Research and Observation exercise: Observation

Our mission was to observe a place and create a piece. Extra marks for
extracting some sort of emotion or narrative from out of the 'found footage.'


I hung around a 'mallified' section of Sydney city.


Took shots of the people, and there was some sort of marquee being constructed so took some shots of that too.

Observation and Research: Observation exercise


First
time mixing time-lapse and full motion, first time mixing in a bit of
voice into the audio. We all presented 'rough cuts' and the class
commented.


Someone suggested that I add poetry so I made some up.


Mixed in some of the city noise that the Sony's internal mic picked up while filming.

Time lapse created with the Ricoh GX100 (wish Ricoh would get around to releasing the GX300) and a Sony video cam for the 25fps.

  1. I like this. The introduction in particular was a nice way to capture the place just before it woke. I did enjoy your little spying moments on the small social interactions of people and, I'm curious to see how you could use that time-lapse/full motion technique in future pieces. So for first time mixing, not bad at all :-)

  2. Thanks.
    The teacher pretty much gushed when I presented :-)

    A mate wondered what it would be like if I was able to smoothly change the speed of the capture from timelapse to full motion and back again.
