Project 2: 5 in 5

1in 5 Project Constraints

This is the "5 projects in 5 days" project, in which I executed five videos from 5 older videos with the constraint of the finished video must be edited down to approximately 1 minute long and come from one previously finished video.

Character Studies

• A three part series, that takes a snapshot of characters in media res.

• The characters are unrelated, inhabiting separate circumstances, but still engaged with representations of characters via voiceover and inference.

• These circumstances are present to be counterpoints to the character onscreen.

• Themes of surveillance are repeated in the series.

An observed character and her observer. The narative suggests that there is human testing of a potentially lethal medicine regime. Original Run Time: 1:10
