“Alone in the Zone” – Chernobyl First Person Documentary

Beeindruckender Trailer der First Person Dokumentation “Alone in the Zone” von Arkadiusz Podniesinski, der das Gelände rund um den Kernkraftreaktor Tschernobyl in atemberaubenden und authentischen Bildern 25 Jahre nach dem Super-GAU mit einer Helmkamera eingefangen hat und sich selbst mitunter in Lebensgefahr als er sich in die Todeszone begeben hat.

My idea was to deliver as true to life as possible the atmosphere in the zone. Full of realism. That is why in the film there will be no emphasis on the beauty of images, no close ups, fluid camera movements or colour correction. Post-production is kept to a minimum. Furthermore, there will be no sad stories, descriptions of human tragedy, effects of the accident. Nothing like that. I’m putting the truth out there, just as I found it. With no embellishments. Furthermore, in order to increase the viewers’ experience and the realism, I decided to use a camera mounted on my helmet. Fans of video games will certainly know FPP, or First Person Perspective. This was so that the viewers could see the zone through my eyes, from my perspective, just as I saw it. In order to feel like they had seen it themselves. And secondly, a greater benefit of this was free hands :). It allowed me to reach places where I would not have been able to take a large, professional camera. Of coure using a small camera comes at the price of lower image quality. But you win some, you lose some. In the end, I also added some fast music to give the film a more dynamic character.

Erscheinen soll die Dokumenation im April. Weitere Bilder, Berichte und Videos seine Expeditionen könnt ihr auf seiner Website finden. via langeweile
