"A Bout de souffle" by Warren Craghead



It's not abstract, but this impressionistic shot-by-shot re-drawing of Godard's "Breathless" by our very own Warren Craghead, over at Hooded Utilitarian, has to be seen to be believed.

Now if I can only convince Warren to post some more work here! (Hint hint...)

    How did you deal with the jump cuts? Does a shot broken by a jump cut count as one shot or two?

    two shots with (usually) a little lightning bolt between the panels. I drew inside cuts too when things moved around so much that it was like a whole new shot. Those have little lines connecting the panels. The end is just lots of frames though.

    Have you ever seen this? Read the description in the customer review.

    that is great! I have one like it for Battleship Potemkin but it doesn't illustrates all the shots, juts describes them.
