Abstract Video Ideas

Our ideas for our next project was due today. Woop woop.

Eh. I've changed my mind about 4 times already, but I think I finally have the basis for it. I'll need one HUGE and TALL light, one small light, night time, and an actor/actress. It will most likely be in black and white; I just think it looks good. Simple, but still complex elements.

The story behind it is what every college student goes through, at least once. I know I deal with it daily. To get into Millsaps we each had to be the best and push ourselves. Sometimes it was our parents pushing, our peers, our teachers from high school or even now the professors here. Working constantly, don't pause don't relax don't forget don'tbreath workworkwork. Usually we can overcome these normal college stresses. Sometimes though, for a few, it becomes too much.

Let Them Know: The Story of Youth Brigade and BYO Records

Last night the documentary was about the punk rock "scene," and I found it mildly interesting. Was it my cup of tea? Nope. Was it well edited? Yep, you bet.
Jade and I had wondered what program he used to create the film; it had great visuals, but you could tell that it wasn't created by some mega-fancy studio/program. No Warner Bros. here. I was actually surprised that he had used Final Cut Pro. We are using that in our little dinky videos and here he is with an entire movie created with it. Wow.
I found it a wee-bit long, even though it was barely an hour and a half long. Maybe I just needed some coffee, who knows.

El Lugar Errante de Tinta

Here's the copy I turned in on 9/21/09. I've heard many interpretations of the video, some I had never thought of until they came up in discussion Monday. Make of it what you will...

Rough cut music video

Here's the rough cut of the music video. It needs a fair amount of tweaking, I know.

Abubn, aka Aubin

Here's the Self Portrait, hopefully I didn't do it wrong, but knowing me I probably did. Oh well, at least I tried. BTW, thanks Jade for helping me overcome my technology phobia. :)
