final postCard

My final image for a series of postcards that will be used to promote our thesis projects. The repeated square images represent how the videos can be seen in many places simultaneously via web video.

After mocking this up in Photoshop, I think it'd be better to create the collage in reality, and photograph it. What do you think?

FCP Screen Image

For all you nerdy Final Cut Pro users out there, here's a screen grab of the Machine timeline.

Machine

Developed a method of editing that allows me to arrange frames of video into a rhythmic pattern.

Visa

My Russian Visa arrived last week - great opportunity to make some films outside of UM campus! I've noticed that many video artists shoot video abroad. The avenues of foreign countries make the resulting pieces seem even less familiar.

I'm going to provincial Russia.

Figure with Advising Dialogue

Incorporating a discussion with my advisor. How do you advise a student who won't succeed?

Piping or I'm too Sad to Tell You

Inspired by video artist Ken Jacobs, A&D Penny Stamps lecturer 22nd March 2007 (Kate West: "feels like Spring!"). Other lectures are archived at the video resources library in the Art, Architecture, and Engineering library. http://guides.lib.umich.edu/profile.php?uid=5926

Sunrise

Using video to manipulate time.

twoSides

Simulating depth in the studio.

Colored Paper

Draw

A literal giving of self.

Silhouette

Audio from Lake Discussion dubbed over a sequence where the camera transitions from an outdoor environment to an indoor one.

Combination No. 1

Continued experimentation with the Lake Discussion material.

Snow Walk

Figure is literally "on thin ice" in this student video art piece.

Window Discussion

A second iteration of the lake discussion. The major video - sitting in the snow - has a surreal look due to the calm actions of the figure and the obvious disparity in the cold weather.
