The final video!
This project was inspired and based off of the poem "This is Just to Say" by William Carlos Williams and the response to that poem by his wife Florence Williams. I wanted to make something a little more experimental than I've done in the past, with a focus on detail and sensory elements.
I read somewhere once that a good way to analyze a film is to watch it without audio and then watch it without visuals, and then see if it still makes sense without either of the two. One of my goals with this project was to see if I could make something that had enough detail and specificity with both audio and visual production to stand alone if one were to be taken away. While my project doesn't completely fulfill this, I think it is a valuable attempt and that is one way it can be interpreted.
