Project 01 - Spectre Symphony


When considering the whistle with a built it flashlight, I kept reverting back to the concept of "disruption". The title Spectre Symphony was meant to reflect how 'ghosts' and other paranormal phenomena create disruptions in photographs, videos and other forms of electrical equipment. This was further emphasized by the static noises found scattered in the audio. The ghostly lights and how they create compositions of their own represent the 'symphony', which is reflected by calmer sections of audio.
Each sequence of frames experiments with different methods of achieving long exposures of light. Variables included the light source itself, whether the light was blinking, the number or color of lights, the movement of the camera, and the focus of the lens. I attempted to separate sections of the video by adjusting the frequency of the light sources in accordance with the pacing of the audio.
