Description:

Our mind is always full of all kinds of thoughts. They are always there, even if we often don’t realize it. These can be thoughts of obligations, awaiting us to be checked off the schedule, thoughts about our past, our closest friends and family, events … They can be positive or negative.

We can change our reality by changing the way we think – this is when we step out of the vicious circle of negative thoughts.

This video shows persecution of negative thoughts – thoughts, that keep telling us, we can’t do something, that we are not good enough, about missed opportunities … about everything that keeps on persecuting us.

I backed up the thought about battle against the wind with playing the video in the counterclockwise direction.

I used 3 shots in which I’m passing the camera. In one shot I’m ‘climbing’ the rope (I was playing with the orientation of the shot), and on the other two I’m running past camera with the roller in my hand.

The result is a little bit comic video collage, which humorous aspect I backed up with playing it a little bit faster than the normal speed (1,5).

I used Movie Maker to rearrange the videos, which I later join together and organize in HitFilm to form virtual circle.

I shot with digital camera Nikon D5100.
