Seconds Of Arc - experimental music video

This is the experimental video I made that won Best Music Media at the 2006 Ffresh Festival. None of the images are computer created, they're all real things, disguised with camera techniques. The only manipulation was to enhance the colours, and to reverse/mirror/flip some images. Quote from festival booklet -
"Seconds of Arc was chosen because music and image are inseperable in creating the overall effect" said juror of this category Emyr Glyn Williams of Ankstmusik. "I loved the deeply mysterious images and the picture quality is also of a very high technical standard."

Deeply mysterious images! Yes, structures in this experimental movie are very, very mysterious and original! Good work!

[ledjarde]

Thank you very much for your comments! And there is no CGI either, all the images are real, they are just created using bad weather and filming techniques. Glad you liked it.

all of the music is pretty distorted... should put back beat more "sharpened" and it will look freshh

[ledjarde]

I know what you mean, it does sound a bit muffled....I wanted it to be a but this way, but maybe not quite this much!

[ledjarde]

Many thanks for all the kind comments, it's very much appreciated. For those interested, the video and music for 'Elements' has been completed. I just need to complete some editing, and will hopefully be able to post it pretty soon. Thanks again for your interest.

wow--beautiful! could you elaborate on the sound please?

[ledjarde]

sure...the sound was created in an attempt to make the images seem mysterious and other-worldly. I didn't want to use proper music as that would have ended up just being an accompaniment. I wanted the score to add to the overall effect. Thanks for looking and your interest. Check out 'Elements' which I'll be posting on here soon.

Thumbs up if this is something you would watch while high.

[TheAtonalRetentives]

I like the analog imagery. I am using similar techniques on some of my videos. You can get interesting results with light anf tin foil....

Great job! Reminds me of the Stargate sequence from 2001 A Space Odyssey. Mysterious and thought full at the same time.
