Project 4 - Sound

Artist Statement

I explored the idea of overlapping sounds. I showed different clips and pieces of the sounds that I heard and made throughout the day while at home. It would be kind of like a montage/time lapse sort of video because it would be everything I heard throughout the day except it is shortened into one video. I would try to show more than one video at the same time, including all the sounds from each video playing at the same time also. You will see up to 4 scenes being shown at once and you will also here those sounds that relate to the scenes. I'm hoping it will turn out to be like a collage of sounds/clips that combine and flow together. I'm also hoping the viewer can relate to some of the average sounds. These normal sounds when combined create rhythm and are turned into one extraordinary piece of work. At some point I made all the videos to stop and just have the overlapping sounds. I will also be playing the single sounds with a blank screen so the viewer can know how to relate the sound with a visual.

I had a lot of issues with this project. First I lost a large portion of my sounds, I think it was deleted by someone who did not want me to record them. The biggest event that happened when I was home was the crab fry and fish boil and it had A LOT of sounds I planned to use. With it being gone I had to just worked with the sound I had and focused on the sounds of coming home and then the sounds of being home. I hope I can make lots of improvements in the week we are aloud corrections.
