direct link: Joani Paige at Free Times Cafe
Joani Paige, singing "So Fine," with Willie Anicic on harmonica near the end, and Pat Kelly on percussion (not in camera range) at Free Times Cafe on September 16, 2011.
Brenda Clews: camera and video editing. Yes, I took my camera and then spent the greater part of the weekend video editing.
You'll see that around 3:39min, the mask is apparent. The musician leans down out of it and into the light. If you didn't recognize the masking all the way through, you would at that point. It is obvious. I left it in to show the artifice in the art.
Here is a photograph showing my Final Cut filters, and you can see I manually keyed in the lights, their opacities, which took forever. To make sure that you see Joani throughout, I created another layer of her track and masked it. In the photograph, you can see there is yet another track where Willie is also masked.
A theme of masks seems to be running through my work, and this type of masking is yet another dimension to it.
A mask that lets you see the person who is being masked.
