FASHION FILM
Nick Knight, founder of the SHOWstudio internet platform, believes that films that show a designer’s collection are the future of the fashion industry. He points out that when they create new designs, fashion designers are thinking about how these will look on a person who is in motion, how they will flow over the body. Both photography and illustration show projects in only two dimensions, and do not convey all a designer’s spatial ideas. The internet has created opportunities for reaching large audiences with a video message: the films that Knight promotes and creates tell stories inspired by clothing. They are not neutral presentations of dress, but artistic utterances, even though on his website one can also view live transmissions from the most important fashion shows.
