yesterday was spent filming the footage for the film, which involved filming a close-up of my mouth in a darkened corridor with the aid of a mobile phone light.
the result is something quite ambiguous, a little eerie and kind of disgusting, (i think i've been eating too many sweets, but .. anything for art right?) like a fleshy cave or some other clammy orifice. maybe something a surgeon might see after inserting the little camera?
the audio is of popping candy in the mouth, which actually sounds quite amazing.
we played with volume by opening and closing the mouth and chewing, chomping etc to create texture and i actually really like the final outcome. i think it's sort of funny that we've used something that has such a novelty, nostalgia and childishness about it like sweets and made something quite disturbing and thought provoking.
i just tried to upload it to the blog but the sound doesnt seem to be working, so i'll try and post it tomorrow after the crit. good night
