A Brief Statement

The majority of my work in the realm of video will focus on memory, dreams, perceptions, and time.

I want to explore what happens when reality is inconsistent, when people speak without talking, and when the waking world is invaded by the unconscious mind.

Enjoy.

There were a few parts that were confusing to me. I think the effects were a little too much. Maybe not so much of them. It was very creative and the music went well with your video. Especially at the beginning when the song was first starting out.

i thought it was amazingly interesting. It was very abstract but not to the point where you did not understand exactly what was going on. the message of the film seemed deep. I really like how you overlayed shots and used effects and the fact that you did not use too much color. Good acting as well.

I really had no idea what was going on. I think you had some really great angles in the beginning and it looked really cool but then it just got weird. I really wasn't fond of the overlap of images I thought that it gave a different feel from what was happening in the beginning. I didn't really like the switch with some of the overlapped images in color either. I think if you just cut out the parts with the overlapped images or even just choose different images to overlap it would have looked a lot better.
