Explore minutes of your life

Work in a small group to plan and later record a short performance that captures a few minutes of your life or the life of one or more of your group. The performance will be the subject for a video artwork that gives clues about the performer/s, the performance space and the way the space is used.

Complete the following steps to plan and create your performance:

Decide who will work in front of the camera—this might be one or more group members. Decide who will work behind the camera in various roles.

Prepare the performance. Think about where and how the subject will move in the space and what they will wear.

Rehearse the performance until the group is happy with it.
