What is BOOKCASE about?
The idea for "BOOKCASE" came out of my desire to educate myself by creating a catalogue of film techniques. I was attempting to distill the elements of film to a pure state by stripping away any meaning from the images, to explore film as simply the masking and filtering of light. For subject matter I shot things which had, at one time or another, struck a chord within me. In doing so, I realized that I was also creating a catalogue of my own memories. I have always seen memories as discreet units of light, not unlike books on a shelf... "BOOKCASE" became not only an experiment in "pure" film, but a reflection on the concept of memory as well. In the convergence of these two ideas, light is the common basic element. (TS) The story is brought to life by director Trevor Shaikin. With a runtime of 26 minutes, it offers a concise viewing experience.
