Light Setting
1994 – 2:30 min
Light-setting as preparation for an official shooting (and normally not a part of shooting) is the main act of the video. A double, in place of the leading actor, sits in the studio for the light-setting, always a long and nerve-racking process. From the background, you can hear the cameraman's commands. The lighting is far from being perfect, first too dark, then too bright, then too hot. The double sheds more and more of his clothing. Suddenly, it is set ablaze.
Actor: Martin Ofori
