All That You Change

This short horror film investigates how a camera’s modal qualities shape the experience of horror. Shot on an older, lower-quality camera, the film deliberately withholds the narrative justification that found footage films typically provide — leaving the visual degradation unexplained, the ghost’s relationship to the camera ambiguous. The texture of the image itself becomes the source of unease. Drawing on a tradition of films that embrace camera reality — The Blair Witch Project, REC, Paranormal Activity — the work asks its audience to question the nature of what they are watching, and how the camera’s capacity to distort reality deepens immersion in horror.
