25 Project Ideas

1. Six Degrees of Drunkenness
“Mockumentary” featuring the types of drunks: such as happy, angry, and sleepy.
2. Shapeshifting Parkour
Person in green jumpsuit runs around campus and downtown doing flips and shit. Green jumpsuit will be chroma keyed in Final Cut Pro and replaced with shapeshifting abstract patterns
3. Flash Mob Compilation
A collage of flash mob videos to create one huge virtual flash mob or perhaps the title.
4. Surveillance/Voyeur Live Facebook
Crowds of people and passerbys doing ordinary things. However, text pops up above them in 3D as a live status update.
5. StompClap Live Music
Video of people stomping and clapping to create rhythm. However, instead of having the actual sounds project out, actual instrumentals and percussions will project out.
6. Beer Pong Portal
Players throw ping-pong balls into red cups. Instead of the cups having a “bottom,” the cups turn out to be portals leading to actual red cups. Akin to playing mini golf.
7. Reverse Sobriety
Reversed clip of an alcoholic’s night, focusing on the sobering process. Split screen to a parallel metaphor.
8. Apples and Oranges
Stop motion of apples and oranges having a battle on the kitchen counter. Would involve lots of “air” shots.
9. Synchronized Man and Music
Ambiguous take on daily life and how routine actions create a music-box song…or maybe how a music-box song creates routine actions.

Spoof of “Real-Time Inception” YouTube video. Shows how time passes by for a sober person, tipsy person, drunk person, and a passed-out person.
11. How to Create Video Art
DIY video of how to create the ultimate video art. Includes step-by-step instructions on music and editing.

15. Falling Asleep

16. Sleeping Bag Catapillar
