Ether Signals
Personal Project
Ether Signals is a personal project that came about from a tendency of getting a song stuck in my head, usually staying there on repeat until I go to sleep. Being a huge fan of music videos, I figured why not do something with these songs that brings together two of my favorite things: music and story telling.
To accomplish this, I gave myself parameters to create within, using footage found on stock sites and music within Instagram Stories. I paired songs with visuals that I felt could create mini-narratives. Initially I began this project as a daily creative release aside from my 9-5 work. Forcing myself to put together a 15 second clip within 10-30 minutes. No matter how it came out I posted it on my stories.
After the first month of this project I allowed myself more creative liberties. Working on cinematic approaches to editing, depth of field within scenes, and even attempting to sync music to cuts.
