Cam Archer on Stillness

During his youth Cam Archer discovered still photography and right after went on doing his first short films and music videos. Thus he discovered the medium film. His first feature film WILD TIGERS I HAVE KNOWN (2006) has been produced by Gus Van Sant and his second film SHIT YEAR (2010) has been celebrated at the Cannes film festival in 2010. To us Cam Archer spoke about the possibilty to create the stillness of photography with the moving images of cinema. 

Als Jugendlicher hat Cam Archer die Photographie entdeckt, um bald mit zahlreichen Kurzfilmen und Musikvideos erste Erfahrungen mit dem Medium Film zu machen. Seinen Filmdebut WILD TIGERS I HAVE KNOWN (2006) hat Gus Van Sant produziert, sein zweiter Film SHIT YEAR (2010) feierte in der Quinzaine des Réalisateurs in Cannes im Mai 2010 seine Weltpremiere. Mit uns hat Cam Archer  über die Möglichkeit, die Stille der Photographie im Film herzustellen, gesprochen.
