Our location is at the
theatre and the basement of Hunter College. In our video, the actor can be seen
fervently chasing after a one hundred dollar bill. Inside the theatre, the bill
takes on mischievous character traits and it can be seen hiding where the actor
cannot see it. When the actor finally finds the $100, he realizes to his dismay
that it is actually a $1 bill. The video concludes with a sad and dejected
actor.
I came up with the idea
for a comical money chase scene. We shot the footage on two separate days; we
were not aware that our footage during the first day was not adequate to
maintain continuity. We experienced many difficulties during the shooting phase
because of issues with time, space and lighting; inside the theatre we had to
use ISO 3200 but we still had insufficient lighting. We came and met together to
edit our videos numerous times whilst enduring many hours of frustration. In
the production phase of our video, we encountered numerous obstacles. We were
riddled with encoding issues, USB size issues, horrible rendering problems, different
versions of final cut pro, non-existent internet connection, and limited hours
of the media lab. In the midst of this agonizing situation, we are thankful for
Flonia’s assistance and helpful pointers in regards to our video. We hope that
you appreciate the time and energy we have inserted into this video and enjoy
its contents.
