Videopia loves silent movies…

This week we went to see two rather wonderful movies. The 3D spectacular Hugo and black and white silent sensation The Artist. Both were terrifically inspiring and got us thinking about ways we might shoot vintage looking silent movies with our audiences. After all, everyone looks better in black and white don’t they?

A fabulous still from the final dance scene in Michel Hazanavicius’ The Artist.

A clip from Georges Méliès’ iconic Trip to the Moon, as seen in Scorsese’s Hugo.
