09.27.2009 8mm film project: First draft

link to YouTube video

Shot on Super 8mm in Bath, UK in January 2009 and edited using a computer process (Max/MSP/Jitter) that analyzes the song in realtime and makes editing decisions based on parameters of the music.

This is more or less Version 1.0. I made some important changes over the weekend that make sections develop over time instead of staying static, and it added a lot of life to the final product.

There are about a billion other things I want to do with this, and I'd love to hear any reactions or comments anyone has to this.

The song is Sorely Missed by the really super fantastic band The Cedar. Their album I'm Always Explaining to Mom How It's Different Here is available on iTunes but of course DRM stinks and you should get it from Amazon or best: a live show!
