FORCES VIDEO

And what a force the camera becomes, framing whatever's been captured as forms of performance. Most of the capture focuses on the face, the head; exerts force there, much less on feet, knees, rear ends.

Forceful framing, to be approaching sureness.

Note what apparently offers support to the head in the still starting shot of the movie: books, a nod, if you will, to intellectual endeavor and accomplishment since the books exist, perhaps even books that may be called texts, sources to rely on for the information that will assist in the framing of meaning --intellectual forces.

The still image is weighted toward the books --the head there, away from the apparently aesthetic partial poster; the color more saturated and intense on the side on intellectual leaning, intellectual gravity pulling meaning and purpose in that direction. the books seeming a waste product of the head as well as support for the head.

Much to consider here, including the forces at work in the making of this revealing, this forcefulvideo.
