The film begins calmly with a serene domestic set-up, building pace as the race begins, cutting between the training day and the marathon. At points which demonstrate the intensity of running, a special zoetrope effect is used, breaking down the movement of running into paused actions, reflecting the rhythm of the action--the steady thumping of shoes on gravel, a beating heart, breathing. The piece is shot solely on Super 8, edited to emulate both the excitement of the daughter as an observer and the adrenaline of the participant. With a soundtrack of enhanced natural noises, Girl Blue Running Shoe is an evocative celebration of the human body whilst also telling the simple story of a father-daughter relationship. It was launched at the in The Long Run Exhibition at The Great North Museum and screened on BBC1 and at Corona Cork Film Festival 2011. Written by Dog Eared Films See less
