Description
Fresh Memories: The Look is a 360-video about the war in Ukraine that takes the deceptively simple idea of having Ukrainian citizens gaze into a 360-degree camera within the context of a bombed out home, workplace, or school that's juxtaposed against an audio design of that space when it would be at it's most flourishing moment. The experience of straightforward concept is extremely powerful, emotional, and evocative idea. The use of a traditional Ukrainian folk song at the end was specifically recorded for this piece to great effect. I had a chance to catch up with Ondrej Moravec, who is the co-director on the Czech side and producer, as well as Volodymyr Kolbasa, who is the co-director on the Ukrainian side.
