Benshi Media recently had the wonderful opportunity to collaborate with Bowen Island Lodge, located in British Columbia, and create a short promo. We spent a full day on Bowen, and stayed the night at the lodge. The accommodations were wonderful, and the people we came by during our day were remarkably kind. Definitely a nice departure from the city.

During the Winter of 2013, Benshi Media spontaneously decided to visit Vancouver Island on a whim, without any predetermined plans other than to shoot what popped out at us as interesting.
A man walks up to us in a small coffee shop and asks "Hey, are you tech-savvy guys?" Us, being the tech-savvy nerds we are, were thrilled to help him out by sending his family photos to his daughter. During the process, we asked him about the history of the murals around town and immediately knew Chris had an important story to tell.

During the Winter of 2013, Benshi Media spontaneously decided to visit Vancouver Island on a whim, without any predetermined plans other than to shoot what popped out at us as interesting. While relaxing in a homely coffee shop in the small town of Chemainus, a kind elderly lady approached us and informed us of local school that epitomized the culture and community of the Island, and that warranted coverage. This is the story of Chemainus Secondary.

ABERRATION (2014), is a short experimental film I created with the intent to test the concept of disharmony, chromaticism, and unison, and how I could progressively apply these concepts in order to warp a harmonious image into something that is uncontrolled and chaotic. It is predominantly inspired by various German Expressionist films, such as The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (1920), which had the tendency to explore the darker elements of the human psyche, as well as invoke feelings of unease as a result of being visually abstract. In order to express this idea, I chose the most harmonious image I could think of, a single white circle, and over the span of two minutes, progressively distorted it until it reached a moment of maximum chaos that is unsettling, and the antithesis to the original circle which had first graced the screen.
The animation was created using After Effects CS6, as well as various plugins.
The audio track was created using Image Line's Harmor, a powerful additive/subtractive/image synthesizer, as well as various recordings of violent weather and wailing animals that were pitched down.
If you're looking for a team of well-rounded filmmakers, I am part of Benshi Media, a Vancouver based production company that specializes in promo and documentary work.
