Big Cock on Parliament Hill

HD Video , 36 seconds, colour, 2012

The Filmpool hosted a talk/workshop by animator Luigi Allemano (sponsored by the National Film Board) that I attended on November 6, 2011. Also in attendance was Adrian Dean who volentered to pose for a walking sequence that Luigi frame captured to demonstrate some methods of matching rhythm of image to sound. I also photographed Adrian from where I was sitting. Without green screen, I did some crude cutting out of him from the wall and added the rooster sock puppet to the top in place of his head. I put the parliament grounds behind him, footage I'd shot when I was in Ottawa for a Council jury in 2011. The pitiful voice, trying desperately to be funny, is unfortunately mine. VIDEO
