A Winnipeg filmmaker has an upcoming film featuring time-lapses of roadkill and fruits as they rot.
Joel Penner of Winnipeg has a knack for seeing the beauty in things most people would find disgusting.
The 28-year-old time-lapse filmmaker has developed a specialty in creating videos using time-lapses of animals, fruits, vegetables and flowers as they decompose. “I sort of had the idea from my lifelong love of plants to get into capturing time-lapses of decaying flowers and vegetables,” he told CTV News Channel on Wednesday. “I just had a lot of inspiration in that and it came pretty naturally to me.”
Penner has anywhere from 10-20 scanners running simultaneously in his basement studio as they capture fruit and vegetables decaying in a small dish of dirt and worms. “In I find these beautiful scenes of things like microbial growth happening and fruit fly larvae existing,” he said. “ things that you wouldn’t typically think of as beautiful, but when looked at in the right way, it’s pretty cool.”
