Sticks and Stones - Short Film

  • Sticks and Stones
    A short film about heartbreak
  • This was my end-of-year film whilst attending the Victorian College of the Arts in 2010. Via a montage of memories, the audience is transported along one man's life story, from his childhood to his early death. It is available for offline screening only - feel free to contact me - and below are a collection of stills from the final cut. It was shot entirely on a Canon 7D over the course of two sweltering days of Melbourne summer. The duration is seven minutes.

    Producer, Writer, Director, Editor, Sound Designer: Chris Cork
    Director of Photography: Zachary Picollo
    Gaffer / First Assistant Camera: Robert Chum Li
    First Assistant Camera: Mike Larsen

  • One scene involved a montage of obscured cultural images playing on a television screen. As you'll see below, this footage included the abstract framing of Krzysztof Kieslowski's Trois Couleurs: Rouge, Michael Winterbottom's 9 Songs, and Dave Gibbon's Dr Manhattan artwork - with the utmost reverence.
