Cum se vede jazz-ul avant-garde
Jazz-ul avant-garde poate fi inteles mai usor asa, nu?
Povestea animatiei si alte detalii, dupa clip.
Sensology is a short animated film by Michel Gagné that visualizes in abstract form, an improvised musical session by two leaders of the avant-guarde jazz movement, Paul Plimley (piano) and Barry Guy (bass). The music was recorded on November 9th, 1995, at the Western Front in Vancouver, Canada
The film was started in August 2006 and completed in July 2010. Many months of experimentation with various animation techniques lead to a grant from Art Partners in Creative Development and the creation of the live show Fixed Fragmented Fluid which will also make its way as a film at a later date.
Sensology was handdrawn (painted) with a Wacon tablet at first, and later, a Cintiq, using Adobe Photoshop. The drawings and frames were then composited and manipulated in a 2D software called Animo. There is no vector animation at any point in the film.
The animation was done stream of consciousness, one frame at a time at a rate of 30 frames per second.
Because a film needs to be 24 FPS in order to be submitted to the Academy, Michel had to create a new master which took quite a bit of creativity and effort in order to preserve as much of the animation as possible. Fortunately, the 24 FPS version looks good and nobody but him will ever see the difference.
The version posted here is 30 FPS, as it is YouTube’s prefered film rate.
A 9-second teaser of Sensology was posted on line in the Fall of 2006 and resulted in Pixar contacting Michel to do the abstract taste visualization for the film Ratatouille
The completed 6-minute short film, Sensology, premiered in Los Angeles at the Laemmle’s Fallbrook 7 in West Hills, CA on July 30th, 2010.

alreet, guys. analogia nu are niciun sens, motivul pentru care barry s-a bagat in asta e tacit. si daca asta e imaginea avant jazzului, imagine la care au lucrat din 2006 pana in 2010 (lol) ce se facea si in anii ’40-’50 – ishu patel si altii de la national board of canada anim – pacat de guy si de faptul ca singurul lucru misto aici e score-ul. divinizarea frumosului aka http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9SQuj-f28Us inaltator.

bine ai venit la grădinița noastră. căutăm educatori. :)
genul de educatori care pot face lucrurile aparent complicate (asa ca jazz’ul) sa para accesibile și pe înțelesul multora (poate eu nu sunt cel mai avizat. tot ce vreau sa fac e sa atrag oamenii spre genul asta de muzica. visuals sometimes could do the trick). tu ai vrea sa încerci? (asta daca nu o faci deja)
ceau bogdan :) eu m-am lecuit. toti ne plictisim la un moment dat.
nu vreau sa sun snobbish, dar la noi nici be-bop-ul nu e accesibil, iar, dupa cum stii probabil deja, muzica asta chiar nu e pe intelesul multora si e bine asa.
ai exemplu aici: http://www.npr.org/blogs/ablogsupreme/2009/09/jazz_now_introduction.html si multe altele. practic, tot fix pix au facut si ei. oamenii trebuie doar informati. iar cei cu astfel de preocupari o sa apara, in timp. e tot ce trebuie sa facem. si mai mult de atat, sa mergem la concerte. multumim pentru wetpaper’s two cents regarding ken and paal. mi-a placut ce ati scris pe aici.
alt bun exemplu de visual + impro: http://vimeo.com/8720234

s-ar putea sa ai prea multa dreptate. si mie mi-e frica de asta.
am zis sa încerc. chiar si pana in ziua in care m-oi plictisi.
din puținul jazz care îmi trece prin boxe..
(“muzica asta chiar nu e pe înțelesul multora” – nu cred ca noi cautam mult-ul. putin mai mult decât acum ar fi bine.)
oamenii trebuie informați. măcar atât și-s perfect de acord. sa-i informam, așadar.
mi-a părut și prins bine,
