Video Break: The 3rd and the 7th

The Third & The Seventh from Alex Roman on Vimeo.

This charming film is reminiscent of Magritte on a tour of great buildings, in a universe devoid of any other people. Created by Alex Roman, the twelve and a half minute homage to line and form is almost entirely made with CGI (computer generated imagery). Throughout the course of the piece, Roman plays with ideas of light, wind and water, all to captivating effect.

For the full impact, follow the link back to the video's home page on Vimeo and hit the "fullscreen" option. That's unfortunately unavailable in the public version.
