Haunted Splendor of Mr. Frost's Film



Beyond surreal and totally artistic this astounding time-lapse short film produced by Jeff Frost is captivating in its zooming portrayal of the haunted world we inhabit.

Like some fully formed ghost in a rainbow colored robe its sweeping juxtapositions of the heavens and the stark landscape captures the very essence and hypnotic beauty of the unseen world that is right in front of us and yet we don’t even notice.

Dimensional paintings of optical illusions created in abandoned houses only adds to the effect of creating a mirage woven of saturated light and frightening contrasts.

Mr. Frost's freaky sci-fi vibe is partly inspired by actual space science...one of his paintings draws its inspiration from a NASA diagram of evidence of The Big Bang of universal creation. 
 His soundtrack also includes sound clips recorded by the spacecraft Voyager 1.

Certainly try to watch this in full screen and Max HiDef to
 fully experience the films amazing visual nuances.

Forget the damn cat videos and rock bands. 
This is where social networks like YouTube really come alive and have some real artistic value. My advice? Watch this!
