Set to Sound

Have you ever listened to a piece of music and immediately knew that it was meant to be set to a film? This happens to me a lot. The ideas usually hit me on the first listen, and once that idea is planted in my brain, it's very hard to get it out. Inception.

There are three songs in particular that have been driving me nuts only because I can see the films unfolding in my head and knowing I'm limited in almost every aspect of filmmaking. Time. Equipment. All I have are ideas. So in order for me to stay somewhat sane, I am sharing these ideas with you.

Do me a favor when you listen to these songs and not look at the video/picture.

1. Intro - The xx
Two words: Time lapse

2. Zayna Jumma - Group Doueh
Reserved for when I'm in Africa filming a documentary. Yes, it's a big "when." But it will happen...eventually.

3. Amor Fati - Washed Out
The soundtrack to the upcoming summer adventures. The ideas I have for this video are actually tangible. Making this is going to be much more planned out and strategic than last year's attempt.

Looks like I couldn't stay away from blogging for too long eh? lolol
