Well, it seems that this is the month of video for Feminist Pornographer. My ishotmyself.com video debuted this week. To see it, click here, sign up for a membership if you don’t already have one, and search for my ISM screen name: Philomena.
The video was inspired by Richard at ishotmyself suggesting that my pencil test pictures from my May 2010 blog post would make a great subject for a video. So if you’d like to see my pencils in action, check it out.
I am really really pleased with how it turned out. I wasn’t so sure I would be so pleased with it because I didn’t have control of the the final editing. I put in a lot of time to editing the video I submitted — trimming out ends of the clips where I was futzing around with the remote and turning the camera on and off, and splicing the clips together to make one single video to submit. When it debuted, and I logged in, I was more than a little worried that I’d be disappointed if the ISM folks’ further editing changed it too much. But man, oh man, their editing was fuckin’ awesome. They stayed completely true to my vision but just made it cooler — doing fancy things like editing my voice over different parts of the video.
