The PREPARATORY phase (07/2022) included preparation of the material captured originally for Future Landscapes (KU-CA1-068), selection and categorization and the sound and visual concept of the film was prepared and the rough cut was created. The OFFLINE EDITING phase (07-08/2022) included directorial and editing work. The first final cut was consulted with a Norwegian theorist I.S.Straume. - During the ONLINE EDITING phase (09/2022), the directorial, editor, cinematography and sound works were done. - In the PREPARATION TO DISTRIBUTION phase (10-12/2022), the film trailer in CZ&ENG was created.
