1000 words<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The musicians Briet and Birnir are familiar to most people, but they brought their horses together with the release of a new album at the beginning of the summer entitled 1000 words. The short film of the same name has emerged from the album and was made in collaboration with Icelandair and the production company Sensor. As mentioned, Erlendur Sveinsson was in charge of the direction and script of the film, which has been chosen as one of the two opening films of this year's RIFF festival.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u201e<\/strong>I enjoy working with musicians a lot to create a visual world around their music. The music always grows when you have a strong visual world connected to it and this form is so incredibly free\u201c, says Erlendur in a review regarding the release of the film this summer.<\/p>\n

Erlendur has a diverse career behind him in filmmaking. He has directed dozens of music videos for a large number of musicians in Iceland, but his music video for \u00c1sgeir Trausta's song was nominated for an award <\/span>Camera<\/span> Image festival in Poland There are many things ahead for Erlendi but on his short film Moon Pie Vanilla <\/em>was shown at the Nordisk Panorama Film Festival recently.<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
