Notes:

• Loads of people doing different things but none of them collide in what thier doing
• repition in what people do - the room and actions are constant
• the people influence each other without realising/meeting
• Blue screen - is the set a model/minature/toy? - very artificial, is it to scale? how would they co-oirdinate the people to fit the room.
• Is any of it needed/nessisary?
• Who are the people? - All the people whove lived in the room, All the things that have happened in the room, a day in 8 minutes?, people at different stages in life?

In lesson we watched Martin Arnolds video “Alone, life wasted, Andy Hardy”
Notes:

• Made into a rythem, like music
• Dehumanises the people, taking away from them as humans as they are no longer acting human - animalistic
• Made the medium of the video obvious - time based medium
• Taken away the cliche, hollywood scene, interupting time
• editing a specific part of film
• creating a point - changing how you percieve something

Made in Mr Kiff’s lesson were we were told to create an abstract video using a video from youtube and iMovie or FinalCut. I used iMovie, I used filters to create effects. Click on the title “Abstract Video?” to watch the video. Inspired by Hans Richter’s “Rhythmus 21”.

Subconscious Art of Graffiti Removal - Matt McCormick 

•  Made in the late 90’s
• Removing graffti by painting over it
• Stemming from a subconscious need to be creative? 
  - Kazimir Malerick
  - Mark Rothko  Both use a style that is similar to the graffiti removal images. 
  
  
•  Echos of shapes - appealing to subconscious, using strategies that are used in graffiti, makes you feel like everything relates.
