I just so happened to come across the video of another Comm Lab student, Alexandra Kuechenberg et al, which is posted on her elegant blog. The video here<\/a> is basically a loop of four people participating in leap frog.<\/p>\n

Well, I’m not sure how I’m supposed to comment, but it does seem interesting that it took 40 minutes to film and edit a clip that, when filmed, was probably all of 20-30 seconds. But, with this comment, I admit that I’m simply suspending my knowledge of working with a timeline in order to essentially make a naive comment, because in my experience, it seems like working with anything with a timeline takes forever to produce even the most basic material.<\/p>\n

In any case, what I don’t see is that the final clip accurately captures a narrative arc…but maybe that<\/em> might be my naive comment. Perhaps I’m thinking too literally about what makes a narrative arc, or simply projecting examples that are overly complex. As a narrative with a beginning, middle and end, each loop did accomplish that format. People leap frogged on, the leaped over each other, and they leaped off. So, I guess there is a narrative there that follows my self-imposed restriction on narrative arc. But, I do think the looping is throwing me, because with the start of each loop I’m expecting something to happen that doesn’t. So I feel disappointed in the story that more isn’t happening. Oh well. Maybe next time….<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
