VRFLM is a short study for the optical printer, based on found footage of fire, on coloured light from the printer and on partially destroyed film. The film evolves from a traditionally centered images towards images covering lengths of the filmstrip and which originate from the film-material itself. VRFLM consists of 11 sections of which the duration and content was determined beforehand. These I filled in while improvising. Most of the images stem from a piece of found footage which zooms in on a fire during about 30 seconds. I manipulated this original using colour filters, by combining negative and positive versions, by slowing down and speeding up and by solarisation. Also I used colour flicker and chemically destroyed black film-leader.
