Popcorn

Lounila Liisa

'Popcorn' is shot with a self-made pinhole camera, which exposes simultaneously 528 frames. An illusion of moving around a frozen subject is created when these still images are animated into a movie. The time slice technique separates movement and time from each other. We see a group of young people throwing popcorn at each other.
