EXcellent Mike! That is what I have in mind. Yes, Flagstick has an informercial favor to all his videos, but like the scenic clips or the Tullybannocher video, one can see the huge potential in the cinema-video approach. I noted that the courses list with the stills are shots taken from the HD video. My computer screen doesn't look as good as my large HD screen TV, but the medium for this sort of thing seems like it is the way we will examine GCA in the future. We already have had very fun pieces form Gil Hanse about the course they did in Scotland, where they chronicaled the on-going work. If the quality of the HD is good, we can have the added voice over explanations of what the videographer wants to call to our attention. With narrative and great scenes, I think this can exceed the power of the still photos eventually. Right now, great photos still have the high seat of photographic art. But, I think with the HD world just in the early stages, and 3D looming, that will be where all the artistic action will go.
Of course there have been great artist cinematographers for a very long time, as well as highly praised videographers. But, I can imagine a time when people will go to a gallery like we now go to see stills hanging, and their will be HD and maybe 3-D screens all over, and shorts of all manner of artistic subjects, shot with all manner of video techniques.
But, you don't surprise me Mike, being the old rocket scientist you are.
You were probably all over this years ago already.
The future is so bright, I think we'll have to where 3-D glasses.
