No Children
1 year ago
This is one of the videos i made for my senior thesis project at the Pacific Northwest College of Art. Last fall, I asked ten friends from various bands to each record a cover for a song of his or her choosing; i made videos for 3 of them.
Audrey Pic of Envelopes recorded this cover of the Mountain Goats' "No Children" and sent it from Paris. The video is a deconstruction of the landmark French New Wave film "Á Bout de Souffle (Breathless)" by Jean-Luc Godard.

I do particularly like the sequence around the 2:00 mark.
the idea was to take godard's trademark use of jump cuts and then magnify it times one hundred. i approached this as an essentially conceptual project, as with all of the videos, so the form had to follow the content.
making the video somewhat uncomfortable to watch was also a way of addressing the issue of passive accessibility in entertainment.
