This was the first project where I had as much control of the story as the available footage and my time would allow. This was very liberating.
I decided that the story was about something seemingly obscure and meaningless, but which could actually become greater as the characters went ahead with their friendship.

Learning Avid Media Composer, this is what I came up with. Thanks guys for the footage!

This edit is an attempt at something more experimental/ avant-garde.

Love is like the truth, sometimes it prevails, sometimes it hurts.

In this film I tried to edit the footage of people getting to know eachother in a completely different context.
The original footage depicts two people getting to know each other but I decided to challenge myself and edited the shots to depict a deep relationship between these two characters that perhaps had a fight or perhaps are growing apart but their love ultimately overcomes their issues.
The song is by artis Ljósvaki.
