Play the Blues

"The camera is both the eye of the audience and film-maker, so it can go anywhere and do or become anything it wants."

My project task was "look through the eyes of someone or something else" and produce two 30-second films. Here, my idea was to imagine that if the instruments were alive, then this is probably how they would see themselves. I also wanted the viewer to not only get a sense of sight and sound, but also to be able to feel. Almost as if becoming the strings and the music being played. Additionally, I thought the viewer might find it interesting to see the guitar and the audience from the perspective of the musician (a sight which is rarely experienced by anyone other than the music themselves).
