Audio Visual work

Audio visual work:

30 second Interview:

What is the inspiration of your sound?

Growing up Chensu was raised on quite a variety of music from Nirvana to Otis Redding, but Chensu really fell in love with noise rock and shoegaze in their early teens. we love the way a guitar can express so much emotion, especially in the walls of sound created by Dinosaur Jr and the soundscapes created by Candy Claws.

What is the message behind the song?

Chensu really feels that each person can interpret this song and take their own meaning from it, but personally, drunk walk home is a middle finger up to gender norms and an expression of the consequences, particularly on mental health. Mental health is a big thing for Chensu and especially in the lockdown we are currently in and Chensu felt it was really important to represent in the imagery of the music video.



My Audio visual work is a 1 minute interview with my artist, for this I used audio animation and a voice modulator to add to the secrecy of my artist, but added more visual elements such as pictures to still make the video worth watching. For the intro and questions I used a similar technique to my Music Video intro in creating a glitch effect on top of a static image, which I created in photoshop.

Final push

 One of the last drafts:

Utilising an old TV I created this effect where the music video more explicitly reflects a mental state, with the tv reflecting as a visual representation. Screens within screens are also reflect Andrew Goodwin's work on voyeurism and screens within screens.

This effect intertextualises this picture by Shawn Paul:


As the TV is old I had to connect the screen through a series of cables, converting the scar to AV cables and then the AV cables to HDMI which I then could connect an old computer. Due to the over complicated process of this, the video lost colour. I liked this effect however and decided to keep it.
