***Film noir is a cinematic term used primarily to
describe stylish Hollywood dramas, particularly those which emphasize cynical
attitudes and sexual motivations. Hollywood's classical film noir period is
generally regarded as extending from the early 1940s to the late 1950s. Film
noir of this era is associated with a low-key, black-and-white visual style
that has roots in German Expressionist cinematography. ***

Here are stills from a proposal for an upcoming short
film project that deals with the underbelly of sexual encounters in the age of
social media, Grindr, Scruff and Tinder. These stories are usually told or
depicted through the eyes of those who took the initiative or in lay terms…
sealed the deal.

In this
instance, what you will see here are the behind the scenes from the other
“eyes” of the encounter; the preparation, the anticipation, the seduction and
the aftermath. The images are meant to evoke and provoke a dark and erotic side
of meeting someone you have never met before and probably never encounter again.
It is a black and white drama played out in the tradition of film noir as it
might be in the 21st century world of “hook ups.”
