K. so i got sick of watching cool videos and graphics and decided to try and learn more about their creation first hand. sorry for the absence, though i know that that apology is entirely self directed it needed to be stated for manners sake. in love with interactive media, i tried to build my first website www.beachvolleyballmarketinggroup.com. horribly inefficient domain name yes, but i was asked to author the book only after the title had already been published. though, a fun experiment and education into the world of flash programming and action script 3.0 interactivity, it soon became obvious that the ship had no pilot, or rather, the pilot had no map. i'm sure it's a lot like the early engineers at NASA felt when they slaved over building early space craft only to watch them be inherited by a rowdy chimpanzee with a belly full of banana pellets... after a long over do "fuck this", i've since moved on to explore more about 3d animation and the software and render engines used to create them... when i can produce something that i suppose worth sharing i'll be sure and do so here. so far my efforts haven't merited a chimpanzee to pilot nor have i earned nary a banana pellet for my early efforts... and good thing my fascination isn't fueled by paltry fruit calories.
so i announce my return to the planet of video art with a fresh perspective and hopefully a little more insight. and keeping with the nasa theme, let's use this video serve as metaphor as to what can be seen when explored.
Time lapse sequences of photographs taken by the crew of expeditions
28 & 29 onboard the International Space Station from August to October,
2011, who to my knowledge shot these pictures at an altitude of around 350 km.
All credit goes to them. I intend to upload a FullHD-version presently.
HD, refurbished, smoothed, retimed, denoised, deflickered, cut, etc.
All in all I tried to keep the looks of the material as original as possible,
avoided adjusting the colors and the like, since in my opinion the original
footage itself already has an almost surreal and aestethical visual nature.
and if you're as confused as i still am about what the hell exactly the auroras are, even after a not so quick wiki sesh. i got you covered with this quick education.
and a quick p.s... the music and graphics were produced by a norwegian named 'per byhring' who did the music for this wing suit vid below. and you might know how much i like wing suite vids.
