Project 4-Emulation

While creating my video emulation, I wanted to make it personal, but also something fun. Figured if I didn't know what I was doing, might as well make something that would one way or another make me smile. The artist I chose to emulate was William Wegman, with an excerpt from the video, Selected Works (excerpt). This "Two Dogs One Ball" excerpt from this video caught my attention because honestly, it involved dogs, and I have an obsession with my dog. ,I enjoyed that my one dog, being compared to Wegman's two dogs, was really humorous to me. The fact that the two dogs were different in every way intrigued me, and made me smile. The choice to add audio, while the original had no sound, was simply because I thought it was a requirement. If I thought I could have left out the audio, I would have. I chose to make the video black and white, since the original was black and white, and filmed where I could find a simple background, as the video as well. I also used a ball to catch the pug's attention, as Wegman did in his video with his dogs.

(The second video posted is not Selected Works, but it is the part of Selected Works that I chose.)
