A cut of the motion graphics!

Here is the 1 minute cut of the first 'film' made over thisisnotdesignless.org. The very same that is on the showreel at the show.



Thanks to everyone who submitted video!

Better late than never, but...

the website is online!

http://www.thisisnotdesignless.org

this is amazing

could this be the 'digital aesthetic'? I'm not sure what has happened to this video, but somewhere in the capture/download/upload/download/upload sequence it had become unmistakably digital...

Cool

How cool is this?!?!



In other news, i'm uploading all the videos i've been sent to youtube, and it's a very, very long process. How I wish I had done them one by one when I got them! The website is so close to finished now it's crazy! Maybe if I get some sleep I could do it in the morning.....

Oh... and

Surprisingly, a reasonable proportion of the clips have pretty good sound. How technology has enabled that to be the case is beyond me. I'm going to try and use as much of it in the videos as I can, so long as it works with the soundtracks... more soon

website

Websites are inherently digital. What would an analogue website look like?

- A more-or-less working version of the website is up online now, however I'm still having trouble with the database for the embedded video links. I think that as time runs out I'll have to resort to removing the functionality of the website and adding all the links myself. That is a shame as it means the project can not yet be fully automated as I had always planned.

On the plus side, I've had some more interesting video's which I will put up on youtube and try and post on here in a bit.

Videos

I've had some pretty cool videos recently, although they have all been over my email (from people I know and various degrees of seperation outwards) - as I am still having problems with the website. I'm going to start editing the films in the next couple of days for upload to fourdocs at the weekend.. The music is almost done and I'm feeling pretty positive about how they will turn out. I guess I have found out how difficult it is, and how long it takes to set up a project such as this - one that relies on public participation. The project was always intended to be an ongoing one though, and the videos will be a good sample of what it is possible to make, and will be made in the future.
