BloodLight (Draft 1) is an impressionistic depiction of vampires in real life, hungry and sensual beings among inky shadows. The vampires are observed in a document which blurs the distinction between fictional narrative and video documentary. Picking up on the reinvigorated interest in vampire mythology in the last 10 or so years (Twilight, Let the Right One In, etc..), BloodLight investigates this mythology from a perspective that is scaled down, sensual, and existing in shadows of our day to day. The vampire performers are Cameron Gibson, Claire Arctander, and Todd Mattei. As artists themselves, they live just outside the full exposure of 9 to 5, familial life.

Todd Mattei: Bio Todd Mattei is a media artist working in animation, video, music, performance, the written word, and the spaces in between these discrete media. Todd has screened and exhibited throughout the US and abroad, made records with several notable music groups, and toured and performed throughout the US, Europe, and Japan. www.toddmatteiart.com
