At One View is one of two shorts in Volume 5 of The International Tournee of Animation directed by Paul De Nooijer. The other one is I Should See. Two men are sitting in a chair reading newspapers. Then, through stop-motion photography, we see the chairs moving with the men still sitting down. The men stop to face us. They are now showing photos of each others faces in front of their own. The photos are now moving, again through stop-motion photography. Then we see slides of these photos shuffling automatically. This and the other scenes mentioned above continues for about 5 minutes. Then, at the end, the narrator, who's been speaking all this time, mentions how photography is basically trickery as we see the two men disappear in thin air. The end. Interesting if a bit pretentious, At One View is certainly worth seeing once as an experiment in stop-motion.
