TS lens video

I found really interesting video. They are shot by  a camera with TS lens. It stands for Tilted-Shift  lens.
If you take pictures or shoot a video with this lens, it gives a feeling like miniature objects. It focuses on middle of the scene and make blurry on the top and bottom of the scene. Also you can make it fake miniature using editing tools like photoshop or after effect.

Primary Idea for Digital Environment

After I saw Honda's The Cog ad, OK GO's music video of This Too Shall Pass and etc in the first class, I reminded the Michel Gondry's film, Science of Sleep. After the class, I watched the film again and also found his more work on youtube.



Today's class reminded me the way he turns light off at 7:43



I liked they made all city with toilet paper rolls and cardboards at 1:55




At 1:17
It's impressive that the character looks running on different objects but it's actually running on the same spot. I liked the vintage and retro mood as well.
