Cognacq-Jay
video installation / 2006
Night News on TV5 Monde channel shot
in the (now closed) historical Cognacq-Jay Studios
in Paris, France, on May 13th, 2006


For the installation, the monitor is placed facing the wall in a way that requires the viewer to wedge themmselves between the wall and the screen in order to watch the video.
An experiment on representing over-represented content, the video shows a recording of the news through a different point of view than the usual TV camera representation. The process makes changes to:
- the camera angle — High
- the depth of field — Short
- the exposure — Contrasted
- the editing — Uncut take.
This process attempts to show the news in a more intimate way, somewhat closer to a cinematographic format. Physically placed behind the anchorwoman, the viewer shares her optical situation: her steady and controlled movement at the helm of this ultra-conventional format.
