JOURNAL#12

12. Your life is a movie. Describe the first 15 minutes.

The opening credits are in a sophisticated typographic style, as the title of each profession branches off into the person's name of specified profession of who pitched in the movie in a ticking matter to symbolize the wasting of time. The movie appears as animated with an experimental style consisting of coloured blobs synthesized together to form a general shape that are vivid in contrasting elements; however executed succefully in a surreal and consitent flow in understandment of symbols that can be intrepreted as a human in the foreground. The ambience in the background consists of aesthetic static and ringing sounds that are sampled from television sets that do not function in its intended purpose, and cooperates with the visual background of neon colored blobs on predominantly black as they  break bonds with the beats. The symbolic form of the human appears to be hanging its head down as running drops drip off its head, splashing to the ground into a cyan mess. The screen then rotates in a way the head seems to face forward, yet gravity has not changed in course of the rotation; therefore making the head look like it's shooting blobs off its eyes straight forward. The camera then pans in a close frontal view of the face. Eyes open for a second before zooming in quickly in the pupil to commence the first sequence of reflections in the past as a line of windchimes ring like hell.
