In our chat with Jo Willems about the fourth episode of 'Black Mirror' Season 7, 'Plaything', we took a thrilling detour into the minds of those who create the visual magic behind the screen. Jo, an engaging storyteller himself, painted a vivid picture of his long-standing partnership with director David Slade.
What's particularly intriguing is how Jo approached the dual timelines of the episode, threading together the past and future with a cohesive visual narrative that captures the emotional essence of the characters. He shared some delightful anecdotes about the technical challenges they faced, especially during the trippy sequences that required a creative use of lighting and camera work.
As we dive deeper into the themes of memory and reality, Willems articulated the complexities of shooting scenes that exist in the nebulous realm between truth and perception. His insights into how he balances the subjective nature of memory with the objective demands of cinematography added layers of depth to our understanding of the visual storytelling process.
