Blog Post 10

50% Critique


When we started this project (John and I) we had no idea what we wanted to do. The first major decision we made was that we wanted to use a video camera and work in some sort of movie editor, rather than altering a picture or collage in Photoshop+, which was my most recent project.  After many failed ideas, we decided to film random events or daily rituals that pertained to both of us (after all it is a group project). However, we didn’t think that this would be enough to base a project on so we started to think about gimmicks. Finally we decided to create clip that only made sense when they were played in reverse.
The immediate idea that we came up with was the construction of our engineering AEV (advanced energy vehicle), as well as its subsequent destruction. Because the product look the same initially as it does once it’s been broken down, it really doesn’t matter which way to look at the video.
