Man with a Movie Camera
The band were asked by the organisers of the Porto European City of Culture 2001 festival to write a new score to Dziga Vertov's classic 1929 Soviet Union film "Man with a Movie Camera," to be performed live in accompaniment with a showing of the silent film. The work differed from the band's usual compositions due to its live performance, ruling out the post production work that was present on "Motion." The Cinematic Orchestra toured the work and later released it as an album. Many of the compositions originally created for that album, "Man with a Movie Camera," were later adapted from live form (adding in vocal tracks and electronic elements, among other changes) for their next album, "Every Day". It reached #54 in the UK Albums Chart in May 2002.
