Andalucía – Artist Impressions
Written by: Frank Knipschild | September 17, 2009
After having introduced myself i thought it would be nice to show you the surroundings i live in in, … and fell in love with. I have been living here for about 10 years now and due to my profession as director at quanvision, we have collected so many images that i simply had to do something with them. When i came across a track of Andain with the name “Beautiful Things” it all fell together.
Please sit back and relax and let yourself be taken into this Andalucían dream. After the show i will give you some background info and you can compare it with some other video’s of Andalucía which i found on the web.

Now music in my opinion is at least 50% of a video and i would say especially in this case. The track is very ambient, offering different moods and therefor allowing specific themes to accompany them. The words are like a dream and give sufficient space to play around with. Simple text elements have been implemented to make the viewer more aware and to drag him deeper into the story. Not that there is a real determined story but there is a red thread throughout which makes if feel as if a story is unfolding.
Well not !
It is simply an edit made on top of a fantastic music track with the purpose to show Anadlucía through an artistic eye. It’s a dream so everybody can make up his own story. The grading has been chosen colorfull and saturated. The images come from different camaras and formats, some in Standard PAL and others in High Definition. The edit is of course done in Standard PAL. The illustration of the bull is taken from a painting of my partner Maro Bombach.
Something else about Andalucía:
The official publicity campaign of the Andalucían governement: “Andalucía te quiero”
Make no mistake, this is a top of the range production and is far superior to what i have done. No comparison as all scenes are staged and we speaking big budget here. My scenes are simply taken from the street so to say :-). This is shot on film and is an excellent campaign. A big inspiration for me. Enjoy !

I would like to leave you by inviting you to come and visit Andalucía. If you haven’t done that already i hope my post has been convincing enough to make you take this step.
Bye for now.
