CCTV Hotel Fire Bandana
February 24th, 2009
Not really sure why I made this but I needed to use up some left over Formusol and I’m always trying to squeeze detail out of processes that don’t cooperate. The images of this fire were very ‘affecting’. I put that in quotes. The whole building was just exploding in this spectacular fireball and the combination of Koolhaas and destructikation had something inevitable / irresistible to it. I hope Rem casts the charred remains in clear concrete.
The film took some hacking up as you can see but I had to work with my limitations on this one to not make the seams ruin it. It came out better with the seams.
