Live: Now with sound!

Basically taking the video from the last project (with a few changes), I was able to create music and include it along with the video. I used music software from Mixcraft 6 and Ableton Live. I was very happy with the way the song added to the video, since that is what I spend most of my free time doing...making music. My goal with the sound of this song was to make the listener feel like they are in outer space, since the planets in this picture inspired me. Though my editing skills through photoshop need some work, I think overall the music makes it 10 times better. Enjoy!

Walter Benjamin Reading Questions

Question 1: In Section V, it states that art is valued and received on different planes. I wonder what is the one element that decides its value. Is it up to the eyes of the buyer to determine its worth?

Question 2: Hearing about what it is like for an actor or actress to be in front of a movie camera gave me more insight on how I interpret movies. Lots of movies today use tricks to confuse the audience into thinking the movie is as real as possible. How do you feel when you watch an actor on the screen? Do you ever think about what it is like from their point of view?
