But I regrettably I have had some catch up editing to do, and have finally arrived on top of it all. It has been refreshing to look back over the footage, some of which I had forgotten about, watching films in their entireity and noticing what I find interesting having had that time removed from them.
The first of the two excerpts is a collection of footage from across the year that have somehow gone astray and are therefore not in a chronological order of when they happened. Which I kind of like for a change gives some variety to the environments that I encounter. It has made it interesting when it comes to editing them next to each other and triggers thoughts as I try to remember where I am, what I was doing, and how I am feeling at the time in each new space.
The second excerpt is the nearing the end of the project and
sees me visit some of my favourite spaces as I travel between my work
engagements in regional NSW. One that sticks in my mind and body is the
experience of performing in a sea of yellow canola in Cowra, especially fun as
I could disappear and reappear and feel so insignificant amidst the varsity of
it all, (and of course yellow happens to be my favourite colour). I notice,
which I have pointed out before, that I am drawn to film in outdoor spaces and
the natural environment, and I love this tendency, it forces something beyond
myself and my own movement exploration extending into the essence of the
surrounds.
I have one more film to post which is a bit of fun and has a running theme that kind of breaks the boundaries of the way that I have been in filming and editing for the majority of the project.
So stay tuned...
