B.I.G. Kaleidoscope, by joelaz

I’m having fun trying to learn the basics of video editing.  On my walk home yesterday, I decided to shoot a clip with my low-quality point & shoot digicam and challenge myself to make something out of it when I got home to post here.  The footage wasn’t interesting aside from a bunch of cool textures from brick & tile walls and some metal gates that I passed.  So, I decided that the best chance to salvage it was to apply a horizontal & vertical mirror effect and make it into an abstract kaleidoscope thing.  At least the soundtrack is good (Notorious B.I.G. + Ratatat).

Update: if the player isn’t working, watch it on Vimeo.
