thinking about routines and monotony
idea 1
Time lapse shot of my bike ride to and from school on a loop. i'm always going the same route for no reason. i would get at least three good takes at different times and put them together so the loop seemed more like a day by day documentation.
idea 2
Time lapse shot of immaculate conception church on a sunday, from inside and from outside if possible. i would need a lot of tape. i think it would be cool to see a church service in fast motion, and/or of people coming and going for all the different services that day.
i would want to project this footage next to time lapse shots of other places where people go on sundays - the park, the zoo, downtown, etc.
hmmm.. keeping the battery going would be a challenge. i could have a friend cycle charges and bring the fresh battery out to the shoot whenever it died.
idea 3
more time lapse. hit record every time i sit down at my computer or tv for a few days. i spend a lot of time at the computer especially. the shot would be from the side so you couldn't see what was on the computer screen. i might even set up a backdrop so all you see is a person in a space, facing one direction for a long time.
idea 4
move a bunch of boxes into a room and then move them back out. non time lapse

I think the 1st idea sounds interesting, because I also have a route I take for no reason.
Time lapse is just sounding good right now, sccince that's what I was going to do.
The first idea sounds good. Watching someone ride their bike and the route they take is intriguing especially with the time lapse
I like the second idea, it seems to be the strongest and I believe it will appeal to more people than something such as your daily ride to school.
i like the 4th idea. the idea about doing an activity that has absolutely no use or purpose. this is funny. now, what would be the sound element.
Idea 3 sounds quite interesting. Just make sure it's well-lit.
i like idea 2. I know the church your thinking of, and i think it would be interesting to see all the yuppie catholics moving in and out of that building.
