LTP1984's RECommendations
This is a film I made a few years ago while I was in college. At least it is in part as I’ve recently gotten out the original footage, re-edited and tidied it up a bit.
At the time there wasn’t much of a music department and anything I tried to cobble together myself sounded like an announcement that the apocalypse had begun or, at the very least, the death throes of some poor creature. So I just used a song from my CD collection. Illegal to screen? Yes. Which explains why I’ve never shown it anywhere and why this clip is currently mute.
Anyway, I thought that maybe someone would like to have a go at scoring it and if this turns into a bigger collaboration in which people want to fiddle around with the footage or add their own - so be it. I would suggest a collaboration about dreamscapes but there are already some great projects with that idea, so let’s just see where we end up. I figure someone will find a use for the footage somewhere.
I’m not going to say what track I used, as I don’t want it to influence which direction you go in. I know this will be irritating as I did originally cut to the music.
Sorry about the lighting, focus problems and glaring continuity errors - I was learning. Hell, I still am!
Also - the dancer/acrobat is my talented sister Charlotte.

Stephanie sighed somberly. Stifled in her seventh story suite, she speculated schemes to sanction slipping away to a sociable Saturday soiree. Since splitting with Stanley, her surly and sly sometimes-steady sweetheart, Stephanie had stayed sequestered in solitude. She had sustained this stagnant stage of sorrow to its cessation. “Start smiling!” she scolded herself. “Set forth your sassy self!” Strengthened by spunky stubbornness Stephanie selected attire to suit her self-assured sentiment. Striding down the sidewalk she seemed splendid and satisfied. It sustained her satisfaction that several studs saluted her stunning self. She smiled serenely and slipped into a swanky saloon. “Sitting solo?” the server stipulated. Stephanie’s spirited swagger slackened, suddenly subsiding when accosted by scorn. However, she smoothly salvaged her sureness and smirked superciliously at the simple server, stating, “Certainly.” Seated solely, her single-status stood out strikingly in such surroundings. Stephanie made a steadfast struggle to discount the situation by seeming spellbound in the selections of sustenance. Suddenly, someone appeared alongside her seat. Startled, she stared skyward at the most stunning suitor. “Excuse the cessation of your solitude. I simply scorn seeing a sublime soul such as yourself sup solo. Since I am in a similar situation, suppose we sit side by side and seize our sustenance simultaneously?” Stephanie smiled, “I would certainly savor such sociability.” So seated, Stephanie soaked in a sociable Saturday soiree. She was satisfied to speculate that Samuel seemed a superior swain to Stanley. |

To the very cool tiny story, here is my picture of the boy with no imagination and his dog roy
I read the poem right before going on a meeting and just couldn't push it out of my head... I actually imagined them differently but these two simply doodled to life during the meeting. So I thought I'll post them on top of some quick-made background. :)

This is a song that I wrote about not being there when someone needs you. It's has an Indie Electronic sound and uses a celesta (which has become one of my favorite instruments), guitar, drums, and lots and lots of vocals. I would love to see a video use this or have it remixed, or anything else that inspires.
just a little sketch. i think it would look better in colour but i'm not very good in colouring so maybe someone wants to do that?
well, first i wanted to write "not impressed!" but that would have been too rude. you can't do that to sombody, especially not if that somebody wears a shirt like that.
by the way feel free to colour it again. i was high-spirited today so i chose ONE colour!
thanx to via who inspired me to do a sketch about this topic ;)
and thanx for the beautiful flower!
