Video Emulation
Pertaining to Portland
Original Video: Jim Davis - Pertaining to Chicago (1957) The time where Davis shows mostly buildings starts at about 6:26.
For my interpretation, I sped up the images I shot to show how life since 1957, when Davis's version was made, has speed up. Also, the audio in my piece is a combination of the audio in the original piece and audio I collected when shooting the footage for my version. I thought that the audio should go along (to some extent) with where the footage was shot. I shot my footage in Portland, OR. For those who don't know, Portland is a wacky place with bizarre people and always something interesting going on. The main things I enjoyed in Davis's piece, also reasons I chose it, were the simplicity and the audio. Everything seemed to flow together and the movement from building to building led into the music nicely. My piece illustrates Portland in the same way Davis's illustrates Chicago.
Zop Tie Cat Zune
Original Video: Bill Brand - Zip Tone Cat Tune
I loosely interpreted this video. The colors and constant movement were most appealing to my eye but didn't want to overdo it because I still wanted to see the cute cat, for obvious reasons. The original video had no sound and became very boring and hard to watch so in my version, I added a collection of interesting sounds and music. I tried to give the cat a voice, the british woman describing her morning and then later a man claiming he just dances the way he feels. I always found the term "cool cat" funny so I thought I'd make light of it! Hope you enjoy!
