Experimental project - post 8 - influenece/research Strange Lights

Earlier on in the year we were shown a documentary called Strange lights (2010), this was a highly experimental approach to documentary that utilised time lapse imagery of the night sky, and moving light trails. Taking a guess I would say that the night time stars would have been taken with a stills camera mounted on a track, that would take a series of photos over a period of time, which were then edited together to create a time lapse effect, showing the stars moving across the sky, creating a moving image. The light trails going through the encampment were probably recorded in similar ways so as not to create too much image noise by recording moving image at night. These techniques will be utilised during our experimentation, creating movement through light, so as to establish the feeling of another world, without the irritation of noise and grain.
