Telling lies review

TELLING LIES is a short film with various telephone conversations going about a night before, it comes up with the words other than an image.
the conversations shows what the actuall person is thinking other than what he says .
there is only one main person to the story but it shows about his wild night on the raz and how
him and his girl friend cheated on each other.
the audio is non diagetic,type comes up very fast so you need concentrate on the type alot but it doenst make viewing uncomfterble.

telling lies is highly entertaining and different
worth a watch.

THE GIRL CHEWING GUM is also very different,it seems although the main man speaking is directing the scene,
but after a while its obvious that its a pre recorded scene and the man is saying what people are doing so the audio is non diagetic.
its more easy to understand if your watching the film you cant get a better feel for concept.

1001 NIGHTS REVIEW

1001 nights is a very parculiar video, its shows a black background with five women standing with their eyes closed telling you storys.

its still hard for me to put my finger on what the actuall point of the short film was but is worth a watch just to see what you think.

koyaanisqatsi review

1983 film koyaanisqatsi directed by godfrey reggio is a fantastic film full of remakable shots
that leave the viewer in disbelief of how its done, this film is all about the pace.
the film starts slow gets faster midway through and settles downtowards the end.

(A movie with no conventional plot: merely a collection of expertly photographed scenes. Subject matter has a highly environmental theme) << WWW.IMDB.COM

the music is also very important in this film due to their being no dialouge.

overall a very enjoyable watch i would deffinately reccomend it if you looking for something different.

Hello people these are three of my photos from the photgraphy trip to brighton last friday(19/9/08).
These are three of my favourite so i decided to share them.
We were asked to capture the gritty side of brighton so the most relevant photo to this is the bins at the back of the pub (restraunt or club ).
I particually like this one because of its gritty dirty side to it, its a shame it wasnt dark and didnt have a camera with light and dark mode because i think it would of made the photo more enjoyable to look at and more relevant.
The stencil on the pillar is also one i really like just because of the color and the bard wire going across the face.
As for the joker shot it just looked good to capture and freeky also.

My expectations of experimental video

I believe experimental video to be more about the creative side of video production,seeing as there is no wrong answer (to an extent)im going to let my mind run away.
Experimental video does exactely what it says in the title its all about experimenting in and around video production ,most people would of thourght of art as they read this ,but it doesnt have to be artistic atall, it just has to be experimenting with camera angles or just being different (out the ordinary and original).
It also is about learning new tequniques with cameras and equiptment and being creative .
creative and experimental work from my point of view is things such as stop motion and animation these are what i believe to be experimental video.
