Lat.Copiare played to rave reviews at the April 2021 DANCE & MUSIC Festival.

What motivated you to make this film?

It was my diploma in printmaking in 2006. I asked myself why to draw an image, when I can make a copy of it. So I started using copy machines for prints and finally animated them.

2. From the idea to the finished product, how long did it take for you to make this short?

I don´t remember, really. I started using copys in 2004, and that was the first time I attended workshops at Akademy of fine Arts Crakow for animation. The work grew and grew. Drawing of the sequences took me about 2-3 months , the cutting about 1-2 months, but developing the idea for sure 2 years.

3. How would you describe your short film in two words!?

Floating graphic

4. What was the biggest obstacle you faced in completing this film?

To add a third dimension within the surface of the machine.

5. What were your initial reactions when watching the audience talking about your film in the feedback video?

I was quite nervous before watching and then impressed how professional and detailed the feedbacks have been.

7. What film have you seen the most in your life?

There are many, mostly sience fiction, but when I´m in blue mood I love roadmovies

8. You submitted to the festival via FilmFreeway, what are you feelings of the submission platform from a filmmaker’s perspective?

It´s a great opportunity for both, filmmakers and festivals. Detailed, easy and trustworthy.

9. What is your favorite meal?

I like scrumbled eggs and my fav in restaurants is lamb.

10. What is next for you? A new film?

I´m collecting sequences at the moment – I´m not sure but I think I´m working on two films.
