EXPERIMENTAL MEDIA
This is a proposal for my experimental media project. NAME: Clay Sandford
TITLE OF PROJECT: Void Dive SYNOPSIS: A deep sea diver sinks ever deeper into the dark depths of the ocean, reflecting on his past while encountering various forms of deep sea life and ultimately coming to accept his place amongst them. OUTLINE OF PROJECT: I wish to present my project as an instillation in a dark, enclosed environment that will evoke a sensation of sinking underwater. I will utilize lights and blue gels, one on each side of the stage and one on the roof to create a sense of depth and a smoke machine to add a touch of moisture and density to the air. I will draw on and scratch 16mm film stock to create a sense of sinking ever deeper below the waves. This will be played on the cinema screen in a loop. I would also like to project images of the haunted and savage deep sea life that resides in the dark depths onto the screen periodically throughout the runtime of the instillation. I will play underwater field recordings through two speakers, stereo panning from above the screen to below in order to further enhance the sensation of sinking. LOCATION WITHIN CUBE: I would like to use the stage at the Cube, enclosed in black curtains, to present my instillation. DURATION: 2-3 minutes played on a loop for 40-60 minutes, possibly before main screening begins. EQUIPMENT NEEDED: Cinema screen, projector, smoke machine, 3 lights (possibly stage lights) each with automatic dimmer switches, blue lighting gels, 2 speakers to place above and below screen, audio player to play field recordings from.
