Working Video, a video work CIL 2007 graduate Jolene Mok (Mok Chung-Ling) adapted from her FYP, had been selected for two festivals in Europe.
The work is a quotation of three works Jolene did in her “Micro-Narratives” class, then turned into the hands of a school-mate in the NMI studio who responded to her works with another short video. Working Video therefore embeds 4 different short video pieces into two young women’s discussion about questions of artistic creation plus footage of their collaboration process.
XVI edition of Sguardi Altrove Film Festival (Milan, Italy).
Her video was screened in the Cinema Gnomo session.
