Abstract
What happens when the world stops as if someone had pressed pause on a projector?<br/><br/>How does a filmmaker / visual artist react to this moment in time - to the first Lockdown?<br/><br/>More Than Time is a short, experimental film, shot in Liverpool and created from photographic stills and captures this frozen moment in time by collating anonymous voices on an answering machine. The voices reflect on what we took for granted and now miss greatly. <br/>It fuses evocative images with a stirring soundtrack and spoken-word reflections.<br/>The monotony and blandness of undifferentiated days that seemed like “less than time”, is re-imagined as a period of transcendent “more than time” in this arthouse, micro-documentary.<br/><br/>A sonic collage converts the imagined into a sensory journey. The film’s sound design features ghostly reminders of what sounds used to be there, a sonic impression of a time gone, an echo of the past. <br/><br/>This cultural power cut became the inspiration for Covid promulgation, a sort of pandemic, Dogme manifesto? The film is made in a way that mirrors the lack of connection with people.<br/>The filmmakers never meeting fellow collaborators. The film is a visual metaphor for <br/>the process as much as its narrative is about memory.<br/><br/>The past is a place we visit when we feel lost, the film attempts to reconnect us with the familiar by reminding us of this. It is not a film about boredom but a love letter to a place and a time that was on pause. It is a poetic response, imagined through film.<br/><br/>National and International film festival screenings<br/><br/>Cheltenham Film Festival<br/>Mobile International Film Festival Macedonia.<br/>Oakville Film Festival Toronto<br/>Birmingham film and television festival<br/>Sunday shorts festival London and portugal<br/>Cinequest film and VR festival San Jose<br/>Scrittura e Immagine short film festival Italy<br/>British Documentary Film Festival<br/><br/>

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
