When people who have never been to our house and they walk into our living room for the first time, they are usually stunned a little by the amount of things on the walls. Most, if not all, comment on it and say it is almost a "sensory overload" (a term many people have used to describe our house). To us its business as usual but to others they become lost in our walls. Some have said that they could look around for hours and find new things. We have big canvas art (some collages) posters, magazine cut outs, smaller art, photography, smaller posters and some card board cutouts. I want to, in some way, make the video experience of being in our house.
I'd like it to be a "visual collage" of sorts. Not to be confused with montage. It would be very abstract yet real because I like having subjects in the frame as well. There doesn't need to be much story but rather, when it comes to editing, edit some of the common factors close together. Green shots, white shots, shots with just heads. I'd like to use all the diagetic sounds from the video as well. I would basically film a lot of footage then take the best from the shoot. There would be a lot of experimenting and eventually I would like it to have some type of arc to it.
I'd like it to start very abstract with a lot of close ups that eventually come out to medium shots. It will all feel very random. Much like our "art walls". Then I'm debating on whether or not I should have something happen to the "characters" in the film and eventually have it climax to something then have it go back to abstractions.
Here are some of my favorite screen shots of the first 30 mins I took with the camcorder.
