I don't make films, films make me. This one helped me to further realize my inescapable ingestion of media. The media frenzy must be seriously considered before the damage to our psyche is irreparable. "Take II" is a film that is about me and my life as a filmmaker. It can be about many other things; such as, society, media, or green environment but all these things are included in me, the individual. I've worked with video for fifteen years and had many experiences along the way. The video in the center of the screen was a State Finalist video that I made back in 1995. The opening image is a different variety of feedback which was recorded in 1992. I've also included my two fecal matter film experiments in this film; which I created in 2007. These two elements bring my experience together into one film because the end credits are over my newest endeavor. Furthermore, I added in some footage from the 1939 film, "The City" mostly because it was part of my original idea. Also, I left it in the final film because the shots of the car crash, the people eating and the trees passing overhead seemed to capture the ever present inner struggle I've been having between nature and technology.
This film is the beginning of my journey into a new movement in art and expression, called the Bowel Movement. I've started this as a way to express my inner universe. Right now, the world as being in a great state of transformation. Only a couple year ago, I was wonderfully influenced by the Qatsi Trilogy and lately by many experimental films, too numerous to mention. The notable thing here is that I've been moved by experimental film and I want to help others to achieve their own personal release. I think the human race is in a stage of transformation where we are mere turds floating in a sewer pipe with a destiny to be fertilizer for the future of the earth. In other words, even though things don't seem so grand with all that's going on in the world, just remember that even the turd has a purpose in the larger scheme of things and is not just waste to be flushed away without any further consideration. Enjoy the images.
