All Cows Eat Grass

This film is currently not available.   

Rhythmically chewing their meals, a herd of cattle creates interesting shapes, patterns, and movements in this “keyed” (a process of dividing areas of a black and white image into percentages of gradation) and colorized work. Laurie gnaws loudly on a carrot, dubbing the sound in post to the rhythm of a cow’s own chewing. The cow discovers the olfactory, tactile, and gustatory sensations offered by a Sony Portapak video camera. The colorizer was designed by engineer Larry Templeton, a pioneer in 1970s experimental video processing equipment.
