Blue Cigarette by Ricardo Vieira Lisboa
2' 15'' / 16mm / experimental, animation / 2018 / Portugal When filming smoke, in color, cinematographers must avoid the "blue smoke" phenomenon. "Blue Cigarette" is a direct cinema experience on 16mm film, it takes the same time of a cigarette burning and is filled with cigarette burns. The strip was tortured, scratched, punctured, erased, colored, and animated: an exploration on the volatility of the film medium, as if it was itself a cigarette and one could smoke it all the way. |
Ricardo Vieira Lisboa (Lisbon, 1991) holds an undergraduate and master's degree in Applied Mathematics and Computer Science, and a master's degree in Cinema - Directing and Dramaturgy. He works as a film programmer for IndieLisboa and occasionally as a curator for the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation. He is a film critic for À Pala de Walsh, a website he co-edits and co-founded.
