VIDEO ART





Here is my final.

Video Step Process:

1# The sticks are glowed sticks, and I put them in a glass vase, and basically moved them all over the place.  (Surprised how well the sounds matched with the visual imagery)

2# Pretty much turned off and on the lights.

3# I added Koolaid Mix (Yes Koolaid Mix Purple/Red) for added effects. It doesn't show, for I decontextualized the whole movie.

4# The Background noise is from a glass cup with mixed levels of water, and I chimed it with a spoon.

5# Also the flushing sounds (with echo) is the glass cup submerging itself in a rapid motion in a sink filled with water (Think like a plunger)

6# The Static sounds is me turning on the shower and turning it off.

7# Finally for visual effect, I decontextualized the image and basically changed the pixel contrast to destort it. (In other words, I used saturation, contrast, and exposure features)

8# All sounds were edited and rearranged in Garage Band.

9# Finally I used imovie to arrange the visual content, edit the piece, add music, and put the images together.


Thanks, I hope you all enjoyed the project.


Finally once again, I wish you all a great holiday and take care :)

  2. The filters you used were amazing, as well as the color choice. Everything just popped! The audio you made were crazy. I really thought it was a plunger! Tricky tricky!

  3. The glow sticks mixed with video filters gave an interesting effect. I also enjoyed the audio that you made from the cups and water. Very very good.

  4. Well done with the glowsticks. I liked the visuals that they produced but it wouldn't have been nearly as good if you didn't include the audio file that you created. Well done.

  6. the effects used to create your video work very well with the audio you were able to create. I was so surprised when i saw u used glow sticks, its weird how we had the same exact idea. I really enjoyed your video and what u were able to do with the glow sticks.

  7. You used the camera’s exposure limitations to create a beautiful and disturbing "video -painting". I love the visual elements; however, the soundscape you create is the best part.

    Great job.
