Documentary

Gary Hill's film made me think about the different ways that effects can be utilized in a film. Experimenting with lights in my first project I especially enjoyed how the strobe light was used in his film. How the camera captured light against that black wall, the entire room was illuminated with every flash. Another part I really enjoyed was the contrast of the book turning with the waves in the ocean. The composition was beautiful, and the transitions between the scenes were flawless. Also, the sound created when the film was slowed down and reversed was really cool and eerie, something I might want to use in my final project.
