The first video, called The Knife, was a still shot of a silver knife with a dark blue background. The light source was from the light. Gradually colored light would appear across the knife and then quickly disappear. It does this several times with different colors (red, green, blue, yellow). I have been trying to contemplate the meaning behind this piece and can't really think of anything. I am guessing this is an example for our final project (constructed space). The mood I get from it is anxious. You get this slow build up and then you wait for it to quickly go away. The anticipation grows each scene.
The second video, called The Chair, is a still shot of a gold-sh colored chair, barely visible in the dark background and shadows. The light source is small and highlights the upper part of the chair. For 7 minutes, colored feathers slowly fall one or two at a time (almost 80 fall). The mood/message I get from this video is solemn and serene. The feathers could represent thoughts falling or possibly an ending to a day. I'm not quite sure though...
