Inclement Video is a project designed to keep myself perpetually in the process of image gathering. I will try to write something about each video but can't promise this entirely.

7.26.10 Bicycle Race

7.26.10 Bicycle Race from Hettie Kauffman on Vimeo.



Originally I strapped my Harinezumi 2 onto the frame of my bike near the wheel so that it was focused on the spinning spokes but the impact of riding over bumps in the road was too much for the camera and so none of the footage came out at all. At about mid way through my ride home from work, I switched the camera to facing backwards just behind my seat which is the footage I ended up using. I think the lens flares are pretty nice. If you listen closely you can hear music in the background- Quarantined Past. I love my bike rides home- it's a nice chance to decompress from the day. 90 degrees, 30 degrees- it doesn't matter, it's always great.

First video. I am realizing that most of the shooting will be done with my Harinezumi 2 for sake of ease. This video is a combining of conversations I'd had a few days prior. Special thanks to Jax Deluca for agreeing to let me use her Communication Vault sound at will for this and, I'm sure, many up coming videos.
