皮特·里克提,他是瑞士电影中心推荐的五个愿意到草场地工作站做工作坊的瑞士电影人之一。皮特·里克提追求深度表达、自由、随意的镜头画面和严谨、非常有层次的影片结构,令所有人着迷。这是极具影像专业水准,但完全追求个人自由表达的影像作品。在当下纪录片越来越成为“社会问题的X光”的代名词时,皮特的作品体现了离开“大命题”的个人表达的自由,同时也让人领悟到,今天时代里“个人问题和遭遇依然是最具体最难解决的麻烦”。所谓深度表达也还是“人的问题”。我在邮件里和皮特交流时说,我喜欢他的这种“个人影像方式”作品,他回答说,他愿意说自己的作品是“影像随笔”。这个专辑介绍的是皮特·里克提在草场地工作站今年“交叉”活动中放映的五部电影作品,以及相关他的作品评介。非常高兴皮特专门为这个专辑撰写的文章,这是他在结束草场地工作站的工作坊和放映活动回到瑞士后写的。在此也特别感谢宋田的英文翻译和许评修的德语翻译。 Peter Ritchie, one of the five Swiss filmmakers recommended by the Swiss Film Center to work in the grass field workstation. Pete Ricky pursues deep expression, free, random footage and a rigorous, very structured film structure that fascinates everyone. This is a very professional video standards, but the pursuit of individual free expression of video works. As contemporary documentaries become more and more synonymous with “X-ray of social problems,” Pitt’s work embodies the freedom of individual expression to leave “big propositions” and at the same time make people realize that in today’s era, Personal problems and encounters are still the most specific and intractable problems. “ The so-called depth of expression is still ”people’s problems “. When I spoke with Pitt in my email, I said that I like his ”personal image“ work, and he replied that he would like to say that his work is ”photo essay." The album features five film productions from Pete Ricky at this year’s Crosstalk Workstation and a review of his work. It’s great to see Pete’s article dedicated to this album, which he wrote after he returned to Switzerland after finishing his workshop and screening of the grass field workstation.
