It's all right if you find my version of this project to be boring. You can even say so. Believe it or not, I intended this to be boring, and slightly annoying. I based this on my personal experiences living in Las Vegas. A year or two ago, I was suffering from strong fatigue that caused to me to sleep at least 14 hours a day. Coupled with this (or due to this), I was dealing with depression and anxiety. I quit my job, and I stopped going to school. I was embarrassed about my situation, and afraid that people would think I was just lazy. I hid in my apartment, compelled to sleep most of the day. When I woke up, I would lay in bed or on the couch, too tired to do anything but stare at the ceiling or out the window. It was very claustrophobic. Finally when the quiet rooms would weigh on me and I felt like I was going crazy, I would turn on music or get on my computer, anything to create some noise to distract from the ambience. So, for this project I attempted to catch the lethargic, closed in sensation of being trapped in your home, and trying to distract yourself.
I shot the video on a Canon 7D, edited it in Final Cut Pro, and created the page in Dreamweaver. The screen shot is awaiting a link.
