Ian Gardiner- Off The Track

Student Video Art Profile

Artist Statement
I’ve been in Chi-town for 4 months now…trying to figure this city out. What I’ve found so far is that I feel alive outside and off the track. That’s puney.

Movie Info
Title: Off The Track
Media: Mini DV/ Final Cut Pro
Length: 3:00:00

Overview
Two scenes were inspired by my favorite movie, Koyaanisqatsi by Godfrey Reggio. This was my second project with Final Cut and I think the hardest part was trying to keep things simple. For this screening, I ended up cutting about 85% of the footage. Otherwise, in terms of editing, I didn’t use any complex techniques because, first off, I don’t know how to, and secondly, I didn’t wat to take too much away from the musicians themselves.
