路上拾影 Silhouette

西村宜起 NISHIMURA Yoshiki|日本 Japan|2023|DCP|Colour|8 min

 

日本東北小鎮的早晨,導演總是帶著狗出門散步與蒐集影子。夏日,當陽光越加耀眼,影子便越加深沉。因醉心於小徑上的屋舍投影,將其轉描成為連續卷軸影像,而剪影的無數稜角,確確實實地為城市留下實像的記憶痕跡。

 

西村宜起:「我喜歡觀察我家周遭的路面投影,看它們隨時間變幻形體。我以安裝在iPad上的光學雷達(LiDAR)掃描街區,將屋舍、電杆、樹木及溫室花房在柏油路上的投影掃描下來;確切而言,是將道路表面的掃描資訊轉化為帶有影子質感的3D模型。將2D維度的平面剪影轉為3D空間,聽起來似乎有點怪異;但我發現這方法讓我得以將長路上的各式剪影,完整無縫地貼合為一完整圖像。這些剪影一旦被轉為3D模型,我便能更輕易地以攝影機進行拍攝。在掃描時,我手持iPad沿街而行,因光學雷達的偵測距離至多五公尺,使光區與暗區間的界線有了如同紙張撕邊的效果,不平整的邊緣反映了這些影子被掃描的過程。而片中聲音均於現場錄製,有居民閒談與夏日蟬鳴。」

 

西村宜起:「描繪真實的方式有許多種,以不同角度呈現真實就是我的創作主題。」

 

Director Nishimura, residing in Miharashi Hills Town, finds fascination in the shifting shadows cast upon its streets. Entranced by their ever-changing shapes, he observes how they intensify under the summer sun, creating a vivid contrast. Each silhouette holds unique qualities, seemingly containing the town's secrets.

 

‘The streets of Miharashi Hills Town were scanned by LiDAR which is a laser scanner installed on an iPad. What I scanned were the shadows of houses, poles, trees, and vinyl greenhouses cast on the asphalt-paved streets. More exactly, the surfaces of the streets were scanned, and the scanned data were transformed into 3D models with shadow textures. Scanning 2D flat shadows in 3D space sounds a bit strange, however, I found that it is a very practical way to make a seamless image of shadows cast on a long street. Once they became 3D models, it was easier for me to move a camera more freely on them. As I scanned the shadows, I walked along the side of a street, holding the iPad with my hands. LiDAR measures objects up to 5 metres ahead. That is the reason why the boundaries between the light and dark sections appear like torn edges of paper. Those jaggy edges show how the shadows were scanned. The sounds were recorded in the town: residents’ chatter and cicadas singing in summer.

 

‘There are many ways to describe realities. Showing the realities from a different perspective is the theme of my works.’ - NISHIMURA Yoshiki

夜行 Night Walk

孫求用 SOHN Kooyong|南韓 South Korea|2023|DCP|Colour|66 min

 

沉靜之間,詩的聲律翻動月光,水筆勾起絲絲涼風,視線從靛藍的夜色穿行而過。本片為無聲電影,導演將拍攝於首爾石劍亭村的影像,與朝鮮文人詩作、寫意插畫編織疊加,聯動觀者感知。隨場景蛻變的影像色階,如同山水畫串連畫幅的留白手法,將燈火暈染的巷弄、窗格和城郊水色,接合成夢一般的風景。

 

孫求用:「我家周邊的山色宜人,小溪淙淙,每到夜晚,山水將白天的喧囂復歸寧靜。一晚,我於深藍溪澗的冰涼岩石上,看見水面上的天空。浮月散發的靛藍光澤將我的五感染上顏色,我彷彿與天空、溪水和其間的沁涼空氣融為一體。自此,溪邊散步變得有如漫步在某人的夢裡。從山間吹來的和煦微風拂過髮際,而我等待著睡夢為其打斷。」

 

孫求用:「拍攝時,我花了很多力氣單獨錄製聲音,但在剪輯過程中,這些聲音卻令我困擾,我的感覺似乎變得遲鈍衰弱。有一天,我不小心關掉聲音,只看自己拍的影像、圖畫和文字,竟然更有靈感,後來我就把聲音拿掉了。」〈全州影展:專訪《夜行》導演孫求用〉,韓國雜誌《Cine21》網站(2023年4月)。

 

A landscape film comprised of nightscapes, drawings, and excerpts from poems by the literati of the Joseon Dynasty (1392-1910).

 

‘In my neighbourhood, the mountain is snug and the stream murmurs, every night lulling the vibrance of day into serenity. One night, crouching on a cold rock in the midst of the dark blue brook, I saw the sky in the water. The indigo gleam of the flowing moon dyed my senses and I became one with the sky and the water and the crisp air in between. Since then, taking a walk by the stream is like strolling in someone else's dream. The soft breeze from the mountain sways my hair gently, and I wait for my sleep to be broken.

 

‘I put a lot of effort into recording the sound separately during filming, but the sounds continued to be annoying during the editing process. The senses I felt seemed to be dulled and diminished. One day, I accidentally turned off the sound and only looked at the images, drawings, and writings I had taken, and I actually felt even more inspired. So I removed the sound later.’ - SOHN Kooyong

花火聲影 Light, Noise, Smoke, and Light, Noise, Smoke

西川智也 NISHIKAWA Tomonari|日本 Japan|2023|16mm|Colour|6 min

 

這是一部結構電影,以未留有光學聲軌的超16mm膠卷記錄夏日花火。影像在聲軌上轉化為音訊潛行。投放時,聲音必然先行於影像26格,於是導演以每26格為單位,交錯剪黏兩卷素材。音畫規律地真實錯位;感官連續地暫留巧合,你即將聽到的是——光束、噪音、花火,還有其他。

 

Fireworks filmed at a summer festival in Japan using a Super 16 camera captured images on the optical soundtrack area. In a 16mm projector, the photocell reading precedes the image projection by 26 frames. Footage from 2 rolls was cut into 26-frame shots, alternating between rolls to separate sound and visuals, creating a distinct rhythm in the film.
