I was most impressed with Derrin's play between the real and surreal, blending them together, forming a strange new reality. The moment in "At Land" where she is climbing the tree and them, she has climbed up onto the party where see discovers the man playing chess is a great example of this. As surreal as this idea is, at no point did I question that it had happened, or that it could. Also, in Meshes in the Afternoon, the moment where the shadow reaches for the flower and for a moment, it appears to be holding it plays with the same idea.
From a more basic film point of view, her camera angles are really great, especially the way she shows angles of doorways and walls (usually tilted, creating strange angels)
At land is also eerily similar to the movie that I'm turning in today. that was surprising!
