The Take away shows are la Blogotheque’s first video podcasts.
Every week, we invite an artist or a band to play in the streets, in a bar, a park, or even in a flat or in an elevator, and we film the whole session. Of course, what makes the beauty of it is all the little incidents, hesitations, and crazy stuff happening unexpectingly. Besides, we do not edit the videos so they look perfectly flawless, instead we keep the raw sound of the surroundings. Our goal is to try and capture instants, film the music just like it happens, without preparation, without tricks. Spontaneity is the keyword.
The Take away shows exist since April 2006. There was Chryde, who wanted to shake things up and find another way to share music, and there was Vincent Moon, who wanted to film music differently. Chryde offered Moon to go and film musicians in the city, Moon seized the idea and glorified it. Since then, other directors across the world joined this project, and we plan to extend it worldwide.
The team:
Chryde - Founder, Art producer Vincent Moon - Founder, Director
Editors : Lucas Archambault / Nathanaël Le Scouarnec / Timothée Deirex

Vincent Moon (real name Mathieu Saura, is an independent filmmaker from Paris mainly known for having created a little revolution in the relationship between cinema and music, with his field work music videos of indie rockrelated musicians as well as some notable mainstream artists like Tom Jones, R.E.M. or Arcade Fire. Besides making music videos he also makes experimental films and documentaries. His 2009 film, La Faute Des Fleurs about Japanese singer Kazuki Tomokawa won the Sound & Vision Award at the film's world premiere at CPH:DOX - the Copenhagen International Documentary Festival - in November 2009. He has been living on the road since January 2009, experimenting on nomadic cinema and traveling to film rare musicians around the world. He now works alone or with people he finds on the road, and most of the time without money involved in the projects, trying to redefine the limits of cinema in the 21st century. In 2011 he will begin work on his new collection of recordings, Petites Planetes, dedicated to experimentation between images and sounds, shot around the world.
