Machina – The Silent Distance

Sound Recordist & Photographer – Syvian

Machina is a short film that explores memory, control, and the fragile space between intimacy and surveillance.

I handled sound recording and on-set photography, capturing the film’s subtle exchanges, gestures, and pauses. Selected images were also used to create the film’s poster, extending its restrained tension and quiet rhythm into a single, composed frame.
