As far as I am concerned this is my best film so far. It is certainly my favourite.

Machinery: Made on April 25, 2006 using iMovie on a twelve inch 867mHz Apple Powerbook.

Technique: The original video footage came from Google Video.
I sorted and cut the the clips to my satisfaction. I then looked at them for length and picked the music that I decided was perfect. I then recut the video so that it matched the music for length, tone and that indefinable substance that makes the difference between something that is shit and something that is precisely right. That said, nothing is ever precisely right. I wish that I could get rid of the slight jerking in some of the clips. I wish that the Adagio from the Gayaneh ballet suite was four hours long, and I wish that I had IMAX quality footage to cut to it. Until all this happens, I am happy with this film. I guess I must be, I must have watched it hundreds of times by now and I still like it.


Then again, I am odd.


Music: Adagio from the Gayane Ballet Suite by Aram Khachaturian
