Short films by Lillian F. Schwartz (1927-2024)
“REFLECTIONS” – 4 Min. A 4 minute film based on flowing changing images from liquid-like faces to flashing abstract imagery.
From its original inception in a 128 frame black-and-white sequence it evolves by programmed reflection, inversion, magnification, color transformation and time distortion into the final restructured film as art. “As expert hands in the complex techniques of integrating the computer and animation, L.
