After originally planning on going on a walk in a J direction and forming a narrative around it, I decided to change my idea and went out on the street and recorded a variation of walking shots of my footsteps, blended with a mixture of pictures of road names/signs that I came across that I found interesting/helpful on my journey in the 'J' shape. I let the road signs lead me in the direction that I wanted to go, which was a J shape. There isn't so much of a narrative to the story, but a message through the imagery, suggesting that text, like road names, can guide us on different journey's, however it can also restrict us going a certain path that we may have been destined to go on. I also played on the idea of chance, allowing my intuitions and the use of road names and house names, to lead me on my journey.Shots of the important locations:
Here is the final Piece. Generally I am happy with the video and picture element, as the video's of the footsteps overlapping suggests a never-ending motion of my journey, which is complimented by the imagery of the road signs.
