youmightfindyourself: The scene is shot at double-speed, forty-eight frames per second, and played back at twenty-four frames per second through the projector. At the lab, frames one to twelve are allowed to run consecutively, then frame twelve gets repeated for the next twelve frames to achieve a ‘pause’ in the motion; frames thirteen to twenty-four are discarded, and frames twenty-five to thirty-six get to run consecutively, and so forth. By letting the same frame run through the projector this process distinguishes itself from the device of the ‘jump-cut’ - another editing process used to show temporal discontinuity. Something gets lost in this process - we lose sight of our surroundings. Space becomes ambiguous, things and objects around the foreground and the background merge and blend with each other. Hong Kong has been stripped of its appearance, the signs that are so easily recognizable have been replaced by an underbelly of non-signs. (via Chinese Films in Focus, 25 New Takes)
