the art of love

May 14, 2010

Today I am happy to debut my final project for Digital Media Convergence, the art of love.

A telling story of two teenagers who dream of the kind of romance only found in the movies.  Of course, film romance is really just a representation of the kind of love that is so rare that film is one of the few ways people get to actually experience it.

The piece is my own little homage to movie romance as well as a way for me to experiment with some filming techniques.  I think the biggest inspiration for my work right now is Michel Gondry.  His use of projection as a way to personify emotion in films like Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and The Science of Sleep is really beautiful.  I think my other inspiration would be Jason Reitman.  Up In The Air was one of my favorite films of last year, and so his work has been very present in my mind right now.

Anyway, I’m sure you just want to see it, so here it is:

I hope you like it!
