Hourglass

Trying to mimic the continuum of life through film....

As it has been said in one form or another 'The carousel keeps turning and you can't get off'. The second film I made I wanted to reflect the continuum of time and constant motion of life. Lately I have been interest in the concept of time, and its continuum.  I created this film with the concept that time never stops moving, tragic events happen at the same time as amazing memories, but the clock keeps ticking.  Below are the audio and video sources that were used within this film. I started with the idea of the concept and created a basic list of clips that would be needed to create the effect wanted. I was inspired by audio clips that I found and created the audio file first. I then found clips that most people of this time period can relate to tragedy wise, the thought of war with the atomic bomb, and the 9/11 attack. I also found happier moments and day to day motions that we may all go through. It was not until I finished piecing together the clips that I added the audio of the clock ticking in the background. Before I added it my teacher mentioned that there was no aspect of the passing of time in this video. This is why I added the clock audio, I wanted to add an aspect that time was passing but not in any specific time in the video. All of these events could be happening at the same time, the important factor is that time is still moving.
