THE MAKING OF… ‘JAMES ENSOR’

A reportage of the shooting of the ‘Ensor’ fragment exhibited in the ‘Mouvements’ show (KMSK / NICC) by Guillaume Bijl. Recorded while shooting in Ostend in April 2000, it runs more or less ‘in’-congruently with the actual film, due to the fact that the cameraman in this case was also taking part in the ‘fragment’ as an actor… it can be seen as a ‘souvenir / home-movie’, ‘reportage brut / cinéma vérité’ or ‘hand-held archive / behind-the-scenes peek’ style document…even more interesting would be to place the rough-cut of ‘camera I’ and this film (camera II) next to each other simultaneously…
