Empty Vessel: Rough Cut Self Crtit

Trinity Poole
Midterm Project
Empty Vessel: 3/30/11

The main character is emotionally detached and unable to sustain relationships, and faces inner turmoil because she feels she cannot change.


I want this piece to evoke empathy from the audience, and for them to relate to the main character.

This project came about because of a mixture of personal experiences, and is important to me because I concentrate on self-portraiture in my photography, so the progression for me was to perform in a film.

I feel that the theme has become more about self-isolation.

The main conflict or tension is that there is no resolution; the character continues a self-defeating cycle.

Problem areas: Cutting the video down to the time limit, and being able to include enough material without taking away from concept and visuals. Technical troubles and frustrations… Lost several audio clips and had to redo them, and files kept going offline. Files kept needing rendering, it seemed like I did that 5 or 6 times. I don’t know if I missed something and was doing something wrong.
