The following thesis is adapted from screenplay format. The
document from which it derives serves as a shooting script
for a film/video called A World Without You . The shooting
script contains explicit scene description, camera set-ups
that include angle and lens choices, dialog, and
transitions - all the relevant instruction needed for
anyone to reproduce the film with explicit similarity to
its original. The thesis reflects a series of short videos
I completed as research. In their finished state, the
series of videos coalesce to a single film/video with a
sixty-two-minute running time. That conglomeration emerged
as a “shadow” or “inversion” of a twenty-minute, singlechannel
video loop called Intermission For Deleted Acts,
which served as centerpiece to my thesis exhibition. The
script navigates themes of environmental catastrophe,
companionship, survival, surveillance, and art practice.
The following thesis attempts to keep the screenplay
formatting intact to communicate both its functionality and
aesthetic quality.
