This transfixing short film is the work of Camberwell BA Graphic Design 3rd year Charlie von Rotberg. Here’s the synopsis in Charlie’s words:
’10,000 Miles From A Car Window’ is an observational film of a 10,000 mile journey starting in the UK and ending in Mongolia. It was filmed on a Kodak Zi8 handheld pocket camera (about £100′s worth!), and most of the soundtrack was made from an amalgamation of sounds from the original footage. The film takes the viewer through 4 legs using sound and vision to create an immersive and hypnotic experience. We see drastic contrasts in pace, with emphasis on how calmness meets franeticness during the varying environments we are taken through on the journey.
Myself and three other team mates (all of whom are studying art based degrees at Glasgow School Of Art and Northumbria) saw 16 countries of varying climates and terrains in 7 long weeks of driving during the summer of 2010 all in aid of two fantastic charities.
We managed to raise just over £3000 for them by campaigning online, staging events and selling ice cream! The trip was part of “The Mongol Rally”, an annual event that raises money for charity each year. theadventurists.com
The film was for part of my Unit 10 BA Graphic Design course and in Unit 11 I hope to take the whole thing apart again and remix it into a live performance in collaboration with Beaty Heart. It’ll be accompanied by a live soundtrack that triggers visuals from the film telling the narrative in a completely different light.’
