glɑs / Glass

The film "glas" is the last piece of my collaborative work with glass artist Jeremy Wintrebert.
We started in 2010 with a first project called "cloud" and then collaborated on 2 other short films and a feature documentary called "Heart of glass" released in 2016. This film was like closing the loop for me.
I wanted to do it to pay tribute to the material itself.
Letting the craftsman fade behind the fusion, the film invites to a hypnotic journey in the heart of its incandescence.
They were "the" meeting that changed my life, they accompanied me for six years in a most incredible adventure in the heart of creation.
In this film, the captivating voice of Clélia Vega states the characteristics of the glass while the images illustrate the key stages of the work of the glassmaker. The film is accompanied by a sound creation of CYESM inspired by Stanley Kubrick 2001.
Le film "glas" est la dernière pièce de mon travail collaboratif avec l'artiste verrier Jeremy Wintrebert.
Nous avions commencé en 2010 avec un premier projet qui s'appelait "cloud" et avons ensuite collaboré sur 2 autres courts-métrages et un long-métrage documentaire qui s'intitule "Heart of glass" sorti en salle en 2016. Ce film était comme boucler la boucle pour moi.
Je voulais le faire pour rendre hommage à la matière elle-même.
Laissant l'artisan s'effacer derrière la fusion, le film invite à un voyage hypnotique au coeur de son incandescence.
Ils furent "la" rencontre qui a changé ma vie, ils m'ont accompagné pendant six ans dans une aventure la plus incroyable qui soit au coeur de la création.
Dans ce film, la voix envoutante de Clélia Véga énonce les caractéristiques du verre alors que les images illustrent les étapes clés du travail du verrier. Le film est accompagné d'une création sonore de CYESM inspirée par 2001 de Stanley Kubrick.

Beautifully portrayed. Sublime camera work. Particularly sophisticated image editing. Sparkling colors. Glassblower poetry in images. It remains incomprehensible that pulp videos on CZcams are well viewed and that the real art of capturing and displaying images such as this video has hardly been viewed. Shame and very unfortunate. I certainly enjoyed it very much and watched it with great admiration. Every time I see glass blowers working I am blown away. Even after many years of seeing this beautiful craft and recording it on video for my CZcams channel, I can be enchanted every time by the magic of the hot glass and the skills of the glassblowers. I just can't get enough of hot glass. Glass blowing deserves more publicity and attention for this wonderfully beautiful craft. Thanks for sharing.
