_Final cut & edit

_Progress

I started to experiment with finalised model and with videos out of it. Aim was out of the selected visually interesting looking videos design a video based on the lines that I outlined from the buildings. Conceptual outcome would be video which visually would represent the buildings, by following lines on the paper I'm going through the same outlining method, where on the paper it would turn out to be repeated layer of landscape view, but, if translated in film language, it creates a whole new space.
Here is a few tests/unfinished outcomes:

Below is video outcome of vertical left and horizontal top going lines that I followed. It proves to be interesting, although I am tempted to stop here and not over do it by layering again. This video means half of my whole lines, so if I wanted to finish whole building outline it would be double layers of what I have here.
Colour tones still needs to be adjusted. Tried to edit the colours layer by layer but it turned out to be that some of the details gone lost, so will need to edit the colouring right after I have a final outcome, going still by still.


Here is how it looks with only one layer- lines going horizontal.


That's how it turned out to be with colours blacked out- some of the intesting details in film lost it's beautiful quality.



Still needs to be done:
Colour edit.
Sort out frame size format as I can't figure out why video still stays in a black frame after trying many many options.

_Soundtrack

Finally after long searches for soundtrack I discovered what is perfect for the video. Although video is still in progress of post editing, I already have an outline of the video tracks that follows the timeline. I have horizontal and vertical motion- and vertical mainly turned out to be very consistent 3s film- 1s blackout-3s film line, which gave a perfect rhythm to the overall video. So following such a rhythm, I was able to find this :



Another possibilities was:
Ellen Allien- Bim
Autechre- Dropp
Autechre- Foil
Autechre- Windwind
Autechre- Dael/Creeping

It suited the theme I was going for, this futuristing cyber creepy feel, but felt that something was still missing. And probably it was rhythm that was missing.

_Questions

Having 10 layers inside of each film-layer. (dependant on line strokes)
4 film-layers (left/right vertical, top/bottom horizontal).

Will it not be visual chaos layering them together?
But having 2 layers only will not complete the whole building outline?

_Test

Previous attempt to test and film the outlines. Inverted version.

_Plans

Here I started to code film - transfer film into lines or vice versa- transfer lines into film.
Previously I outlined existing landscape to create a new space within by extracting contours of the buildings and separating/distorting them- placing into perspective to have sense of depth of field to it.
Now what I want to do- to translate this space into film which involves timing. What would happen if I would take an outline of the buildings to be my outline for video timing- length of the lines directinging the timing of each video.
I took videos with horizontal and vertical motion, that will be used depending on what lines I will need to define.
So now I figured out that whole length has 60 squares. I want to make a 3mins film, it means that each square is 3s long. Depending on that, I will do video of each of the lines layer (horizontal left/right; vertical left/right) .
Some of the lines going along together at the same time- that would mean that it overlays in my timeline and will be as multiplied layers (depending on how many lines).
Later on I thought of joining all films together into one- this way I would have all layers of lines transfered into film layers and by multiplying them I would create a same space that was in reality (because I followed the same outline) but a new filmic experience.
