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.

I think you had some really great angles especially at the beginning. I liked the way it started but the rest of it was too scattered. I understand the title ties it together but I did not think it was too visually appealing. i really had no idea what was going on or what you where trying to convey.

Good choice in music, I think it went really well with the imagery. However, I agree with Mary Ann the beginning seemed very promising and then the rest just felt very random and scattered. I think if you were trying to show "fragments" of every day life you should have shown the girl getting out of bed and then those images would have fit better because it's like she's seeing them through out the day. Nice compositions though, and I loved the one shot of the penny. The film just didn't seem cohesive and like it had a point or theme behind it.

The video was good. Great use of angles and sound. i really don't see what your getting at. Leave it based on one thing.

I liked the video but it was very strange and I didn't understand what exactly was going on. What were you trying to tell me? Interesting video nonetheless
