For my first project I decided to work on a video game remix. I was trying to decide what game I should remix. Should I do something like Call of Duty, or something a little darker? The game I chose to remix is Batman: Arkham Asylum. The reason I chose this game is because there were many more characters that could be used as inspiration, and the character I decided to focus on was the Joker. I chose the joker because he is ambiguous and unpredictable. You never know what he is going to do, because he is crazy.
I edited the project in VideoPad. My gaming console doesn’t have internet capabilities, so what I had to do was download someone else’s captured gameplay and edite it to completely change it to make my point. In the original video there was very heroic music playing in the background, but I didn’t like that because the Joker is not a hero. The Joker is a villain and the music should reflect the different characteristics of that character. The song I chose is, Piano Piece #1, Op. 23. The reason I chose this was because it was written using a 12-tone technique. I expect not many people will like my choice of music, but that is what I want. The joker is not a character that for which you should root, he is someone to despise. Another way that helps the video be unpleasant is the blurry quality. This was unintentional at first, but I decided that it helped get my point across.
