Eine audiovisuelle Hommage an Ghost in the Shell. – Hommage an Ghost in the Shell? Geht schief. Sollte man denken. So wie ich. Und dann: Yeay!
..ich kopiere euch den ganzen Vimeo-Text hier rein; weil es geht, und ich gerade zu baff bin, um dazu was angemessenes zu sagen. Crowdfunding wär 'ne Idee, und ein 60Minüter. Ach, guckt euch auch unbedingt die Website mal an. Nach dem Text und dem Klick.
A respectful homage to Shirow Masamune’s manga and Mamoru Oshii’s seminal film “Ghost in the Shell”, this is a modernized direction that still tries to stays true to the original creator’s vision. What started as a photo tribute directed by Ash Thorp and Tim Tadder (photography), soon became a worldwide collaboration of more than 20 artists from around the world, with each and everyone coming together to help breath life into the project, resulting in the artistic interpretation you see below. For a film that was a comment on the uber-connected society of the future, Project 2501 ended up being itself an example of how this collaborative group of creatives are so connected ourselves. Many of us never met beyond the communications provided by the vast and infinite net, but still came together to make the ultimate tribute to “Ghost in the Shell”.
Everyone of us wanted the opportunity to pay homage to a ground-breaking film that gave us so much.
We sincerely hope you enjoy our effort to capture the energy and beauty of the original film’s title sequence.
