I'm not a goth, just to clarify. It's not some thing I do on the weekends... just this particular weekend. So that little slip in the middle of the video where files say "GOTH 2 SV" that was for a goth themed music party that some friends of mine put on this weekend. With my newly found handy-dandy photoshop capabilities, I have been taking a lot more photos. Here are a couple highlights from the goth party, Goth 2.0 Speak Volumes style. Check out their website http://speakvolumesmedia.com/ they're pretty cool and stuff. (Quick publicity shout out). You should go to these parties, or check out the new zine coming out. Here's the last one:
I had fun with the effects on my camera to try and create a gothic environment (still dark, lots of reds and oranges) and messing with lighting, but still get decent shots of the people. I'll post photos once I get clearance to do so :)
Okay here's my video.
Sorry about the length.
Also, This came back around today. So there's that. Enjoi!
Hello Natalie! I enjoyed your video. The Screencast was particularly helpful because I was able to follow along (and take notes for creating the squares to make the text more apparent). I wanted to specifically comment on your images though. The image you focused on in this video, and the image in the post, "The Infamous Place" are awesome. I could easily see your designing technique used for album art covers commercially. The Lord Huron photo (which I'm listening to as I write this) demanded attention. There's a place for art that is aesthetically pleasing, and there is a place for art that doesn't let you look away: this image did both. I actually began listening to Bon Iver because I found their simple album artwork while walking through the CD section at Target intriguing. I'd stop for your image too. Bravo.
