Inspired by the overlayed photographic compositions that I made earlier in the semester, I wanted to make a version using the home video footage. I wanted to create a wash of images and sound, that blurred everything into one picture. For test one, I left all the video footage playing at the same transparency for the entire duration. For test two I wanted to experiment by bring certain clips into the foreground, and then recessing them back. This was to give the idea that memories fade in an out, creating a stream of conscious association. I also played with desaturating the collective memories, with the clearer memories having color. For the third experiment I slowed everything down to create a visual that was more amorphous and cloudy.
