Salience

Shot on a slow motion specialized Phantom Miro camera, Salience is a surreal short about ethereal, barely visibile spirits crossing into a forest opening before being assailed by bursts of colored powder similar to those used in the colorful Indian festival of Holi (Festival of colors). Via this act they are given form and shape in this peaceful and somewhat clever short film directed by Paul Trillo. Filmed at about 1500fps, you can check out the rather technical making of after the break, breaking down exactly how they composited these invisible forest inhabitants into their setting.
