WARNING: A LOT OF FLASHING IMAGES
Title: Battlestar
Album: When Machines Exceed Human Intelligence
Artist: Harmonic 313
Label: Warp
Duration: 3:10Sixty40 was approached by Harmonic 313 (aka Mark Pritchard) for his first ever film clip. Taking an entirely open brief, Sixty40
pioneered a variety of new techniques to complement Harmonic 313's superbly-crafted, bass heavy and crazy-ass electronica track "Battlestar".
The clip is shot stereoscopically (i.e. on 2 identical cameras separated in space to mimic 2 eyes) and uses a flicking technique
that was inspired by 2 frame animations of 3D photos. This technique not only creates a sense of depth in moving footage, but also
adds a definite intensity and alternative reality to each scene; appropriate as "Battlestar" follows the story of a deceivingly sized
binocular spaceship coming to Earth and leading an unsuspecting b-boy (Andy Uprock) highup onto a roof in the city in order to spawn.for more sixty40.com/battlestar.html
