American filmmaker, cultural theorist, film, and digital historian Wheeler Winston Dixon created a short film, “What Comes Next”
by only using footage and soundtracks in the Public Domain or released with a CC0 license. What Comes Next is emotionally moving work. It takes you from somewhere and leads you to a different environment, and then does that again. It is open to interpretation for many eyes, and everyone can end the short with a different take.
It is not about stating the obvious or saying the same things what’s already been said. The short shows people don’t have to shoot new footage to say something new or different. He used these public domain materials and recycled, repurposed, and refashioned them. But What Comes Next has a more significant value and meaning above them.
What Comes Next gives you a reality check with the existential query
Also, philosophically “What Comes Next” is a very bold statement. It may refer to greed, hunger for achievements or failures, innocent missteps, striving for success, or it may be just a simple acceptance of the cycle of life.
When I put everything together, practically and theoretically, the short film offers so much to me. That’s why I can’t praise it more. It’s not about putting different footage and hoping them will make sense. Every scene adds something to the story, which covers both abstract and daily topics.
Wheeler Winston Dixon is a successful and long-lasting career in filmmaking and film theory. So, I don’t want to affect your opinion about What Comes Next if you don’t know him. But I suggest checking his work and career after you sink in the short. You can visit his website and Vimeo profile for more information.
