48:00 to 0:00

Villanelle Number One

What filmless film could I create?
Without the camera snapping
Time clicks, what is my fate?

Unusual is the form
Thin is the air, a hand is grasping
What filmless film could I create?

 Race of the dawn is born
The heart accelerates its tapping
Time clicks, what is my fate?

What idea can be born?
A mind restless, immersed in napping
What filmless film could I create?

Like the sun blowing its horn
And the wind rapping
Time clicks, what is my fate?

What idea can be born?
Without the camera snapping
What filmless film could I create?
Time clicks, what is my fate?

48 Hour Video Ideas

Okay first of all this seems like it'll be FUN!!!!  Creating a film without any type of camera seemed bizarre when first reading the instructions, but whoever thought of a copy machine, scanner, or animation.  The only thing that I am worried about is the mystery prop.  Now I am just hoping that Andre does not bring anything that will, for example, make me cringe or make me run from the room screaming!  But hopefully the prop can be used in a more productive manner instead of scaring the living daylights out of me.

The idea I have for this video race, is to do some film manipulation, I find that is where my strength is, not that my work is better than anyone else's, but I feel more comfortable manipulating film than animating on film or even animation on the computer.  I have only taken 3D graphics so I can build a model, but making them move, lets just say that I am happy to have gotten out of 3D graphics and I swore I would never do something like that to myself again.
