Location Location???

(Video 1) Located in doorway 1 of the Pigeon House
 



(Video 2) Located in doorway 2 of the Pigeon House
 
 
After reviewing the previous videos (Exploring a space), I decided to keep the videos black and white so that the focus is clearly on the space and my body within it. Now it was a matter of choosing the location that is most effective. The above videos (1&2) are located in an old ruin called the 'Pigeon House' close to where I live. It was filmed from the inside facing outwards at two of the four different doorways. This created my body to become a silhouette against the daylight. I particularly like this because, again, it is conveying a clear contrast between my body(positive) and the space surrounding it (negative).

 
 
(Video 3) Located in doorway 1&3 of the Pigeon House.
 
The video above (Video 3) has been filmed from the outside of the ruin. Therefore the lighting was was not as starking. It almost starts to look like I blend into the surroundings. Also quite interesting and appealing but it is not the direction I want to take my work on.
 
 


(Video 4) Located in the garden of the local pub.
 
In the above video clip (Video 4) I wanted to try filming in another similar framed space where I could mimic the angles and lines of the broken wooden frame with my body as I danced.
