Bill Viola by Sara

White noise, adds to meditating. Subtle details. Bill is old been around since the dawn of video art. Watching it now: i find the plane disconcerting, plane circling, lots of tension, him floating is rly weird. the pool is weirdly calming, subtle thing secure it, like the leaves falling, intentional strange cuts of scenes in the same angle people in the water. reversing some ripples, darkening it, manipulating it, weird... i love it, him getting out naked it a cool twist. is this a memory of him in the pool? cool... how did he do that? easily?

Spike Lee by William

Tackles controversial topics, lighting and dialogue to get that 'in your face' aspect of the film. shows emotion of New York at the time, Edward Norton is AMAZING!! but he really plays the same role a lot, messed up troubled male out of touch. patriotic imagery, to tying in subtly 9/11 an people's diverseness. dramtic lighting, i love the steady cam when the girl enters. i liket he different colors used in the lighting, i love this floating allusion.
