Short film Tåke

Tåke is a landscape film capturing mysterious natural and man-made fog-obscured scenes.    

The film observes the spectacle of fog through several different film- and video formats. It explores the behaviour of Super-8 and 16mm film alongside digital video against a visual obstacle. 

The imagery is recorded on location in Oslo, Azores, Beijing and Newfoundland.   In parallel to the image the soundtrack attempts to create an auditory fog.  It compares the loss of visibility to the loss of audible frequencies.
