Dreamcore

"A memory of somewhere that never was the uncanny settled into the ordinary until it becomes unbearable"

Shot list

• Portrait in a domestic space with one element that does not belong a door to nowhere, a too-bright light
• Wide shot of a familiar interior (living room, bedroom) photographed with a slow shutter at dusk, creating blur and ghostly soft focus
• Subject at the end of a long hallway or in a stairwell, small and slightly out of focus, the space dominant

Lighting

The worst light imaginable overhead fluorescent that casts downward shadows, a window that over-exposes one side, a practical lamp at the wrong height; dreamcore lighting creates unease through incongruity
