We created this short video with a friend to continue our visual experimentations during an urbex session. We hope you will enjoy it! :)

Pitch : What if a mobile application exists to check the radioactivity of a place, check that water or food are edible and where they come from? That is the idea we wanted to show in this fake ad. It can be very usefull after in a post-apocalyptic environment.



Key books to guide this project

This movie will mix various thematics. I think the main problematic will be inspired by Anticipation books.The story background probably will take place in a distopian world, a kind of modern soft and accepted dictatorship.

My key books are :
- Fahrenheit 451 - Ray Bradbury
- 1984 - George Orwell
- We - Ievgueni Zamiatine  (in french : Nous autres)
- This perfect day - Ira Levin (Un bonheur insoutenable)
- Brave New World - Aldous Huxley (Le meilleur des mondes)

The graphic style and thematics related to technology will be inspired by Cyberpunk.

My key books in this domain are :
- Neuromancer - William Gibson (Neuromancien)
- Count Zero - William Gibson (Comte Zéro)
- Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? - Philip K. Dick (Blade Runner)

It's the base. In specific topics, I will talk about some less famous books like Soft Goulag - Yves Velan and La Zone du Dehors - Alain Damasio.

Other books that inspired me : 
- The World Inside - Robert Silveberg (Les Monades urbaines)
- The Robot series - Isaac Asimov (Le Cycle des Robots)
- Mockingbird - Walter Tevis (L'Oiseau d'Amérique)
- The Wave - Todd Strasser (La Vague)
- Ravage - René Barjavel

Don't hesitate to suggest me some key books ! Thanks ! :)
