I chose to read the article, Material Memories, by Paul D. Miller. The article caught my attention because of the Internet site it was posted on. I had visited this site once before to research for a different class.
The article mainly talks about cinema’s images displayed on screen in their relation to the time period they were created. Most effects relate to modern day films, but in the past before such technology was known about they used different images to associate the film to the era. A quote from the article gives several examples of objects both human and non-human that represent the mesh of time on the screen.
This article related to my drift two final video when I was selecting contemporary images. In this abstract short video I want to capture a time that was modern and therefore wasn’t afraid to use effects, or keep images of newer looking things in the video. I believe I will find this article very useful in the future due to the fact that I may sometimes be attempting to portray elements of the past or future.
