RESISTANCE REVISITED
A RE-IMAGING OF RESISTANCE - A NOVEL BY OWEN SHEERS
So let’s tell the story in pictures using the language of film so familiar to me.
Is it possible to retell the vast complexity of Resistance the novel, in the flow of pictures?
Can film language help us on our emotional ride through the story?
Can fades, jump cuts, flashbacks and scene coverage be used within a
series of stills photographs?
The story creates a platform for the pictures, a reason to be. The story is a way of looking at the pictures.
What follows is a selection from the book available via Blurb.
These photographs were created by myself, family and friends. They are not stills taken during the making of the subsequent film ‘Resistance’ , which at the time, was a dream waiting to realised in the Filmakers heads.
