The idea of a creating my own 2 minute clip on a person of my choice is very exciting. Project brief 3 is further developing my conceptual ideas from the self portrait video, but using more advanced technology and actually having more of an archive to use in terms of footage and sound. I’ve decide to focus my short video on a close friend of mine, not only because this will be easier in terms of scheduling and comfortability but also because i’d like to present my own version of this person and project it onto the screens of others. I’d love to make this clip a witty and fast paced video that fully encumbers the comical nature of my friend. I am fully invested in the idea of interviewing and heightening all the natural comedic elements (that hopefully will come out of the interview)in order to create a sense of hilarity. As the use of ‘found footage’ is a necessary constraint of this project, I’ve been looking into the archival footage on archive.org, and its difficult to narrow it down to the type of footage i’d actually want. A vast amount of footage is easily accessible but i’m finding it tough to decide how ill intwine this into my ‘documentary’ type video. I need to further explore exactly where i want to go with project brief 3.
