The idea of a
jazz-structured narrative was tested by two users in April 2008. The shooting
time was decided to be one week, and during this time both of us were traveling
in Finland (Pori, Tampere) and abroad in Tallinn, Estonia, and Milan, Italy.
The set of rules were decided so that Marjo shot the first video and downloaded
it to the MoviE platform. Jari watched the video and tried to shoot a comment,
a variation, his own “solo video”, which might have something in common with
the first video – a rhythm, shape, image, theme etc. We wanted to test whether
it is possible to create a coherent, intense and motivated storyline out of
occasional video clips.
Video montage composed according to the structural model from jazz had lots of combinations, the clips varied the themes, such as ‘window’, ‘curtain’ or ‘movement’, and yet they created confrontation or were like visual commentaries. Also first test with MoViE showed that to be coherent and to create suspense the individual video clips have to be much shorter in order to give a certain rhythm to the narration.
