This week we were shown some experimental video to help us with our next project. Below is ‘Signer’s Suitcase’ or rather, exploding stools (glad I didn’t sit down for that one). What is interesting in the form here, is despite the violence of the chair shooting out of the windows, there is a playful elasticity to it.
Likewise, in the second video, the obnoxious sound of someone snoring is given something it already has…amplification.
Robbie highlighted one of the student’s, Emily Mitresvski, blog, ‘Don’t show what you like, show what you’re like.’ Yes, a point to take note of. It’s easier to point out the things you enjoy but more difficult to demonstrate your personality.
In regards to our second project which is a one minute piece on ourselves using new footage. This includes sound and video. We were advised to upload it up to vimeo and familiarise ourselves with the AV department. Sound footage is to be raw and experimented with.
A daunting to prospect. How do I portray myself within one minute?
