13th Tallinn Black Nights Film Festival presents:

VIDEO JACK: André Carrilho /LISBON/ & Nuno Correia /TALLINN/ „Master and Margarita"

Master and Margarita" is an audio-visual adaptation of Mikhail Bulgakov's masterpiece. The visual style of Video Jack's "Master and Margarita" brings together a graphical collage of photographic and drawn elements into interactive animations, influenced by Soviet-period imagery. The surreal, almost demential, universe of Bulgakov is captured graphically. In sonic terms, the references are Igor Stravinsky, Kurt Weil, Can, Tom Waits, Einstürzende Neubauten, Pan Sonic and Vladislav Delay.

 

Video Jack started in 2004 as collaboration between Portuguese artists André Carrilho and Nuno Correia for VJing and Audio-Visual art.
André Carrilho is an illustrator / designer / animator and works for such publications as New York Times, The New Yorker, Harper's, The Independent, Vanity Fair and El Mundo. He is also part of the animated cartoon collective Spam Cartoon.
Nuno Correia (aka Coden) is a programmer / DJ / musician and is a PhD student at Media Lab Helsinki (since 2006), where he also teaches.
