Due: Monday, October 17, 2016

Develop two video compositions that explore the relation of image and sound. The second video will be a re-edit of the footage you used in your first video. Both videos will consist of the same footage edited in different order. For each video you must use different sounds that give each video a different mood or sensibility. For instance, if one is appears frantic, the other could be melancolic, or one is ambiently pleasing, the other could be claustrophobic. Their sensibility should not necessarily be binary, but can be thought of as different, or complementary.

Technical/Formal Requirements:

• Both videos must last the same time, which can range from 30 seconds to 1 minute.
• Both videos must use the three basic shots: wide, mid, and close-up
• You must consider the rhythm in your editing as discussed in class critique. For instance, when you let a shot/image linger, it must be for a reason.
• The sound should be mixed in order to appear as a "reflexive" partner of the image.
• You must have at least five scenes/shots to create a fairly complex story.
• You must mix your sound well and not go into the red.
• You will be graded this time on the quality of your video and lighting.
• You must shoot your own footage, but you can use some pre-existing material if it is necessary for your idea. (Go over this option with the instructor before moving ahead.)
• You can use any special effects you may want to add with any software of your choice, if you have this knowledge.
• You are encouraged to develop a piece that is critical of a subject of your choice such as politics, race, ethnicity, class difference, etc.
