WEEK 5: Loops

 

The first loop that I chose was one that I saved a long time ago. This is a massive compilation of photos that all have a spherical focal point that changes size but not position as the photos change. The way the post was edited distorts time in a way and also disrupts any form of continuity that isn’t at the center of attention. There is a lot to unpack for this edit so I will let it speak for itself.

The next one is from someone named Caled Wielhouwer on TikTok, I am a huge fan of his camerawork and artistic vision. In this post, he created a montage that loops at the end with a slight matchcut. Each shot is in a different location, time, angle, frame, etc. There is a lot of discontinuity but Caled uses this to his advantage to really capture what he does as a creator.

The last loop is an infinite loop that uses smooth transitions to restart the sequence flawlessly. This loop makes it feel like no time is passing and is easy to watch multiple times without realizing that it is edited.
