"Utopie" is a short film made with my colleagues Rebecca Schüll
and Evolène Lavanchy. For this project, we had to choose an
unconventional screen format (in this case, 21:9) and and use it
in a way that served the story.
The 21:9 format was chosen to evoke a virtual reality headset,
while the romantic music at the beginning accentuates the
passionate and ideal side experienced by the couple; at the end,
only external noises remain to show the harshness of reality. We
sought to fully represent the woman's emotions through the
colors and ambience of the room. During the idyllic moments, the
colors are autumnal with warm tones, and there is a very
diffused light. During the reality phase, we wanted to use
greenish tones and raw neon lighting.
