John wrote, directed and produced South Africa’s first music mockumentary ''Blu Cheez''. He next directed the music documentary ''Kwaito Generals'' produced by Kutloano Skosana of Black Rage, which focused on the stars who were at the forefront of the Kwaito movement of the late nineties and early 2000s.

He then wrote, produced and directed ''Bunny Chow'' which employed a retro scripting technique with the actors improvising their dialogue to communicate the outlined script written by Barker and David Kibuuka and later retro scripted with editor Saki Bergh. He is working on a second retro scripted film ''Wonder Boy for President'' with many of his collaborators from ''Bunny Chow''. His style is inspired largely by Larry David’s ''Curb Your Enthusiasm'', and notable directors who employ these techniques such as John Cassavetes, Christopher Guest, Robert Altman and Mike Leigh. ==Work== * ''Blu Cheez'' (2003) * ''Kwaito Generals'' (2003) * ''Bunny Chow'' (2006) * ''Cassette: Who do you Trust'' (2007) * ''Soccer: South of the Umbilo'' (2010) * ''31 Million Reasons'' (2011) * ''Spud 3 Learning to fly'' (2014) * ''Wonder Boy for President'' (2015) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「John Barker (filmmaker)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
