Experiencing the body
My project for this assignement will consist primarily of the use of green screen, a video camera and editing to create an illusion of movement through space. The effect that I intend to create is a vortex like experience where the camera continues to move in forward only to enter another image continuing this effect. A good example that is similar to my intended outcome is the music video by The White Stripes“Seven Nation Army”. Along with the green screen, I will have other green coloured materials and objects such as construction paper and clothing. I will hold, manipulate or wear these objects while standing in front of a green screen. The person manipulating the camera will begin from a long shot and physically bring the camera in forward towards me as I am holding or wearing a“mini-green screen”. As the camera approaches to the point where the green object is taking up the entire image, I will appear in the next image once again holding another “mini-green-screen” thus repeating the effect creating the vortex. I will create the video with editing software and project it in front of the class which will only require a screen projector connected to computer or a DVD player connected to a TV.
