Statement and Press Kit
Posted: October 21st, 2009 | Author: admin | Filed under: Posts | Comments OffJ.F. Culhane is most interested in telling modern stories using digital technology. The methods to achieve these worlds include linear and interactive video, photography, websites, viral media, and virtual elements.
The narrative themes J.F. Culhane is most fascinated by include derivative stories and folklore, chance operations, unseen patterns with subtle subconscious influences, impossibly subjective personal labyrinthine journeys, obsessive behavior and rituals, and the meaning of the modern community.
Radio Free Blissville is a short film tangent of a longer feature script. The short sets up the foundation for a world where humanity’s increased dependency on technology has failed, and the perception of remaining technology as a form of magic invent new myths and necessary communications.
