Gordie gets sentimental

Wednesday, July 1st, 2009

Here is the introductory video for my “A House No Longer My Home” project, with the audio tweaked from the original version presented in class:

I plan on posting a series of videos about my house to this blog. It’s my hope that doing this project will make the process of moving out of the place that my parents left me a bit easier. I’m also going to tweak this intro a little more as I go through my family’s photo albums and scan in more old photos.

Thanks to Gabe for all the knowledge, support, and inspiration, and to my classmates for setting such a high bar with their work. Video for New Media cost me more than a few sleepless nights, but the experience was well worth it!

Emily, Milena, Sebastian, and Gordie make a Documentary

Thursday, June 4th, 2009

Here is the final cut of “53rd & 3rd”, the video documentary I made with Emily Ryan, Melina Selkirk, and future ITP Rookie of the Year Sebastian Buys about the corner in NY that Dee Dee Ramone made famous. The idea for the subject came from Milena, who is herself a rock star and song writer and so has a lot of connections in the music scene. Our professor Gabe Barcia-Colombo assigned the groups, and I was fortunate to be partnered with Milena, Emily, a rock star in her own right with whom I have collaborated on many other projects, and Sebastian, an incoming first year student who showed himself to be a true ace.

I saw you in the grocery store on 14th st. today. I forget the name of the grocery store but it is next to a Duane Reade. We made lots of eye contact and you said Hello to me. You are very attractive. I’d love to meet sometime soon. Tell me what you were wearing or what i was wearing so i know it’s you.
