Re: This is disturbing...
A very interesting piece of work from some interesting people
The 6-minuter started off as an ad, then a music video utilizing "afx237 v.7" from Aphex Twin's 2001 album drukqs, onto which Chris added his own sounds and music. During the four-year span it took to complete, time also used on aborted features and the like, Chris learned After Effects, and Rubber Johnny morphed into the short it is now.
As Warp synopsized, "Johnny is a hyperactive, shape-shifting mutant child, kept locked away in a basement. With only his feverish imagination and his terrified dog for company, he finds ways to amuse himself in the dark." But the story behind Johnny is a bit of a red herring, as "afx237 v.7" sparked Chris' primary interests, here: the synchronization of sound and film, the human form and its distortion, a certain technological paranoia, and machinery.
The film was shot on DV, and most of it filmed in infrared, that now-familiar nightvision that turns you into an alien with glowing eyes. This might make me a weirdo, but I found the intro to be rather touching and right hilarious. In it a psychologist gives Johnny a short, syrupy talking-to, even as Johnny freaks out a bit, dangerously. It segues on a perfect beat into the title sequence, and then the true film itself.
