"Pizza Upskirts" →
“The largest collection of pizza-crust-bottom photos IN THE WORLD!” Not really a flickr group so much as one guy’s faithful collection of photographs of the undersides of pieces of pizza. Very strange indeed.

As im editing..
As I’m editing this mini-docofilm is taking on a new aesthetic. Its going to be kind of neo-noir, with rich dark blues and stark black and white contrasts. Taking my cue from BRICK I am trying to make Craig a sort of mysterious character that one might encounter in a lift. What we hear are his thoughts as he prepares for what he is about to do (my design interview). So its kind of a noir...
Filmed it
Filmed it last Friday. (Yay!)
Now for the editing..
Craig II
Talked again to the man himself. Went through my ideas (which were met with enthusiasm) so that’s a positive. Filming is going to be funny I think. As for content I guess we will just see how it goes.. Starting tomorrow - whoop!

MDDN 211 NEW PROJECT - Promotion
Third assignment: Presentation (either 30 seconds or 1 minute)

The video should include either a brief interview (soundbite) from a 3rd or 4th year student, or work examples from several upperclass students.
You will need to find and interview this person (or persons), and obtain consent. The style of the video is open —it can be a...

Final Idea
So i still want to have dual perspective (two screens showing different scenes simultaneously) to try and use suspense to convey my sensory emotion: FEAR.
In the right hand screen the camera start black and slowly focus as it pans along a white wall, coming to a corner, slowly turning it and end up facing down a long hallway with an ominous door at the end of it. The camera continues to slowly...

Revising the idea
Don’t use people - too literal
Idea of the corner - what is around the corner? Why is the unseen so scary? Fear is irrational.
