Inner Text

Live action footage and editing by Amy Auman

A play on words, Inner Text takes conversation in and out of the digital and physical spaces it inhabits. This video explores the relationship between words and meaning, and words and space.  The main character (played by me) initially expresses a gumption for boldness, but ultimately loses steam as reality shifts. The camera focus zooms closely in on a digital text message, which then becomes a deep hole from which the character emerges. The text transitions once again to physical paper before re-entering the screen world. Quirky and humorous in tone, the video contains minimal but accentuated audio in order to create a soundscape for this strange environment created by altering the familiar.
