Her Morning Elegance | 3:35 | 2009 | Isreal/Berlin/NY
Director: Oren Lavie
Oren Lavie is a songwriter, director, and writer of funny books for sad children. Her Morning Elegance is a delightful exploration of movement captured via fragmented moments in time. The video animates the fantastic dream of a sleeping woman without ever leaving her bedroom, using her mattress as the canvas of the dream and the bed frame as the dolly of her journey.
Over 3,225 photographed still images are patched together through the visionary process of frame by frame animation. Some bed sheets in the video were taken from Oren’s own bedroom and are now considered collectors items, worth at the moment not very much and therefore used as bed sheets.
