Project 5 Vanishing and Becoming
Artist Statement:
In this video I used methods of travel from car to bike as well as eyes from animal to human and father to daughter. As a father I’ve become more aware of time passing and the idea of passing on knowledge and experience, I see parts of myself dissolving as my focus in life moves from myself onto my daughter. The tunnel used in the video was used as an element to describe transition or transformation. The movement via bike and car are just used to embellish the idea of the passage of time.
I used this video to experiment as I am relatively new to shooting video and wanted to see what kind of effects I could make use of that might improve the overall video. Since I am not a musician but I did not want to sample existing music I used slowed down ambient audio captured from a park near my house. I hope the video organization flows together. Any notes positive or negative are welcome.
