Mass Media Time Machine
Problem
Create a filmic self-portrait, one that speaks to influences, ideas, and evolution of thoughts and ideas.
Solution
Assembling a vast trove of pop culture ephemera, the film is constructed as an homage to the pervasive influence of television, consumerism, and Pop Art. The film turns from the influences of TV, swimming, and skateboarding toward cars, girls, and surfing. Seen as an assemblage, the film offers a portrait of fun, sun, and the optimism that results from seeing the world as an ever-improving prospect.
Results
People connect with different touchpoints, but everyone seems to acknowledge that the film has a purity and innocence that can’t be denied.
