PAPER MEMORIES from Theo Putzu on Vimeo.

I've done some research into how memories have been represented in previous works to gain some inspiration for my own work and hopefully to inspire some ideas. 

Drunk// Ed Sheeran


About the 3.00 mark the camera swoops towards the selection of polaroid photos that are on the wall and then cuts to a moving image scene of the same photograph, transporting us into the 'memory.' I really liked this effect and might see if I can incorporate it into my own. 

Moments// Will Haffman 


I've mentioned this video before in relation to Time Art but I still thought I could reference and re-look at it for the Reflections project as well. While not really directly showing memories, I think it could be cool to maybe incorporate the idea of smaller moments in life that are not necessarily remembered/ appreciated very often but that are quite important in making us happier during our day. In my case the smaller things would be focussed on hugs, being able to chill and coming home to see my dog bouncing round my feet as he greets me (when I'm back home in NI that is - didn't appreciate that until I left!). 

Twinkle Lightly// Nanalew


My friend first showed me this during the first few weeks of uni cus he thought it was very relevant for us. It kind of blurs the past, present and future to show different memories between the main character and her friends and there is an effective use of overlaying the images to merge them together . One of my ideas was to maybe show the difference between my life back home and now after starting uni in another country and this is a technique I could look into applying in someway between the 2 projects.

Paper Memories// Theo Putzu


This video uses stop motion which really gained my attention as I love this form of animation. I thought it was a very innovative and intriguing way to film the video and I really liked the idea of how the actual photos within the film appear to be moving, such as when the woman is shown walking along the beach in an old picture.

Memories// Hampus Karlsson


I like the old, vintage style colour correction in this video. I also thought the use of sound proved to be very effective, following a similar old style which makes it flow nicely. This brings me back to the idea of doing something with polaroids etc to represent the past.

Memory By Design// Nathan Punwar


This has possibly been my favourite piece so far as I love the use of sound and how it creates a slightly uncomfortable feeling. I like the fast paced nature and quick editing and I think it shows memory in a different unique manner.
