2001 A Space Odyssey: Unwrapping the Slit Scan sequences

2001 led me down some dangerous paths. It was one of those gateway drugs to photography for sure.

I got pretty fascinated with slit-scan techniques for a while. So much so that I spent many late nights making a program to *develop* my own out of .tif sequences. Strangely I was lucky enough to use that tech on a feature I was working on that same year. Kismet I guess.

Here's a couple of my earlier experiments.

This one happens to also be shot on anamorphic.

And here's my ugly mug/self potrait.

There are actually some really great slit-scan videos up on Vimeo. Worth looking at for sure.

It takes a good deal of time to make a quality 2k-4k slit-scan video, but you can indeed do a lot with the concept.

Thanks Evan. Maybe I'll do an installation piece or something. Initially it was more of curiosity of "how'd they do that" and "can I do that". Haven't made one in a year or so. I have some new ideas
