For the last couple of days I have doing a combination of editing video and taking still shots. The videos are taking muchos time rendering - thankfully I am only doing a few minutes for each piece but some of that involves editing down several hours of footage and I also am layering in multiple tracks..... Friday night rained and so my first actual public projection night was last night (Saturday). This was really just trying to see if the spot was good and everything worked. I was happy with the result. Now I just need the media to come on board and get people to come for a look!
I am playing around with colour a bit in the video and still images. The way the colour changes so quickly is amazing. I am planning some more time lapse work. I think I will have enough raw material and concepts by the time I leave for the next two years. All I need is time to do them all! Ummmm :-)
Yesterday went for a walk around the shoreline to the Queen Victoria Museum and Art Gallery. A really wide selection of historical and cultural works -including restored railway and foundry setups. Also included was uni and studio spaces. Their second site is being revamped so the art side was a little thin but had Philip Wolfhagens'
Archipelago as the main feature. A truly magnificent work spanning over three sets of two panels. Each panel is 2m x 5m and together they form a view of land and sea that is windswept and misty. You can almost feel the salty air.
I am about to head off for a walk over to the showgrounds - Sunday markets. Then home to read the papers and watch the gorge change colours.
