Questo mese il pubblico può proiettare Derek e il suo mattone sulla rete Planet Classroom. This film is curated for the Planet Classroom Network by Kids First! Film Festival
Think Edgar Allen Poe meets Edward Gorey. Lee White’s Derek e il suo mattone is a very imaginative four minute film utilizing live action, animazione, and poetry to transport audiences to a world of witty storytelling. Derek is isolated and torn between the love of his pigeon and a beautiful damsel. What’s a hermit bachelor to do?
We highly recommend this acclaimed, corto, mixed media twisted fairytale.
Il Global Ricerca per l'Educazione is pleased to welcome Director Lee White.
sottovento, what sparked the creation of the storyline?
I love poetry. I love pigeons. Perfect. But I also love Edgar Allan Poe. Yet another P. And boredom. Boredom is a very useful tool in playing with the imagination. It’s not investigated enough. From boredom we push through to the land of the rich and free spirit.
What influenced the art style?
Loads of stuff! I enjoy seeing how things are put together. So a montage idea I felt suited the piece. All hand drawn and rudimental digital play. The back to basics concept.
Was this the only short film you made during the lockdown – what was that like?
This was the only short I made in the lockdown. I experimented with lots of ways of making (not only films). It was good for play and allowed my mind to exercise.
Would you ever consider making a sequel or a prequel to this short film to provide more background on the characters?
Può essere. It’s possible. I have written more poems since then in a similar key but have not yet got around to making them into shorts. I feel the next one should be bigger!
Thank you Lee!
C.M. Rubin and Lee White
