SPACE JOURNEY 2001

 IS LIKE INTERNAL MIGRATION OF MIND

vol. 2

Many words have beed said about Space Odyssey 2001 already.

Many enthusiastic and critic reviews as well. 

Many interpretations of one art.

But whatever you think this movie is about, it brings us closer to the unknown. 
And what is the unknown? The other dimension? Projections of our minds? 
Our alter egos somewhere in the Universe? Dreams? Death? 
Don't know, but every time we watch it - we can find a new interpretation. Which is great.

But for sure, this brilliant Kubrick's movie is about a MYSTERY. 

And the mystery is not a border, nor barrier. It gives us more options to interpret.

And therefore it keeps us being so fascinated about it!

MADNESS TAKES COURAGE

Can you imagine how it would be to have limitless power as a child? 

With no rules? 

You could do whatever you want, go to school or not, eat what you like etc.?
Seems ridiculously? 

Lars von Trier, a great Danish director, was growing up in that kind of environment. He was allowed to do whatever he wanted, because of his mother who gave him this absolute power. But she also gave him a tremendous responsibility for his decisions, which was pretty too much for a kid, because children usually need an authority to follow. 

Maybe that's why Lars von Trier's movies are madness? 

But this kind of madness takes courage. 

Lars von Trier seems not to identify with any rules, which is obviously useful for art, but might be tough for him as a human being. And finally, maybe this is why most of us think while watching his movies: "Gosh, I wouldn't have even thought this is possible". 

MOVIES = PEOPLE. PEOPLE = EMOTIONS.

One of the greatest film directors ever - Ingmar Bergman - put emotions on the top. Psychology of relationships is the most important theme of all of his movies, 
which we can see on the frames below). 

 Watching Bergman's movies is like watching them with heart. When we watch them, we forget about the scenery, costumes, about the actors, even about the story. 
But we remember the emotions. 

And they stay within us for a long time...

THE UNIVERSE STARTS FROM THE MOVEMENT

Movement is the phenomenon of cinematography, the moving pictures.

Movies are about emotions, but we can't literally see them. They're invisible.
And this is just great about the art of filming.

Pictures below - with those amazing dance moves - were inspiration of today's blog.
Aren't they moving?

VISUAL FEAST 

The greatest inspiration is hunger.
Hunger of beauty... hunger of life... hunger of great moments.

Inspiration is always art. Because it is about moments.

This time we share the great moments in these beautiful photography of Annie Leibovitz, who is a master of finding the "right" moments and the visual beauty.
And perhaps that's why her works are so alive.

THERE IS NO DILEMMA

Great idea how you can use your backyard!

WE LOVE OUR JOB!

Why do we love our job? Because it's UNIQUE. 

Although we do things that are repetitive, 

we always do it in a different way. (Well, at least we try :))

Filming is like everyday walk: 

you go the same way, but you see different things: 

meet different people, hear different voices,

each day the grass is a little bit higher, 

sometimes it's sunny, sometimes it's not. And it all effect us, 
so everyday we think different. And everyday is fantastic.  

Below we share amazing artworks by Escher, 
because they are the best illustration of our perspective when we think about filming:  
doing repetitive things, our world is still fantastic.
