This song happened to come on randomly as I was working with a set of cameras, and this is what I ended up with.<\/p>\n<p>The entire video was (sort of) made in one shot. I set up 4 cameras pointed at different parts of the scene, and used audio triggers from the song to automatically switch between the cameras. All camera switches were unique to the time I played the song back, so I couldn&#8217;t really plan for a progression.<\/p>\n<p>The first pass was recorded off of the screen of the wobbulator to give it a security camera feel. i then played back that first pass back through the wobbulator again and had the audio drive the drawing of the scanlines, resulting in the jiggling lines of the video. You&#8217;ll notice that bass sounds result in an all over image wobble, while high notes are more visual as you can see their frequency in the lines. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>And another: <\/p>\n<p><object width=\"500\" height=\"375\"><param name=\"allowfullscreen\" value=\"true\" \/><param name=\"allowscriptaccess\" value=\"always\" \/><param name=\"movie\" value=\"http:\/\/vimeo.com\/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=16434569&amp;server=vimeo.com&amp;show_title=1&amp;show_byline=1&amp;show_portrait=1&amp;color=00ADEF&amp;fullscreen=1&amp;autoplay=0&amp;loop=0\" \/><embed src=\"http:\/\/vimeo.com\/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=16434569&amp;server=vimeo.com&amp;show_title=1&amp;show_byline=1&amp;show_portrait=1&amp;color=00ADEF&amp;fullscreen=1&amp;autoplay=0&amp;loop=0\" type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" allowscriptaccess=\"always\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\"><\/embed><\/object><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Part of an experiment with multiple cameras and rapid switching at the Experimental Television center. Attempt at making a live lo-fi bullet time\/stop motion look.<\/p>\n<p>This video was all done live and in one take using 8 different cameras and an automated switcher. Some layering and color correction was done in Final Cut Pro afterwards. I mostly left it in gritty SD because it was already the product of 8 cameras, 4 of which were late 70&#8217;s\/early 80&#8217;s black and white cameras. Everything was then run through the Jones sequencer which was controlled by an oscillator running at a variable speed.<\/p>\n<p>The colors are off because when something is run through the ETC system, it&#8217;s chroma phase gets thrown off by each new device it goes through. I tried to do as much manual correction of the hue as I could, but I ended up leaving it in all different colors to differentiate the cameras a little bit. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The first of 4 or 5 videos that I churned out at my residency at the experimental television center.
