Jeu

musical video clip

This is basically about transforming music (here a Prokofiev concert) in a soundtrack. And the chosen path is to do it in an abstract free of a story line way, freely playing with shapes which are always changing and adapting, colors (red, yellow, cyan) placed with different positions and effects and movement. So, experimentation is the key concept, and there are some interesting results from time to time.

I specially enjoyed that allusion to the dot painting of Seurat or Pissarro. It was very interesting the way the dots (red and yellow) moving over a cyan ton last plan created a great sensation of water fall, or moving water. Impressionists would have loved this.

The idea of circular motion in terms of composition (and in many individual elements inside that composition, like the initial numbers turning into other numbers by circular movement) is also interesting.

But all this lacked some unit and despite its less than 4 minutes long, it has (too many) partitions and unlinked portions. That's its flaw

My evaluation: 3/5 interesting as an experiment.

From game with ball near a pool to the art exposition , crowned by music concerto. All in frame of sergei Prokofiev music and beautiful references to Impressionists.

A game with viewer in which memories, cultural references, familiar stories are used for propose new perspective about ordinary every day realities.

But, I recognize, the Scherzo.of Concert.for pian.n. 2.opus 16 is the main attraction of this provocative ...game. Not only for the influence of music but for fair exploration of things who only music can real reveil in fair terms.

In short, a game, a trip, a remind, Jeu uses as nice definition of things crafting us.
