The core idea of the Pleix collective was to make a film without filming anything but finding everything on the internet.
The goal was not to make something looking too sci-fi or “geeky” but something more subtle and with a twist. The space shuttles are just a pretext to build a story.
Actually, it’s more a sort of modern safari shot by a visitor with his smartphone. The bus footages are coming from the real place: the Kennedy Space Center Bus Tour in Florida and the smoke sequences are coming from car burnouts festival in Canberra. In terms of editing and narration, the big challenge was to find enough material with a consistent quality: a lot of interesting stuff was shot with a cloudy sky, or only available in low resolution or shot vertically… It was like doing archaeology on Youtube: trying to find the most hidden footages by typing a shit load of keywords, in different languages or by geo-localisation only.
