“The Last Image: cinematic rehearsals on the virtual topos”
The
experimental
film The
Last Image addresses a performative
potential of contemporary image-circulation
with the help of the tools of Virtual Production. Physical and
virtual cameras, trackers and chromakey, projections and real-time
compositing are the driving elements of the piece. The usual
applications of VR are overtaken and expanded by linking a physical
stage with digital scenographies via gaming and streaming
infrastructures. In doing so the project
rewrites
a story of a character who, in her role as a private detective,
chases the personified idea of an ominous capitalist in an utopian
future world.
