Follow an unusual day in the life of a lonely chicken on a stranded desert island.

This film is a metaphor for modern man's perception and treatment of its food resources. Whilst modern man is desensitised to how food gets to the table and is inept at capturing it in the wild, he is also detached from the emotional factor of using animals for food. Contrast with ancient man who in spite of his clear hunting skills, and the sheer necessity for hunting, is nevertheless more emotionally connected to the plight of his prey.

An Entry for Stray Cinema- Man is ever Evolving... or is he? This short film shows the uncanny similarities between modern man and his humble beginnings.

tvolution

the project aims to show tvolution evolution of man is seen standing and placing on the starting point for the influences of television.

the images show an evolution from an egg from the chicken, a primitive man and finally modern man. this modern man stands up and going to watch a television that makes the next step in the evolutionary chain is the starting point.

the treatment of selected images and sound intended to create a haunting atmosphere of anxiety to see that the piece has been seen with suspicion and unease.

the intention is to inspire reflection on the influence of the media, especially television, in our criticism.

television transforms us into a being thoughtful or thoughtless? television has been used as a means of becoming dentreteniment only a passive spectator? we can change it?

the name chosen is fairly straightforward and combines the acronym evolution tv to explain that this is the evolution of television today seems hard.

there is a little more poetic look at the images chosen and is the treatment of early man as opposed to modern man. primitive man shows spontaneous message, free, able to enjoy something so beautiful and simple as a flower, and in contrast the modern man appears with a weary pace, heavy, and not knowing where it goes.
the detail of the club just to highlight this polarity, primitive man runs with him in the hand while modern man relies on him as tired.

theoretical and conceptual framework

tcolution wants to provoke reflection on the influence of the television in the development of critical thinking of modern man. in this sense the project is emmarca currents in communication theory who work on the influence of the media in the receivers.

another aspect is the overall normalization and spectacle of television content that generates an uncritical viewer and reduces the usefulness of the medium to a tool for fun.
this feature almost unique in today's tv content underestimates their potential. only for some internet window is offering some of the content that television, whether economic or political interests is failing to take into account.

as video tvolution building project in the watershed is emmarca videotape involving a frontal view on a monitor, to which the viewer remains stationary in this sense the project could be considered a metalanguage for the final scene with an unmoved spectator the monitor can be a mirror of the viewer of the piece.
as for the video features of creation, tvolution proposes an evolutionary narrative style that almost never videocreations seek offending is in this sense from the tendency of video art but rather classical in narrative and the notion time.
in the piece there is no intention to break racords, although at some point is not achieved more by limiting the raw images at the author.

the images are appropriated from another source to create another open room reinterpreting the photo. this technique, the found footage is based on a collage of pictures recycled from other sources. in this case the images have been used exclusively by stray cinema but in a video collage you can use different sources to create the piece from scratch as that created by max almy and yarbrow with video tery utopia.

the piece was conceived by straycinema contest. the event is an experiment in open source cinema where they have to combine a raw concrete dimatges shared online. each filmmaker is working a new piece from the same images, this piece should last two minutes to compete. in this type of online video support are other experiences with authors such as fernando llanos and nicolas barrier, but these artists work with images with no own production found footage.

This short was created for the Stray Cinema Film Festival, the short explorers the feelings of isolation, loneliness and abandoment we all feel at times and how we often encounter our demons along the way. The music for the film was composed by Micah D Templeton-Wolfe/Stray Theories Music (www.straytheoriesmusic.com). Please give feedback/ideas and enjoy!

this is a video about everybody. all of us lives in the consumerism society, this way of live bring us up to a loop that make us feel sad and alone. sometimes we make illusions with something and we feel alive but normally this sensation it isn't forever. so, we have to have a look around our lives and see what make us feel complete and enjoy it!
