Tutorial with Angie made me realise how unclear I am about what I'm trying to say. What is the relationship between ourselves and our universe? Exactly what is my take on it? I am trying to discombobulate, to cause discomfort and unease. Things are never what they seem.
Think about the relationship or narrative between the images. I've been sequencing them but maybe I just need two separate that can be projected or shown next to each other and which speak to each other, have a dynamic.Angie spoke about a crying eye and a lemon for example, and the eye slicing episode in Chien dAndalou. The head louse and eye work together as does the lips and nit.
Things that aren't surreal as such but are subversive, not what you would expect and which create discomfort and provoke a visceral reaction.
Maybe use separate ways to show them grouped together. A Mac, an iPad, an iPhone. Or two or three images at once on one screen. Ask Martin how to do this, or John. Also try a vignette effect on the images. Take a screen grab of Premiere still, open in Photoshop, create layer the right size and make a transparent circle, ( save as PNG I think ?) and add to Premiere as second video. When played together there should be a central circle. Does layer have to be black?
Also maybe a projection and a real object? Either projected onto or shown beside.
Don't underestimate the audience. Be subtle.
What and why? Be careful, simple and eloquent.

Police head cams influence behaviour of wearer and public for the better.
Also think about audio: slurpy squelchy body sounds?
