Filmed during the Australian leg of their massive world tour, Superstars And Canonballs takes you to the heart, soul, and nerve-centre of one of the world's most popular and successful bands… and includes, exclusive to video, the never-before-seen, full length documentary "Parallel Lives". In this intimate video journal, Darren and Daniel give unprecedented access to our cameras, allowing us to follow them on stage and behind the scenes… What is revealed is surprisingly frank insight into the minds and experiences of two very talented individuals. For the very first time, Darren and Daniel talk candidly about their unique creative-collaboration, friendship and life on the road. Accompanying this sensational documentary is the entire 90 minute live Affirmation concert. Filmed in spectacular widescreen during their hometown Brisbane concert, a staggering eleven cameras bring to life the excitement and frenzy of the real concert experience.
Director
The original camera footage for STASIS is an 8-minute, 8:1 camera zoom. That footage was then printed with an equal but complimentary optical zoom resulting in an image of apparent stillness. Stasis is the image of the stillness in motion. Stasis counterpoints the movements of running water in a stream within a still-camera shot, with a steady zoom from without the filmed image (including subtle sprocket holes and frame lines) to a close-up within the image. “A zoom-out camera shot of a stream in Western Colorado is compensated for by a reverse zoom in rephotography. The tension between these movements creates a drama and a commentary on cinematic illusionism.” -Roberta Friedman
