Magic still
Shot some test footage in my newly expanded (to fit HD format and the chance to use my top hat drawing) stage last night and I have to say, I’m loving the new camera. Even this still pulled from a compressed file has some pretty sweet clarity. It’s easier to figure out then the French iron I used to press my shirt.
I’m unable to post actual footage yet because of the enormous file size and my miniscule capacity to figure out compression solutions without making it a muddy mess. That’s OK because I’m also hesitant to post any video until it’s done.
Still teases are fine.
It’s potential success is so dependent upon it being a complete series of unfolding vignettes/illusions that link and reference each other to build a subtle, problematic narrative that hopefully elevates it beyond a singular, digital parlor trick. I’m fine with waiting until it’s a complete package.
Now I just need to work on finding a better foundation that can cut that glossy sheen…
