Chameleon was filmed in San Francisco and in Lake Tahoe. Once again, as in Fragments, the film maker was interested in a formal circular pattern for his film, with a protagonist who wakes again and again from a nightmare. Like Fragments it combines dream imagery with realism, but here the combination of movement and inter-cutting is more prominent. Production values on this film were minimal - a hand held camera and a few actors on location in San Francisco and Lake Tahoe. The actor, Jean-Yves Pitoun, became a screen writer and director in Los Angeles. (American Cuisine)
