One day i had this idea that maybe if filming with a camera the falling of dominoes from a close point of view, maybe, and i repeat MAYBE, i could get an effect very similar to what the zoetrope produced. When the Boston Independent Film Festival asked me to create a trailer for them, i thought that it was a good opportunity to try and turn that maybe into something more concrete. I asked my father to create an interactive data sheet to calculate all the factors i needed to have determined before even proposing the idea. We then decided to use a motorized camera travelling on rounded tracks. But when after the 10th take we realized that the dominoes would speed up or slow down in some points and the camera would bump into them, i was a little desperate. So i asked if we could move the camera manually. That’s when key-grip Alvaro came in: he followed the fall so well that at the end of the take everyone clapped their hands. Another victory for man over machine.
