I am frustrated with my video. I went a performative route, thinking that the ideas I could communicate therein would be more compelling than a straight image. But apparently I failed at that, not cinematic enough to be a short film, not realistic/dramatic/bizarr-o enough to be a performance with any substance.
ouch.
I am still intrigued by the images but I do think that they would have been better suited to be part of a larger narrative. In my head I know exactly where I would want to reshoot and what my establishing shot would be and what the narrative arc would be, etc. However, my perfect location is in Great Falls, MT and not realistic to go do over any time soon.
I should move on. But its been only 12 hours since crit and I am still smarting from it. I feel like a failure lately.

darling, you are not a failure.
i would however like to reiterate the idea that perhaps you don't need to go to montana to make this movie - but i do agree that the performance needed more of a scene to occur in.
