The Promise of the Screen
An anthology of film scenes about how to frame, shoot, light and develop film, and also, perhaps, about how to commit suicide with a camera. This sequence is based on technical and popularising works kept by the French Photography Society in Paris, and details the multiple uses of the medium: from fashion photography to judicial photography, and from amateur photography to photo-journalism. Based on an idea by Pierre Leguillon, Production: Elysee Museum, Lausanne. Photo expert: Aurelien Mole. With special thanks to Clement Cheroux, Paul-Louis Roubert and Sam Stourdze. 22.02.2015. 19.00.
