Adrift

Took this video at my cottage this weekend with the help of my dad and my neighbors, including their daughter Erin who agreed to play the lonely drifter for me. This is sort of an expansion on the idea I had previously created in this photo, but in video version. I’ve been trying to transition into video these past few months, and I’ve been reading a lot and learning a bunch of new programs. It’s such a complicated art form, mostly because it incorporates almost ALL the other art forms…I still have so much to learn! So please forgive the lack of steadiness in the camera- I didn’t have a tripod and I was in water!

Crazy story- somewhere along the course of shooting and then editing this photo I must have come in contact with something unusual as I had an anaphylactic reaction and had to be rushed to the hospital! My lips and throat started swelling up and I got hives all over me- and it kept coming back every 4 or so hours when my Benadryl started running off. How frightening! Especially because I’ve never had one before and I have no idea what it could have been. Thankfully, everything turned out okay- they gave me lots of drugs and I ended up finishing the editing while lying in the E.R.. Oh the adventures that come along with shooting!
