Moments Without Proper Names
Director of Photography
Moments Without Proper Names makes Parks makes himself the subject, tracing his development as a person and an artist through an hourlong, non-narrative abstract self-portrait that combines Parks’s photographs with his musical compositions and scenes from his films. It also features footage of Parks, plus interpretations of his personal reminiscences performed by actors Avery Brooks, Roscoe Lee Browne, and Joe Seneca.
Party in Rio
Cinematography
This is a short travel log of the night and beach life of Rio de Janeiro during the annual Carnival. Arnold spends some time with beautiful models in the Club Oba Oba, on the beach, at the parade, at a costume party, in a couple of restaurants, and at a street side cafe.
Art of the Sixties
Cinematography
This film documents the major directions in modern American art during the first seven years of the 1960s. The keynote is that the artist has expanded his realm from the two-dimentional picture frame, climaxed by the artists of the 40s and early 50s, merged color with sculpture, and sought out modern media to express himself. This has produced the characteristic wide spectrum of interest, ideas, and products in contemporary art.
