“CHROMATICITY” /ˌkrəʊməˈtɪsɪtɪ/ - the quality of a color as determined by its dominant wavelength and its purity. An ethereal flight over the ocean as mysterious colored smoke leaves its mark across the sky. A beautiful choreography between four drones simultaneously in flight.

Music video directed for the charismatic LA-born musician Charles X for his eagerly anticipated new single entitled Can You Do It in mixed 3D/2D animation produced by Eddy and animated at Brunch Studio. This collaboration is intended to act as a social commentary which aims to cast light on perceived societal expectations and social norms by integrating elements and people from different walks of life. I sought to merge the typically highbrow sport of horse racing with the commonly misrepresented “mean streets” of Pacoima, the proud birthplace of Charles X, to challenge any stereotypes or preconceptions of race and social class which may exist in modern day society. I wanted to communicate Charles’ intended message via the lens of an artificial world in my own style of animation. “Can You Do It” is now available on Charles X’s new album, “Sounds of the Yesteryear”: ♱ Spotify https://play.spotify.com/album/44kOuu… ♱ Deezer http://www.deezer.com/album/12461860 ♱ Youtube https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list… ♱ iTunes https://itunes.apple.com/fr/album/sou… ♱ Physical store Cd / Lp http://alterk.bigcartel.com Credits: Lyrics: Charles X Music: Redrum Director: Quentin Baillieux Production : www.Eddy.tv Co-producers : Les Androids Associés (previz) Executive Producer : Corry Van Rhijn Producer : Julie Bellemare Animation studio : Brunch Post Production : Nightshift Storyboard : Noé Lecombre Character design : Wandrille Maunoury Typography : Pierre-Alban Kientz Modeling : David Arnould, Clement Lauricella, Valentin Samuel, Théo Dusapin Set up : Adrien Gentil, Maxime Cozick Animation 2D : Michael Bataille, Tristan Poulain, Amélie Maurice Motion Design : Almir NagoAnimation 3D : Axel Digois, Aline Hananel, Johann Le Pouder,Rendering : Candice Theuillon, Remi Julien, Mathieu Maurel, Jean-Charles Kerninon Previs Artists : Les Androids Associés - Volcy Gallois-Montbrun, Tristan Laville, Guillaume Robert, Henri Zaitoun Editor : Benjamin Massoubre Color grading : Gabriel PorierColor grading consultant : Luis Arteaga Stagiaires développement : Arthur Chaumay, Leïla Courtillon Thanks to: Nicolas de Rosanbo, Jean-François Bourrel, Mathieu Hue, Julien Desplanques, Nolwenn Hajo, Franck Duchene, Charles-Philippe Bowles, Celine Vanlint, Moses Yohannes, Raphaelle Tinland, Olivier Rigout, Laura Rouvellat, Nicolas Guibert.

Bounce: Taking us far, wide and deep into our ancient past to...
Bounce: Taking us far, wide and deep into our ancient past to ask ‘Why do we play ball?’ What is it about the shape of a ball that fascinates humans and animals alike? Accessible and fascinating, the doc explores the origins of our captivation with the ball and ball games. Travelling across time and around the world we discover that universally the ball has stamped its mark on our lives and fuelled our passion to compete. A compelling doc searching for the reasons we play. A make-shift ball bounces along a dusty dirt track of a Congolese village, chased by a crowd of young children. It’s a game rooted in a deep global history, “the most extraordinary personal and public theatre of the emotions and the human soul”. In Kirkwall, Scotland, grown men fiercely wrestle a ball through the streets in a violent game that is rooted in the beginnings of what we know today as football. Primal and exalted, the ball game is “a microcosm of our lives… it’s the place where we can act out the drama of human existence”. “Spin, uncertainty, variation, bounce.” These are the qualities of the ball that have entertained not only humans, but other social creatures. A strange spherical stone collection from early hominids indicates we’ve been playing with balls forever. And man’s closest living relatives, the Bonobo monkeys, love to play their own ball games. The sequence beautifully illustrates a further axis across species and the ages of ball fixation. It’s everywhere we look – fruit, seeds, stones, the sun, planets, “the things that we depended on for our existence” points out one anthropologist. therefore he indicates, it’s no surprise that the ball has become a focal point for human play and culture, linking deeply to our psychological development. The ball is at the centre of the biggest human evolutionary breakthroughs: sociality, intelligence, empathy, and morality. The unpredictability of the bouncing ball forces humans to create rules and boundaries, to negotiate and understand both the laws of physics and their connection to other people. From games of marbles in the school playground, to the mesmerising tricks of a juggler and the raucous cheers of the World Cup, stunning cinematography and expert interviews, capture the collective human experience of the ball. A far-reaching and intelligent exploration of the significance of the sphere. This is a doc that truly knocks it out of the park.

Carved in Mayhem is the poetic depiction of one man’s unique journey. It is the picture when the forces of nature that surround one, collide with an opposing resistance of the human spirit. Johnny Bang Reilly is a man on a journey. Like many of us, he is on a search for peace and truth, however his path to this point is what sets him apart. His life has arched from receiving abuse to giving forgiveness, incarceration to liberation, hate to gratitude: trading in a sealed fate for an accidental destiny. POEM I got to a point in my existence with my head insisting i live to kill Spilling my ills…I was engulfed to go public and show my life was rubbished. Everything about me obsessed to mess a man’s life up and leave his family with the knowledge i cut his head off I preserved me…to decay them I carved me in my mayhem, a stone cut from the same element. My mother gave birth to a story that will shame men, this became my importance. every day that came and went venting mentally my mentality. I sedated my impatience with drugs and booze. I stalked and wrote the horror story. Lies gave me my act as an asset my ego relaxed in the sociopathic… Every day i fight with my lack of patience, so i sedate me, making me weak That don’t work. How can i have my dream to be a nightmare? I’m not sharp and my body is not prepared…so i cleaned my act. Trained hard to let the steam off, cleaned my diet to strengthen my mean heart, but it cleaned my heart. Thoughts were feeding my fed up, love was fixing my head up. A new story was starting to write itself I was liking myself I realized I was not going to just kill him…I was going to kill me Fuck that. Now I live to shine relax my spine in the quiet of the divine that gives the sky To cover my life I live like I don’t want anyone to die. Vibrant I feel facilitated for no reason other than something loves me to be alive… I oblige With body heart and mind… I have found my spirit my creativity is how I live my life realizes it. Read my manifest manifested, from cursed to blessed… the hand of the divine gave me time to rise and rest. Blessed. I eat sleep train and move to be the best version of me my children can get and our love can ensue… blessed… I’m grateful not hate obsessed. My life was carved from a stone, 52 years was never too late to begin again. CREDITS A Neighborhood Film Co.

Muhammed Faris became Syria’s first Syrian astronaut in 1987, and subsequently used as a propaganda tool by President Hafez al-Assad. But when the Syrian people rose up against his son Bashar, Faris sided with the Free Syrian Army rebels. Now a refugee in Istanbul, he reflects on his exile from the beloved country he once saw from space
