Ok - time for two videos tonight.
Nto because I don't feel like writing or that I'm trying to dodge a post, but I feel the following videos have the power to speak for themselves.
Let's start with the one that should make you peaceful. I'm not exactly sure why this film makes me so at ease, but I can point out the moments that I feel most relaxed are the shots of the assorted beach scenes and the rain failing into the water, shot below the waves.
What a scenes in particular do you like?
Under the clouds from Gioacchino Petronicce on Vimeo.
Alright, so now that I have you all relaxed and in a serene state - let me mess with you a bit. I'll take that world you're currently in a flip it on its head. Let's add some chaos, a little mischief, and a whole lot of energy.
I know I've spoken about OK Go before and how wonderfully creative their videos are (if you don't remember - back track on my blog a bit to find some) and per usual, their newest one doesn't disappoint.
I'm not going to give it away because I want it to do the talking for itself, but it should remind you of a kaleidoscope.
And yes - the video/dance in interactive. So, watch until the end of the video, visit the website, and make a video of your own!
The first video - yes, there was a sense of serenity throughout it. I, too, was drawn to the water shots, and also to the time lapsed clouds.
ReplyDeleteI think you might have been biased when you watched it, since Paris is one of the locations! I wonder if the beach scenes were at Meghan's Bay - it looked familiar!!! I was most serene when the soundtrack was water noises.
Good one, Drew!
The OK Go video - this may be the coolest video I have ever seen! It is SO creative, so visually stimulating, and I am AMAZED at the shots. You have taught me to look for editing, length of shots, etc. I would love to speak with the person who actually came up with the idea!!!
ReplyDeleteCool beans, Drew!
ieyu, ilys!
