Remember the Warm Summer Past – Experiment Video

 

The video I created uses sound as a key factor in shaping emotion, specifically to convey the feeling of missing the warmth and beauty of summertime. Sound was carefully chosen to create a sense of nostalgia and comfort, allowing the viewer to emotionally connect with the visuals. Along with sound, I used smooth and intentional movements to create clean transitions between scenes, helping the video feel cohesive and natural rather than abrupt. These transitions support the emotional flow and reinforce the calm, reflective tone of the piece. Marshall McLuhan’s quote, “We are enveloped by sound,” reveals how sound surrounds us and influences the way we experience media. In this video, sound acts as more than background noise; it immerses the viewer and guides their emotional response. Together, sound and movement create an atmosphere that reflects longing for summer, and the feelings associated with its warmth and beauty. I used my phone camera and video from about 3 years ago to create this.
