Another few small videos. Still a good few to add from 2009.
FEBRUARY 11 2010
Experiment with a few images. Need to be more selective in next version.

BELATED UPDATE
May 2009
This is the first version of the performance BALANCE which took place as part of our end of 3rd year exhibition in the Back Loft Gallery.
The theme os the performance is an invitation to viewers to symbolically experience the unpredictability of daily living
MARCH 2009
This was originally a looping video reflecting the variability of mood-swings
JULY 2008
The music in this video was recorded on the last day of the camino, on the outskirts of Santiago de Compostella in Northwest Spain. Would love to find out who these people were who visited the Cathedral July 2008.
The outfit and the sticks are what I wore for the ten-day trek.

The art-focus of the video-performance is a demonstration of the used of theatre lights in making art. I found them a lot more difficult to manage than studio lights, but the stage-space was a wonderful place to perform.
MAY 2008
I never get tired of capturing sunshine on camera. Most of my pictures are taken with my 5 megapixel Nokia cameraphone N95, and most times I used the sports setting to reduce the camera shake that comes with advancing age, and impatience to get the shot without having time to set up a tripod. (anyway the phone is on a string around my neck, and doesn't have a tripod fitting!)
DECEMBER 2007
Unbelieveably, this is based on a true story told to me by Tony himself.
APRIL 30 2007
Not many people get to light and blow out the entire 70 candles on their birthday. It was a delight. I also remembered the names of those born the same day as me, and had my Christening robe there which is now part of the robe in which my children and grandchildren were christened.
APRIL 2007
I'm afraid the video is a bit jerky, not like the original. Maybe some day, I'll do a better edit. But not today!

Double Phonecall video as presented at assessment
This is a little piece I made a few days before assessment with camera-work by David Weekes.
The artist part of me is attacked by the domestic part of me, but holds her own from the 'control-room' upstairs.
We made the workroom video first, recording both the ring-tone, and the audio on a mobile phone, and then playing them back while we recorded the second video. Think I need to learn some more about improving the quality of audio.
A small bit of editing was done in Final Cut Pro. Then the FCP movie was opened in iMovie to make the quicktime movie.

GG as presented for final assessment
No luck with this one.
The final piece is done in Flash 8 so that you can click on the rectangles of Gerry's painting (see below), and the underlying video image brightens for a few seconds and then fades.
Well, its 7Mb, and seemed to upload, so I waited until it had the 7 M done showing.
Then an error message came up telling me to report the fault to blogger and include the following information (maybe its not a good idea to publish this code for all the world to see, so I will put it in a small text file alongside the video.
I have a vague plan to work on learning more Flash during the summer, and to see can I do this piece a bit more simply. It has even been suggested to me that I might be able to do it just using HTML. Well, we shall see.
Sorry I can't show you the full piece.

Archive EC 2008
This is one of the pieces from my final 6-week project in Media 2 at NCAD 2008
I am now in my 8th decade. The video shows objects from each decade.
I used two cameras, and layered the resulting footage with decreased opacity in the upper layer. Similarly I reduced the audio in the first voice to give a suggestion of thought preceding speech.
I made the piece using Final Cut Pro, and reduced the size of the video using iMovie

GG Appropriation 1
Monday April 28 2008
This is part one of the piece I am creating.
The next idea is to make it interactive so that people will be able to click on the sections to see the content underneath
