Av Club: Thinking and Doing Moving Images – WILD EaRNESt, spring 2021 (online)
This year we took a closer look at theory and the history of online and social media videos with visiting lecturer Helena Aleksandrova. The visiting lecturer Marloes Van Son introduced us to sounds as part of the audiovisual experience. The lecture of Rozan Van Klaveren introduced us to the concept of our innerwilds and the use of 360 camera technology. From these elements and from following the earnest work of the students the title of this exhibition emerged: WILD EaRNESt.
This year the student’s works range from essay documentaries, to short fictions, to CGI animations, and to experimentations on the online format. One work even tries to cause you bodily experiences. Some works are the first steps on making moving images, while others are works by students who have had previous experience. Nevertheless, as a teacher it has been very pleasing to follow the development of each student.
I hope you enjoy these works as much as I have enjoyed teaching this course! I want to thank all the students for their excellent work.
