Weekly Blog Post: Shadows

I saw this video a little while ago. It's basically a video of some basic skateboarding tricks but instead of filming the person, they have filmed their shadows instead. It seems rather confusing at first but once you start watching it for a couple of seconds your eyes will adjust. I love the amount of creativity in this. The amazing colours from the sun that reflect off of the pavement, mixed with the distortion of the figure and a mysterious song Give it a dream like state. We cast a shadow almost all of the time yet we never seem to realize its beauty. This video has inspired me to be more observant in hopes of finding more creative angles when I'm out filming. I would love to create a video of my own with something like this.
