Camouflage explores the experience of the child growing up with a schizophrenic parent. Based on extensive research it compares a personal account with the experience of others, using interviews, drawings and animation, live action and digital composition. Voiced visions of the voices in the head as multiform memories of parental paranoia get the heightened reality they require. Case-studies committed to celluloid. Sketches of schizophrenia that draw on reality and the time in the big house, behind the trees, too far from the road.

Reviews and Other Info:
Drawings on paper were treated in different ways: some were artworked onto Chinese calligraphy paper using paint, biro, chinagraph, tippex and ink. Some were hand coloured digitally using the programme Painter. Some sequences were shot using a DV camera with insufficient light. These images were then digitized in low resolution and the filters of the line testing software CTP, normally used to clean up the image, were pushed in the opposite direction creating artifacts. The sequences were then composited and coloured in After Effects. Some sequences were animated with marker pen then scanned into the computer. Again the resolution was low and filters were pushed in the wrong direction to mess the image up. The live action ‘flashbacks’ were telecined, then digitized and then graded to give a slightly old fashioned look. Where there is a crossover from live action to animation the live action was rotoscoped to become literally a hand drawn tracing which would be scanned and coloured using Painter and After Effects. The two versions of the same movement would be blended together to make a seamless transition also using After Effects. There currently are no reviews available
