We have reached the end of our project and are quite happy with the shape it has taken. Brady’s idea to overlay disembodied arms and legs over some of our footage added an interesting layer to our message that we all enjoyed. It’s been very interesting to work together and learn from each other; if only we could have visited each other’s cities during this project!
Our director, Rebeka, describes our finished piece as “A captivating collage of how it feels for bodies to move through public space. Strikingly hypnotic, delightfully odd, and seamlessly narrated.”
It is my hope as I write this that we will be able to work together again, and perhaps even visit each other someday in the future. What an interesting experience to collaborate on a film from across the globe.

This week we got quite busy working on the rough cut of our film. We worked out a way around our different schedules and different time zones and planned out the technicalities, then went out to film details in urban design of Chicago and Brno that seem hostile or uninviting. Going location scouting and filming, we explored how we felt in those areas, which brought us one step closer to our theme. The rough cut left us all excited and motivated, as it reflected nicely the direction we wanted to move in. Looking forward, we will now be discussing the cut and how we want to polish it, and applying the feedback we will soon receive in class. After settling on the next steps, we will plan them out, from now on also counting in the change in daylight savings in the US. This proccess should take us to the final edit, presented in next week’s class.
