[Frameworks] Big Shadows

[Gene Youngblood]

Sounds interesting, Pip. Like the inverse of Bill Viola’s “Sweet Light,” in which he walks toward the camera at night wearing white clothes with someone walking along beside him in black clothes shining a bright light on him. This starts at some distance, so all you see is a glowing white figure advancing toward the camera with direct sound picking up his footsteps.

I can't find the title now but I think it fits right in.
