FrontaDirected by Goran Škofić2012 | 7’59” | DigiBeta | ColourAt first one, then two characters pass by, then awhole army starts marching like a river of multipliedcharacters, and all their permutations: this is the basicmodel that creates the story. By using a white visualbackground and a hybrid sound, we follow images ofthe army and soldiers, colonies, parades, scenes thatflow continually, representing the mass of uniformedbodies as the representation of power. The artist’sbody is multiplied, dressed in the conventional darksuit of a serious yuppie, without specific marks ofidentity. The work presents an ordinary man who,through the process of being multiplied, becomes asort of corporation.Written by Goran ŠkofićAnimation Goran Škofić, Fran Sokolić, fagepCinematography Goran ŠkofićEditing Fran Sokolić, fagepArt Direction Goran ŠkofićSound Design Ivan ArnoldProduced by Damir ČučićProduction Company Milva film & video; in co-productionwith Museum of Contemporary Art (Croatia)Festivals & Awards 2012· 8 th 25 fps International Experimental Film and VideoFestival – Focus on Croatia· 16 th International Video Festival Videomedeja (1)· Bogdanka Poznanović AwardGoran Škofić (1979) – Selected Filmography· E-body 25 (2005) – short experimental· Pilot 0.1 (2002) – short experimental· House of Dolls | Kuća lutaka (2001) – shortexperimentalMilva film & videoLangova 6310 430 Samobor, CroatiaTel: +385 (0)1 3362 132Fax: +385 (0)1 3362 799damir.cucic@zg.t-com.hrShort Experimental Films 2012 71
