School: Project Music+Video

Imagine you took a footage with a video camcorder. Then you slice here and there until u have a short clip (mostly under 2 seconds). You save the slices as separate video files which later you treat as an audio samples. So you arrange this audio/video samples using video editing software until it became rhytmical music. Copy, shorten, loop, etc. The software is actually for video editing, but you emphasising on the audio rather than the video. After that, you treated the audio --reverb, equalizer, normalize, etc. You also treated the video --overlay, moving path, masking, coloring, etc.
Result?
A music video with a fast cut and overlaying images and a ryhtmical music made from everyday sounds.

If you can imagine that. That's what my current school project is about.
I still working on the concept of the content. Currently as an initial idea and testing I took the theme of water. Footage of water in the bathroom has been shot. Tap water, bath-tube, shower, etc. Will do some arrange testing so that later when the real musician come, I already have a glance to what kind of problems that might occur.

If you think this will be interesting, you can always come back here to check the progress. The subject of the blog post for this project will be starting with "School: Project Music+Video"
