Boop's Concise Guide (2)


Another short movie in this series - hopefully hyrogliefs Boop will soon see the light, too. I expect to be getting better at this as I go along...
This Suitable Occupation for Girls is a bit of a mystery to me, too. Are we looking at a Martyr? A Witch? A Stunt Woman? You guess is as good as mine.
Most of the film is a shot of a 'moving painting'. The image of Boop burning is printed on special foil (which I found in Voorburg), attached to a glass plate, and set on a frame that I bought through Marktplaats in Delft, originally showing a Chinese waterfall. A simple yet ingenious mechanism behind the glass suggests the waterfall (and now the fire) is actually moving. And there still is an option to switch the bird-chirping-sound on, but since that seemed to go better with the waterfall than the stake, I decided to keep that switched off on this occasion.

For non-moving images, see Mz Boop's Concise Guide.
