Director BIO: Jola Kudela (TRAINS – RADIO CUT)
I was born in Poland and I now travel between Paris, London and Warsaw for various projects.
I graduated from the Lodz Film School PWSFTViT (Master of Fine Arts degree in Animation and Visual Effects) and completed my training at the department of animated film at CFT Gobelins in Paris.
I currently work as compo artist and visual supervisor.
it’s my first solo project that I’ve self-produced, directed, shot and post produced.
Maciek Kozlowski helped me with filming Poppy’s performance
Aga Gronowicz with editing.
ORKA let me use their edit facilities.
Severine Hamilton and Kola Calfos helped me to organise affordable lighting.
Jan, Ros and Doug showed me the most beautiful beaches in Norfolk and Suffolk.
Aga Lesiewicz helped me to organise and finance the project.
This project wouldn’t have happened without their help.
Short Film: TRAINS – RADIO CUT, 3min., UK, Music Video
music video
Everything is a form of vibration,
One needs to hear it and transform it into music
The world is a piano and the piano is the world
The musician becomes the creator of the world
Poppy Ackroyd is a British post-classical composer.
Her main instruments are the piano and the violin, but she doesn’t treat them in a classical way.
She creates her pieces by sampling sounds, beats and rhythms she generates by tapping the housing and strings of her instruments. She loops and records them, successively adding further layers of sound, until a new orchestral space is achieved. She completes this by adding the clean sound of a classical piano.
This process has inspired the narration of my film.
The world is seen as a vibration, and everything in it is seen as rhythm and repetition.
Nature pulsates, creating a transcendental pulse.
Poppy, as a Demiurge, responds to the rhythm or creates it herself.
Both worlds – elements of nature and the space within her instrument – coexist and filter through each other. This coexistence is reflected in the picture. Life is a journey and the strings, just like railway tracks, mark the direction. The world is enclosed in the piano, and the piano becomes the world.
The world vanishes when Poppy stops playing.
The film was created to promote Poppy Ackroyd’s single and her third album.
Both the film and the single ’Trains’ will premiere on nowness.com in November 2017. The album will be released by One Little Indian on the 26th of January 2018 in the UK, France, Germany, Japan and Australia.
The film has received a number of prizes and was shown at many short film festivals around the world.
