugene had a retrospective in Toronto, and Nate and Lea tell us of the vibrant film community who came out. That turned into hangs, and eventually collaboration. It’s a cool walk through of how things can come together. Take notes, do it yourself!! @madabouteug @brainbarf_for_jamstown @morgankrantz @topsecretbadboy https://reunion2162023.splashthat.com

Return to FormCinema of the 1930s, w/ Eugene KotlyarenkoThe arrival of sound opened a proverbial can of worms in the mute halls of cinema. For ten furious years (1930-1940), the ‘talkie’ would make and break itself again and again. The names are in the history books: Lang, Clair, Lubitsch, Dreyer, Mamoulian, Berkely, Vigo, Mizoguchi, von Sternberg, Hawks, Ford. Etc! But over these same years, cinema would begin to ossify – “where the experiments of 1930 became the shortcuts of 1939”. That’s Eugene Kotlyarenko, speaking in this episode – because he joined us for this episode; clearing a path through the whisper-singsong-chatter-belly laugh-screeching of the decade that made cinema cinema.2022-11-081h 12
