"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...)

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

  4. 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.
