Dear André,

So you're the only one who uses the term "Miniature," that seems good to me, no problem. Similarly if you wish to identify the camera used in your own work. I was interested to know if this was some new "movement," and I guess not. Of course, if one or two other people want to use your term, that's between you and them. I'm all in favor of individual artists making their own choices, whatever I might think of those choices and perhaps more suspicious than I should be of "movements." Thanks for replying.

Yours,
Fred

Hello Fred,

It’s just the pleasure to make very short silent artisanal 16 mm. films.

Little poems I call miniatures.

And mainly shot with the Bolex camera, a traditional tool in exp. cinema.

The technical imperfections from the analogue Equipment and film process are essential to the visual poetry.

All the best.

Sorry, if I missed a defining post, but a search turned up nothing. On the Web, the main use of "miniature" seems to be for films shot of miniature sets.

Has the term been in use much? How is it defined? Any short film? What length? The two I viewed had images of nature; is that always the case? Can it include video? Is identifying the camera used a requirement? Where I come from, talking about what kind of camera you use was a bit unusual, and you didn't necessarily want that question from viewers. At the moment it just looks like only an attempt to seek attention through "clever" re-branding. Am I missing something?

    I did a new grading from the 2k negative scan resulting in much
    better details in the low- and highlights.

    A demanding process with delicate image parameters such as gamma,
    black and white level, luminance, color corrections, ...

    In this film there are also some 16 mm Bolex miniature sequences
    at 64 fps.
