Wind Series 1 of 2
In a particularly calm mood while searching for video footage to complete this assignment, I explored an area walking-distance from campus. My mood was relaxed but, do to the gusting wind, my hair was not. And this became my inspiration. Every which way I turned my hair would not settle, would not slow down. The waving, shaking, slashing movements, therefore, creates a sense of unease and hurry.
Assignment #4: Experimental Video
Wednesday, February 18th, 2009PART ONE
Write a comment on three of your colleagues final stop motion video posts. Please respond to comments on your own work. Please offer constructive criticism and justify your thoughts. Avoid using language like “I like…” or “the work is really great.” Your comments should be descriptive and thoughtful, as if you are critiquing work for a journal. See the art reviews in Frieze Magazine for reference.
PART TWO
Make two one-minute videos: one in which time appears to be moving quickly, the other in which time appears to be moving slowly. (Consider using a tripod. Make a third one minute video of your choice. (All videos must be exactly one minute or 60 seconds.)
This unit asks you to express emotional qualities of your choice by creating a rhythm and/or procession of events through editing. Use as material for your video your physical self in space, possibly in relation to objects, props, processes or movements. Sound must be self generated. You may use drawings, but only as a prop. You may not shoot your film in your dorm or dorm room.
NOTE: You will need to share cameras for this assignment. You are free to use each others footage, but must create your own videos.
