In the recent competition which we can all enter here , you have seen this I hope ?
{Winner earns a selective prize}

One of the questions that I asked myself afterwards, making my video for the competition here in LF, was when my wife Kaori asked.
Did you place the music and then the images ?
Or the other way round?

Made me think about, how I did make the video, for me it is more a feeling not a mechanical method.
To some degree I say I go into a trance and time is slowed down and I literally flow the images onto the screen, like a person writing a letter, apply feelings and emotions.

And yes I would say the music came first.

So how about you gang ?
What and how does it evolve for yourself to make a film / video ?

I watched a 1974 video of Sinbad today, the stop motion methods which include of course shadows are incredible.

Most would say very tacky but I say with a smile the camera angles are perfect.

Other films like this one here for me ask the biggest questions you can ask, by using video to tell a story yet ask that question.
Without the need to bring religion into the scene, very clever ideas.

Ideas in a film have no limits, for me this is video, ideas brought to life.

You’re a real artist Rob. I’m sure going with the flow is best. I’m usually a bit rushed and trying to get my video done as fast as possible. Too many clips. Not enough time.

I usually add the clips first and then music but it probably is better the other way round. Select a music track, edit it to a good length, then fit clips into the beats/mood.
