Lumière and Company – Spike Lee

[VIDEO] Back in 1995, Spike Lee took part in a project entitled Lumière and Company where filmmakers such as Lee were to use the cinematograph camera – invented by the Lumière brothers – with these three rules in mind:

  1. A short may be no longer than 52 seconds
  2. No synchronized sound
  3. No more than three takes

I just found out that Lee will be in The Sixth Ward for an event at Chicago State University. Thinking about going but just haven’t decided yet!
