Okay, before I get carried away

My thoughts are going 1000 miles per hour, so I am going to lay down what I have been thinking so that I can get back to it:

I was between doing the Edward Lear project and Monkey 'Pigsy in Space' video for D&AD, and have settled on Pigsy, for a couple of reasons:

It would all be similar style and accomplishing one narrative, which I like.

I researched it before the last project and have already laid some ground wrok for what I want which is:
Using imagery that combines east and west, which appeals to me muchos; focusing on upping my skilllls in music videos, and I love Monkey Journey to the West.

I have been thinking about doing something similar, although lacked the knowledge of how to do so, and I got super super jealous when I saw the video that I had not done it first. I saw the video a couple of weeks ago and peroused the internet in search of how it was done and today I actually applied myself to finding ohow it was done, and got the link to a blog with Ray Tintori walking us step by step how to:

Anywhoos. I like the Kanye video as well, a bit more clean. For My video I want it to tell a story, by using images. I thought and thought and thought and decided that datamosh was not right for the entire video. I don't like the idea of ripping off someone's work completely, for it is a style added when there is not that much content. Datamoshing seems like a western art form, thus I think it will be a nice addition to the music video, like in concentrated pockets of the video, instead of at every transition.


Now I am pretty much caught up on this thing, back to the board.
