ok so I don't know how to upload a youtube video to my blog ( i know, but I'm not really into the whole youtube craze) so here is a link to a video of how I want my project to go. Like in my sketches the tree never really changes, but the things around the tress do change so here is somewhat of an exaple of what I would like to do with the movement and music minus the talking and that is a above the influence commerical

I tired to do my best and like Jen said, and story-board my idea.
I wan to start with a natural photograph and work that photo
through the different season, although when changing seasons the
image is also changing into a more technological state rather than just different
seasons in nature, but as nature changes so does the time in technology
I put another set of sketches down to show how I want to connect my images together sort of like a string that keeps moving.

I wanted to explore more with a moviemaker something like iShow (I want to become more familiar with that process, since I have only tried it last semester), but thought a documentary. I liked Jennifer’s comment about a montage of landscape photos but I am not sure that would be enough to complete my idea with the music. Maybe I could compose a somewhat slide show with the music and photographs? I looked at photographer Tina Barney and her documentary photography, her style is a then and now. She does pictures of people in the past and then pictures of them now or an up to date picture and puts them side-by-side. Sort of like what I would like to do with Mussorgsky’s music. Use the music Mussorgsky composed for the art back then, but use the music for my pictures composed today. I also researched some more and found David Claerbout he overlapped video and still photography. “He digitizes found photographs and then introduces moving elements, and with them, time. “ (My list Visual Arts Center, p 1) I found that interesting and thought maybe I could try this process (with some guidance of course) but with the photographs that I would create and introduce the moving element.
