Earlier this month, the Methodist Church of Echo Park hosted a series of film screenings. Among the films that caught our eye was a series of 15 small clips, which visualize the world with the camera in pixilation “and a whole lot of fun.” The dynamic duo behind this project is Stephan Müller and Erik Schmitt. The pair of directors calls their project Kamerapferd, or “Camera Horse” to the US crowd. According to Schmitt, “Camera Horse is just a translation for you guys so you don’t think we’re complete freaks.”
Anyway, the film clips are really fun but not as fun as Camera Horse themselves. As Schmitt and Müller currently reside in Germany and couldn’t be with us at the festival, they took it upon themselves to dress in matching clothing, whirl around in office chairs, and tell us about their project through a snazzy video that they put together in response to our interview questions. Experience “Camera Horse” below.
