dpletts Posted May 30, 2011 Report Posted May 30, 2011 Full Fathom Five is not the normal slide shows of pretty pictures etc but is intended to be an immersive (please forgive pun) audio-visual experience using found (thanks to Google) photos and paintings etc along with my own mixed soundtrack..

coopernatural Posted May 30, 2011 Report Posted May 30, 2011 David,A refreshing look and dip into the world aquatic.Not chained as most are,by convention or conditioning,its excellent work.I envy your sound creation skill which as always,adds to the mood and feel.Sometimes I will watch an AV a couple of times to get the feel for it.I watched this 3 times in a row,picking up something different each time.I actually got the feeling that this could be the title track to the start of an Audio/Visual album.I should have minded the screen size used,but didn’t.An added bonus is that the flat earthers just won’t get it.Well done,Davy Quote
Ken Cox Posted May 30, 2011 Report Posted May 30, 2011 Daviddifferent to say the least - couldn't wait to see what next you had found!you and DavyC must have went to the same school did not find it objectionable at allken Quote
dpletts Posted May 31, 2011 Author Report Posted May 31, 2011 Thank you for your kind remarks, Davy and Ken.I find that by using PTE I can be quite expressive and 'different'. I not so sure about an album, though, Davy. Not sure that I have that much imagination.As for the soundtrack I have quite a large library of ready-made loops and samples and instruments which makes finding something suitable easy, but having so many brings it's own problem of actually finding the right sound. But it's great fun.Ken, there certainly does seem to be some meeting of minds between Davy and myself.David P Quote
Paulcl Posted May 31, 2011 Report Posted May 31, 2011 Hi DaveI couldnt find anything not to like. We are creating art and although there is always art that is not to our taste the creation of that art must be appreciated and the creator praised for his efforts. Any form of art should be free of any constraints and not follow formulas made by others.Well done.I liked it.RegardsPaul Claridge Quote
dpletts Posted May 31, 2011 Author Report Posted May 31, 2011 Thanks for your appreciation, Paul.I wouldn't wanted to use the word 'art' in relation to my work (I feel it would be rather pretentious), but, I believe a slide show is in itself an art form, which I rather like to explore.Cheers,David P Quote
SheilaG Posted June 6, 2011 Report Posted June 6, 2011 Hi David,I've just watched your sequence ............ I really love it!!I like the whole package and think it works beautifully. It's a perfect length ....... leaving us disappointed that there isn't more, instead of fidgeting as we wait for the AV to get to the end!Regards,Sheila G Quote
Delicate Posted June 6, 2011 Report Posted June 6, 2011 DavidSo many things keep me busy this summer (bad excuse), but I just had to reply and say this was a great audio-visual.I especially liked the chose of pictures and the transitions.And the mysterious audio mix (and a story I'm not very familiar with) did put the whole thing together perfectly...Thanks,Jan Quote
dpletts Posted June 8, 2011 Author Report Posted June 8, 2011 Sheiia G and Dan,Many thanks for your appreciative remarks.Sheila, I believe that leaving people wanting more is a successful ploy, which I inadvertently employed.Cheers,David P Quote
