Austrian macro filmmaker Clemens Wirth never fails to cast his cinematic spell on us here at DN – be that with the miniature moments of frozen life in his Herbst title sequence and compilation short One Minute of Miniatures, or the microscopic visuals of battling organisms revealed in Micro Empire . He’s now taken mother nature and its different elements as his muse in new short mini landscapes, in which he’s, “tried to recreate some of these nature great events our beautiful planet has to offer, in a much smaller scale.” Shot on a Blackmagic pocket cinema camera, Wirth carefully crafted every scene by hand (bonus making of shots at the end of the film). The results are, as you’d expect, astounding.
About the Author / MarBelle

MarBelle has a strange compulsion to watch as many films as he can get his hands on and find jobs that give him a legitimate excuse to drill filmmakers about their work. Directors Notes is the multi-decade incarnation of this disorder and remains so much cheaper than film school.
