Chris Marker, Chat écoutant la musique (Cat Listening to Music), 2:47 min, color, sound 

From Chris Marker's collection Bestiaire aka Petit Bestiaire (1990), consisting of three 'video haikus': “Marker fans are familiar with the cartoon representation of Guillaume-en-Egypte, Marker's beloved pet cat, which has become the reclusive filmmaker's alter ego. In this charming short, Marker reveals the real-life Guillaume, stretched out lazily in the filmmaker's apartment, as he listens to the lilting rhythms of a piano sonata by Federico Mompou."

Tito & Tita - Director's Cat  Philippines, 2013, 2', 16mm to SD video   “Tito & Tita are a film and art collective from the Philippines whose work spans installation, film, photography and collective actions. Centrally concerned with possibilities of photographic media and its various histories, their name Tito & Tita is the Tagalog for 'uncle and aunts', suggesting an informal network of artist collaborators. Director's Cat is a hand-processed 16mm, sitting between a home movie, discarded take or screen test, the film is balances between a captured off-hand moment and a staged scene.”
