Second Response

After participating in the construction of a cameraless film, I feel I have a better understanding of the craftsmanship and concepts that go into the formulation of a cameraless. This is my "Second" first response to two cameraless films that were viewed in class. 

These were the initial responses I had in class:

1st one looked completely drawn/painted, inks, pastels and whatnot. Brighter orange, citrusy taste, flavor, warm. Shapes morphing back and forth. If it is drawn, I'm curious about the amount of time spent drawing/ painting it. Shapes interacting. I can't tell if they are using oils and acrylics. Summer. Did like one part where a large square moves from bottom right and changes into a small square at the top left. Shapes performing extraordinary feats.

2nd one used actual footage with drawing/painting added to the image as well. Don't know if it counts as a "found footage film". Tape/magazine transfer done to the extreme. Darker, cooler, from the deep recesses of space. Abstract shapes adding together to form something else (one segment looked like a cigarette being lit) . Particularly like the part where an amorphous black blob that takes over an image of a human figure, then moves out. Very unique use of puncturing throughout. Preferred this short over the last.
