ABOUT THE FILM

Considering Allen Ginsberg's concept  “First Thought, Best Thought" – Matt set out to write, direct, and shoot a movie derived using his own automatic writing - unaltered first drafts of dialogues and scenarios - intentionally disregarding strict narrative conventions. Within only a few weeks, the automatic writing was transformed into the screenplay which the actors performed word-for-word. The Scenes were shot by Matt in a way inspired by Psychosymbiotaxiplasm, Run Lola Run, and Slacker.

Colorblind Color Corrector is a visual punk poem feature film - an absurdist science fiction satire filled with existential dread in the face of confusing bureaucracy and stiff social conventions - a surreal emotional landscape, featuring themes of changing identity and responsibility to the current moment. And some deep intimacy.

SEEING THE WORLD DIFFERENTLY

The film is shot in anamorphic 1.5, with a unique Nikon taking lens, a combination designed to emulate film texture from the 1970s. Combined with the Red Komodo’s global shutter, raw images were transformed by color corrector Marc Weilage into various 35 mm film stocks and occasional colorblindness. The film was shot in Red Raw 6K and finished in 4K.
