Sara A's Final Project


This piece incorporates film with sound. It is taking the sounds of a basketball game and turning it into a rhythm, while putting images of a basketball game and a viewer to the beat. This piece incorporates repetition and varied tempos in order to give each action its own beat and emotion. Towards the end of the video, the tempo speeds up and it becomes much more choppy and quick. This was put in in order to capture how it feels to watch the end of a basketball game and the emotion of anxiety we feel when we watch the end of a basketball game. There are certain actions and sounds that are common when we view a basketball game, and this video is highlighting some of those sounds and actions, but through a different perspective. I wanted to turn the sites and sounds of a basketball game into more than just an event. I wanted to summarize what I observed when I watched the basketball game, but instead of explaining it, I put it to sound and images. There are many instances where certain songs remind us of certain events; this piece was an interpretation of that idea.
