This video is a small collage of videos that I have done with my sons. It's not all of the videos we've done but it's a few of them showing the progression of our at-home activities. We love to create together and both of my sons are interested in different aspects of the film industry. My oldest son and I act together and have made a couple films since we've started the venture. We create skits, films, and many other fun things that pertain to filming almost nonstop. I decided to work with this video because of what it shows, an evolution. The last video in the series of videos is something I captured while doing another video my oldest son was helping me with. As I was filming and directing, I noticed my youngest son taking a liking to the camera. He was watching what I was doing and mimicking me. I let him take over for the filming and I recorded the situation. My youngest was directing and being the cinematographer while my oldest was acting. I can see a future where we are all making films together and fully collaborating in different aspects of the filmmaking process.
I was inspired by Ryan Trecartin and one of his films in particular, "A Family Finds Entertainment." It shows multiple people in a family doing various activities that entertain them. This made me think about my own family and what we do to entertain ourselves. I feel what we do to entertain ourselves is going to be something we build on for today and our futures.
