EXPERIMENT: 002

Last week I was playing around with my camera during the videoblogger videoconference and I found that I was really entranced by shooting closeups of eveyone's tiny little video preview. I love the way the magnified pixels look and the apparent black grid between them. So I created this video by filming myself with my Xacti at 320 X 240. Then I played that video back at 1/2 size in the QuickTime player while I filmed it from a few centimeters away. Then, like all the stuff that I film with the Xacti, I converted it to DV, edited it in Final Cut Pro and then exported it for the web.

So what do you think? What does it look like I'm thinking about? Try watching it with and without the the sound. How does that affect it?
