IMMERSIVE COCOON "2011"
Keir Dullea encounters a mysterious object, in a scenario reminiscent of the penultimate scene from Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey that he appeared in over forty years ago.
This teaser short/faux commercial - best played loud and maximized - was developed over a two year period on a shoestring budget. Live action was filmed multi-camera, against greenscreen atop a backlit plexi floor. Mr. Dullea was then integrated into an entirely digitally created CG set rendered at 1080HD.
Official Selection to OneDotZero 2011 Film Festival, Future Cities, at BFI Southbank London.
