Through the ears
For this project, I wanted to express this quote by McLuhan.
"The public consists of separate individuals walking around with separate, fixed points of view." (McLuhan 69)
With this video, I wanted to show the audience that every person has a different fixed point of view and will differ from one another. From my experience of my first year at college soccer, I found every player has a different way of "playing soccer". Though as a team needed to find one fixed point of view of what is "playing soccer". The same goes for us throughout time, we have different opinions on almost everything. But in the end, we find one fixed point of view that we can all agree on.
I have cut the first part into three clips with different time duration to indicate how me and my friend had differnt POV of the restruant experience. But at the end I only have one clip each to represent we have come toghther at the end.
With farther reading
"Most people find it difficult to understand purely verbal concepts. They suspect the ear; they don't trust it. In general, we feel more secure when things are visible, when we can "see for ourselves." (McLuhan 117)
I express this quote by putting mixture of raining sound and the sound of bbq. When you see bbq, are you sure that is a sound of a meat cooking? or is it a just raining sound? I took this quote as we are too much dependent on visual.
I really like the concept for this video! The way you interpreted that quote into a mix visuals and sound is also slightly ironic and pretty funny, in a smart way though. I think with your video also brings up questions about how people can manipulate media based on different senses.
