Timeline Video

For this piece we were to put video and song together to ultimately create a music video. I chose an instrumental rock song that displays layers of sound building on top of each other. I was intrigued by this idea and wanted to project the same through the video. I am really interested in the ability cameras have to slow down or speed up content (time lapse) in which the naked eye cannot conceive by itself. I used slow motion capture and time lapse video clips as contrast to one another to correlate with the music as it started to pick up during the latter part of the song. I also retrieved clips from a French experimental DVD that helped with my visual layers. Thanks to Google Video, Archive.org, and Vegas 6.0.

Song choice: This Will Destroy You - Quiet

Performance Piece

This is my performance piece for the class. My intentions for this video was to show how "couch traveling" isn't as significant or as meaningful as actually traveling itself. I wanted to portray how an image is under the hands of an editor and can sometimes (most likely) distort reality and present faulty interpretations of what it really is like to experience traveling. Things such as static and watermarks get in the way of organic experience. I wanted it to mostly be an influential piece to inspire one to get up and out of the house. Thanks to Google Video, Getty Images, and Resolume.
Song used: Eluvium - All the Sails

Cinemash-up: Footloose Dynamite

2007-06-06T16:00:00.000-07:00

For this assignment I chose to mix the trailer from Footloose and Napoleon Dynamite. I found the Footloose trailer soundtrack on video.google.com and used scenes from the Napoleon Dynamite DVD to present a whole different movie. I used Vegas 6.0 to construct the piece.
