I'm not there yet: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 14:32, 28 March 2019

This project started as an impulse when I experienced insomnia and got bored. Not knowing what to do with myself and the extra time I have because of my insomnia, I decided to film myself.

When I observed the results and spoke about my findings in a tutorial with David, he noticed that my critiques about what is and isn't working in the image could be in a way the narrative of my project. I mostly criticize the poses if they look either real, fake, too constructed or too vulnerable. This is interesting to me because I am the person in the image. The boundaries between the camera, the operator and the subject become blurred.

A small piece I wrote:

First recording looked very posed it was not good yet, fake. Second recording was more natural already better. I want to keep recording until the footage is good enough. Because I'm not there yet.
