"Three Transitions" and "Vertical Roll" provided interesting displays of how camera placement and use can create unique creative opportunities, something which can be employed by us in our projects. "Electronic Linguistic" and "Windows" were two I enjoyed because there were moments in which what I was seeing was not really what I was seeing, especially in "Electronic Linguistic". No doubt there is a certain level of artistic ability and craftsmanship that goes into it as well as patience to allow it to happen, but it is something we can take away.
"Art of Memory" was interesting for its use of the real and the fabricated (and a world with its own set of realities and myths) and this is something that I would like to try. I know there's green screen and all that good stuff, but I would rather try to take another approach because part of what I liked about "Art of Memory" is that it wasn't trying to hide the fabricated from the real (at least in my mind) and green screen, though it is amazing what you can do with it, does seem to be trying to hide (unless it's a parody, of course).
Though I don't have any solid ideas yet, I would like to take self-created characters or objects and place them in real and/or fabricated settings and see what happens. I know, very loose idea. I'll work on it!
