For this task I drew inspiration from Martin Arnold, Peter Tscherkassky or Christian Marclay who’s work utilised existing film footage and used editing to mess with and distort the viewers perception of the footage. I began by sourcing clips from films that contained symmetry. Inside premiere pro, I used the rotation tool and key-framed it so that the footage would rotate throughout. I then nested the sequence and duplicated it with different rotation keyframes. The purpose of the video, was to expand on the existing footage and turn it into an abstract piece which uses the existing symmetry with the rotation to give the video a hypnotic and transfixing aesthetic. I liked how the work I looked at experimented with things like, frame-rate and reverse playback wanted to incorporate it within my film.
