More videos

Heres another music video for Bon iver's Holocene.
Parts of it show waves in slow motion crashing against rocks.
Take a look see.

Clare langan

An Irish film maker -Clare langan works with Photography/film/installation art. These videos are very interesting, I like how she uses different experimental techniques to record these videos, such as painted glass over the lans and super slo-mo cameras. Like the bon Iver video in the last post, the music is timed very well to the piece.


The clip that interests me most is the final clip called becks fusion which shows slo-motion water. Its was a response to a piece of music by Sigur-rós. The clip was shot in Iceland.
 Its very mesmerising and sublime. I love it.

here are some stills from the piece for becks fusion





Here are stills from another piece called 'the ice above the fire below'





 This was a film of the sea, shot using a high speed digital Phantom Camera. The camera enables the use of extreme slow motion not possible with a regular camera. The film creates a wall of water in the space emulating the effect of being in the middle of, or surrounded by a tidal wave. Projecting the videos in a gallery situates the viewer in an immersive panoramic experience of sound and vision.
