Project 3 - Supercut
Dumpster Fire
Artist Statement:Â
Originally, for this project I wanted to take cuts from my favorite Netflix show, Bojack Horseman of Bojack saying certain phrases. However, looking at a lot of my other work in this class and others, I noticed I tend to choose easy subjects that are not a challenge to work on, things that I know I can make look good or finish without any serious complications. I focus on silly, light-hearted subjects⌠things that the world could probably live without.Â
Something the world could live without but had to deal with anyways? The pandemic. 2020. Quarantining. I know that videos encompassing 2020-21 are out there, but we were given a supercut, 1 minute limit challenge. I decided to find clips from news videos of challenges and issue from 2020 as I could, and fit as many as I could into this project. Although I failed to keep my video to a minute (and ten seconds), I found it challenging to narrow it down to just that. I took out at least 5 other major events from 2020, and I was still sitting at a 1 minute and 45 second video. For context though, I started with around 6 minutes of recorded clips. All that being said, here we are, 2 years after that dumpster fire of a year started. Hereâs a look back on what we went through.Â
