_______
This is my master piece, I did at the filmakademie Badenwürttemberg 2007.
Thesis: A film to be used as conceptual piece embedded on my MotionDesignPortfolio - DVD.
_______
Focus for this DVD was the embedded film, containing 10 'ego-episodes' which stand as alter-ego of Nindustrict.
_______

Background:
A portfolio is usually seen as a best-of-skillz-archive aswell as a batch processing of the past, still there are very few dealing with the personality and the individual world behind the 'production heads'.

The aim of this film is to personalize a Portfolio in such a special way, that the world behind the production heads - the unique ID- appeals to the viewer.

That was the main idea of the shortfilm, establishing an Alter-Ego-character: Split in 10 episodes, Lysander has to conserve his past for restore himself. By killing his 'darlings' and rediscovering things & familiar surroundigs defining him, he finally recovers his own center.

This short is highly connected to a symbolic use of objects related to the 'good' present and the 'bad' past, Lysaner, the protaglonist, is sourrounded with.
Embedded colorcodes connect to his personality: all golden things Lysander deals with are standing for the pretending 'shining' past, he is peeling of, all turquoise things standing for the good, relieved and grounded present and future he is turning to more and more.

Each episode is authored inbetween the motiondesign works on the DVD.
