Schull Windows - Doc's images

Finished my 'Anatomy of An Internet Series' presentation in Schull today, at the 2013 Corona Fastnet Short Film Festival - all good! Here are two images taken by Brown Bag's Darragh O' Connell, of me with two of my 'museum' windows...

Fastnet - The Art of Animation Window

This window features models from 'Jack O' Metti', one of David Quin's many incomplete short films. The window also features stopmotion characters from 'This Terrible Visitation', yet another abandoned project about The Famine. Something of the chaos of the stopmotion workshop is suggested by the recreated workbench - a mishmash of wire, acrylic paint, models, cardboard, tools, postcards, cigarette packets, sketches and drawings.

Fastnet - 'To Forget' Window

'To Forget' was David Quin's first stopmotion short film, produced in 1991 on 16mm film. The film was 15 minutes long and received an Arts Council Film and Video Award.

 
To Forget - The Fool and Rosa
 
The film told the story of a fool who wandered the world in his unhappy attempts to forget the love of his life, the beautiful Rosa. This film was heavily influenced by the 1991 Gulf War. This window also features some of David Quin’s sculptures, three figurative works and an abstract ‘Tall Tower’.
