@jstofalltrades it was unexpected, I could feel a real shift in my processing and perception of your project. Can't wait to see how it turns out in the end! #smeno4peerreview
@jstofalltrades you gotta keep that break in the music (produced beautifully, btw) , that was killer. It worked so well, especially to highlight that sound you make in the monologue. #smeno4peerreivew
@jstofalltrades another risk could be adding silence? What does mixing silence throughout the ambience do? How would it break it up? Fading in or out? cutting it off completely? is it really silence or is it something else? just some food for thought #smeno4peerreview
@jstofalltrades maybe one risk could be adding words to your visuals? they don't have to be obvious either. Or they can be idk. what would it look like with words on the screen somewhere? How would those words act? #smeno4peerreview
@jstofalltrades and it's extended to how it's part of us, ingrained in us, deep within at the molecular level and throughout our being...it's a really intriguing concept #smeno4peerreview
@jstofalltrades I couldn't tell you what it means but it's just a really cool effect in the project. What did it mean for you? Was it intentional or did you just pick a random point? #smeno4peerreview
@jstofalltrades the silencing of the ambient noise at 1:23 creates a really cool shift in the tone. like a moment of clarity or being thrown into the environment after watching it from the outside #smeno4peerreview
@jstofalltrades the dissonance between the voice and image during this section is really interesting. It made me start to feel the randomness, like second-guessing a path...maybe trying not to be normal? #smeno4peerreview
@hilallayali you should for sure keep the static over the writing. It was really loud but disturbing in a good way, I think it mixes well with the visual subject #smeno4peerreview
@hilallayali it doesn't have to be much, but like what would words or even a singular image on the phone could be something really fun to play with #smeno4peerrreview
@hilallayali maybe one risk could be adding a visual on the phone at 1:46? I think there is a lot of potential with the phone, maybe adding something there could extend the meaning of that part of your final project #smeno4peerreview
@hilallayali or maybe the opposite? of how dread can influence such minor parts of our life but make such a big impact? idk I'm still processing this one I think #smeno4peerreview
@hilallayali the shift was almost jarring, almost a complete 180 if it didn't connect with the previous visuals that tied it to the few seconds before it. #smeno4peerreview
@hilallayali that shift tone from eeriness to the pleasant "corporate" music introduces something new. I also like how you sort of simulated blinking in that moment #smeno4peerreview
@hilallayali as for my own reactions, I feel like I start to feel the distortion and panic of indecision that your voice is saying. I notice the edge and almost chaos of the verbal subject #smeno4peerreview
@hilallayali the image and voice pull apart at the end of the first minute, where the voice cuts out to static and the visuals are of someone writing. It's a really interesting move #smeno4peerreview
