- What role will sound play in your video?
Sound will, hopefully, anchor the video and pull you back in. While my bench idea might be calm and slow visually, the sound, as well as what is happening in frame, will hopefully work together to make the video more interesting. While gathering test footage, the sounds I noticed were: Trees, Leaves, Birds, People, backpacks, Wind, Trash blowing, things impacting the ground.
- What is my personal connection to this place?
It’s where I went to school, and I feel like it focuses on a part of campus that gets overlooked for obvious reasons. I feel that I don’t really have a connection to any specific bench, but since there are so many all around campus, it could be ANYWHERE on campus that I relate to. I have shared countless moments with friends and family on benches around campus, and actually, during my first project seen some of the benches that I would use more during my freshmen year. Maybe that is something that I can go back and add to my first project.
