Egypt Montage on New York Times website
I am very excited to say that the montage Khalid Mohtaseb and myself shot in Egypt is featured on the New York Times website. Check it out here: http://lens.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/11/20/must-28/
New York Times also gave us a little write-up on the video:
“We are bombarded these days with so many negative images out of the Middle East that a video like this, from Egypt and Lebanon, is welcome and fresh. It is little more than a strung-together sequence of street images from Cairo and Beirut. But what images they are! In this magnificent moving postcard, we see dusty streets and lumbering camels, people and places that could have been plucked out of another time entirely. The shots (all with a Canon 5D) are overcranked and played back in slow motion over music, creating an emotional heft that is nicely sustained throughout the piece. The filmmakers, Khalid Mohtaseb and Jonathan Bregel, have captured scenes so cinematically that you would be forgiven for believing you were watching a movie. (E.O.)”
