Dare to be Sour

What an amazing video design. Something I have never seen before. The masters of this design are master of technology because when I watch this video I simply wonder, “how in the World did they put this together? Every time I watch this is moves me and makes me want to experiment and try this with my friends. I wonder is this simply done by web cams? Though web cams have been a major necessity when purchasing a computer. This is because nowadays people are looking toward different types of communication, simply like YouTube, where I also stumbled across this video with the help of a friend.

Parts of the video by the music group Sour do freak me out. It’s about 32 different web cams across the world and they are supposedly fans of this group. This video seems to have a liking or understanding of loving one another no matter who you are and of course sending a message through communicating thru YouTube. This video design could also be seen as making connections around the world coming from different places by bringing people together, which is what this group, Sour intentions were. Very positive I say.

Another video design Sour makes is thru making images out of shadows of just the hand. Now I remember when I was younger I used to make birds or other animals like foxes or bunnies because I thought that’s all you can make with shadow puppetry. The group Sour explains that you can do so much more with your hands in creating everyday images of what is normal to us. I can tell that this group Sour seek to find inspiration out of themselves by always striving for something different and cool that can reach out to there fans in a positive way. Also, by opening the door to other design dreamers out there to notice that there are others ways of getting a message delivered in videos other than just making regular music videos that we see on the television of the artist and their dancers.



Simply in the word of professor Housefield, “dare to be different” and this is exactly what the music group Sour is doing.
