Create two videos that explore editing as the aesthetic subject. The second video will be a re-edit of the footage you used in your first video. Both videos will essentially provide the same message, but the experience of viewing them should be as different as possible due to the way they are edited.

You must attend the in-class screening of Pulp Fiction on October 28, as well as the screening of its chronological edit on October 30. Not attending either screening will automatically take off ten points for project 5.

To get a sense of what you could do, also consider the different examples we have reviewed in class, during online forum discussions, as well as examples provided to you during our critique for project 4. There will also be examples available for the lecture of October 28.

You need to share with class members your project idea by Wednesday, October 30, 2013, by posting it to the corresponding forum.

Technical/Formal Requirements:

• Both videos must be the same time, which can range from 30 seconds to 1 minute.
• You can use cinemagraphs if you like but this is not necessary.
• You must consider the rhythm in your editing as discussed in class critique. For instance, when you let a shot/image linger or not, it must be for a reason.
• The sound should be mixed in a way that it complements yet questions the video footage.
• You must have at least five scenes/shots to create a fairly complex montage.
• You can use any special effects you may want to add with any software of your choice. You will be graded this time on the quality of your video and lighting.
• You must mix your sound well and not go into the red.
• 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 are strongly encouraged to develop a piece that is critical of a subject of your choice such as politics, race, ethnicity, class difference, etc.
