The wheel turns on...

"The unreal is more powerful than the real. Because nothing is as perfect as you can imagine it. Because its only intangible ideas, concepts, beliefs, fantasies that last. Stone crumbles. Wood rots. People, well, they die. But things as fragile as a thought, a dream, a legend, they can go on and on. If you can change the way people think. The way they see themselves. The way they see the world. You can change the way people live their lives."

— Chuck Palahniuk

After the last short and the Reiki photo shoot I haven't had the chance to do much work either in camera or cinematography, but as always, the rare things now in my agenda always find a way to mysteriously all cumulate in the same day/week. This Sunday being a fine example.

In the morning I have class (Iaido and after that aikido) after which I'll have to hurry home to be in time for the next thing...

I'm going to make a documentary about a great Belgian artist called Koenraad Tinel over the period of one year trying to cover this man's life and capture some of the fire in his soul to share it with others

He's a smith in soul, but he also makes the most beautiful drawings and other impressions as well, combining wood, fabric and iron into so many different creatures.

He's a wonderful man of many trades and I still have to get to know him having met him only once...
This Sunday afternoon Tinel is telling his life story by the hand of drawings he made and of course I'll be there listening. (And I'll take my photo camera - these pictures are not mine but I wanted to show you something at least)
I'll keep you posted on this interesting man!

Sunday evening there's the grading of the last short film I did for a director friend of mine who's also on AnD (Griet Teck). I'll try and pry some pictures of the shoot (if we have them, not sure about that actually) and maybe some screenshots to get you into the mood...
It's a very good story and the actors were incredible so I have no doubt she'll be graded accordingly.

Live your dreams people, don't forget! I'm going to dream, period :) *yawns*

' the rare things now in my agenda always find a way to mysteriously all cumulate in the same day/week. '

Why does this sounds so vaguely familiar ...

i know why. It always happens to me. When i m very free, I just go and find all sorts of nonsensical thing to make me busy and then I annoy myself by whining aout how busy I m ... Ironic ironic ironic ...

Marie Olaerts (being ‘me’ in the third person) grew up in a small village in a small country with a great liking for action movies, SF and thriller/ suspense, dreaming of how it would be like to be on a set, not visiting, but actually doing something useful. And so, that dream in the back of her mind she ended up at the Rits, a Belgian school for film making, where she graduated in 2007 as a professional bachelor (option camera/ cinematography) with the short film ‘the blessing of Henry Mullin’ as cinematographer.

Ever since then she is working on different sets in different functions, but her true passion lies with cinematography. There is still so much to learn and try, enough to fill a lifetime she is happy to discover, and her vision altered by a film-focussed life and the things she saw; she loves the light that seems just a bit off to add to the scene.

Meeting new people and education opened her horizon to a much greater rage of films, especially the Asian cinema, of which ‘Hero’ is her favourite. Though she hasn’t had the chance to see as much films as she’d like, she’s striving to correct that in the near future.

Movies she holds in high regard are: Hero, Alien, The Crow, Darkness (for the mood of the film), Musa, The game, The usual suspects, Bin Jip, Old Boy …
The documentaries ‘Long Gone’ (http://www.longgonefilm.com/) and ‘Peuple Migrateur’ opened her eyes to the fact that this genre too can be beautiful to make and film-like to watch and Monty Python was like rediscovering the comedy genre all over again.
Nothing beats ‘The Holy Grail’.

Always having lived in the middle of nowhere; contact with nature is a necessity more then anything else and when she’s not on set she likes to roam forests, meet with friends and go to class (she’s been following Aikido since November 2007 and this has become a bit of a passion). Other then that, she likes to make photographs, read, draw and write.

… There’s not much more to say really. Hello world, this is me ;)

Light is only meaningful in relation to darkness and it is the infinite play of these two opposites, where and how they meet and their relation to a certain moment in time that I seek, not to perfect, but to rediscover...
