TEXTPOP, 2min., USA
Directed by Samantha Olschan
Textpop is an experimental short that explores visible language, neurodivergence, and constructed meaning, through an innovative blend of color, imagery, and typography—texts, phrases, direct messages, fragments, lists. The animation, shifting every 2-5 seconds, mirrors our contemporary attention spans influenced by technology. The film invites viewers to experience text as a material, reflecting on information construction, retention, and delivery. It is a fractured poem, which meditates on grief, perception, and meaning, created without storyboarding or previsualization. Each scene developed in a continuous, unedited flow borrowing from the process of direct filmmaking and cameraless animation. Textpop investigates the interplay between digital animation, motion design, and traditional experimental practices.
