We've Only Just Begun

Michael Woods 'We've Only Just Begun' from Vid Price on Vimeo.

In this music video they use light trails from LEDs attached to rhythmic gymnast's clothing to create a sense of motion trails from their movement. The trails in this video were done in a post production program but give the same effect as I was looking at in my previous post. By doing them post production they can keep the gymnasts bodies in clear focus but still apply the motion trails over the top allowing both representations of their motion to be seen.

Twixtor - Slow Mo

I really want to have a play with a copy of Twixtor to experiment with slow mo effects. Twixtor tracks the motion in a video and then creates intermediate frames creating an artificial but convincing super slow mo effect.

Super Slow Mo + Timelapse

Nice video with a super slow mo section overlaid with timelapse photography.

Nice Slow Mo Vid

3D Video Mapping Projection

I saw a video like this from an event in sydney a while back. Have started to think about doing something along these lines with my elevation. Maybe using projectors activated by pressure pads in the street at key locations.

MVRDV - The Cloud

I just quite like the way it looks like the towers have undergone some kind of mutation and morphed around each other in this project.

Neon Surfers

Cool way of filming surfers during the night.

Damien Walters

This guy is on another level. He has incredible control over this body and movement.

Traceurs: to trace, to draw, to go fast

An interesting piece by artist Layla Curtis. She was comissioned to do a piece of work by Westminster Council. She used thermal imaging to capture the moments the traceurs come into contact with objects and the marks they leave upon them. These marks and interactions are usually so quick thqt it can be hard to process them using normal imaging or the human eye.
The intensity of the mark shows the intensity of the touch on the surface and different surface produce different types of mark so it represents both the act of the traceur and their effect on the object as well as the effect the texture, surface and shape of the object on the interaction o fthe traceur.

The making of video provides more insight into the artist and her intentions and techniques -

Spoof Olympic Promotional Video

An interesting look at the upcoming olympics after the recent London riots.

Chaz Ortiz - Go All Day

Cool video centred around a skateboarder going to school. Shows a lot about how different people use spaces and view it differently.

Carnovsky Multilayered Prints

Carnovsky is a Milan based artist/designer duo comprised of Francesco Rugi and Silvia Quintanilla. They create surfaces that mutate and interact with different chromatic stimulus. The works they produce explores the depth of surfaces.

The RGB technique consists of three overlapping primary colour images, the result of which is an intricate multilayered print. Placing a red, green or blue colored filter (a light or a transparent material) reveals one of the three levels.

Each layer is designed to relate to the others, but at the same time connect to a different psychological or emotional status as the images pass from the clear to the hidden.

For the exhibition at DreamBagsJaguarShoes, their first show in the UK, they have chosen the topic of the ‘Jungle’. Exploring its exuberant, twisted and dense vegetation that hides bizarre creatures.

Erosie - HORROR VACUI

HORROR VACUI vs STROOMHUIS vs MARTYN from Jeroen Erosie on Vimeo.

Nice little visual video from Erosie - "The artist formerly known as street artist"

In visual art, horror vacui is the filling of the entire surface of an artwork with detail.
