HAI-KU

Using static footage to relate to a poem of seventeen syllables wasn’t as easy as I thought. Most of the haiku poems didn’t seem to relate to the footage I filmed, so I had to resort to other captured footage. After clicking a few links here and there, I came across this:

Black & White Haiku

Life in us is a

mix of black and white moments

sun shines for us all

Since the point of the exercise was to play around with Adobe Premiere Pro, I decided to focus on the aspect of colour, thus black and white.
Interestingly enough as I was going through the uploaded videos, I came across three videos that captured two different perspectives of the same scenario that was able to reflect the “moments” that the haiku suggests. Moreover, three different angles captured the State Library ceiling, so I decided to incorporate transitions to give the illusion that it they were all shot in one set of footage.
