Sunstone

A moon-faced mask is transformed, made to gleam with vibrant, radiant light and colour. Pulling back, the camera reveals other versions of the mask on the sides of a rotating cube and, on one of the cube’s sides, a Marey-like depiction of human movement is traced and colourized. The control of movement, the creation of a sense of holographic space, and the array of colours are products of the film’s computer animation, using some of the techniques developed by the New York Institute of Technology.
