Heavy-Light (1973)

Genre : Documentary

Runtime : 6M

Director : Adam Beckett

Synopsis

This is one of those abstract animated films in which colored, richly textured light moves in a black, three-dimensional space. The pictures and the electronic score are unified in a strict structure made of three main sections which progressively develop three subsections. This film may look like it was made using computers or video to the uninitiated, but only animation and much optical printing are to be seen herein.
