Concept

With tight time to execute look to lean into photography and effects that evolve into trippy then back to static of Maine Trees logo at the end of the loop. If necessary can be sure the imagery is cropped and abstracted enough so wont be any rights issues
but will use as much personal footage as possible especially for city imagery and video.

An endless visual loop for the room — jazz, city, texture, abstraction and motion photography. It opens on clean photography and gradually travels through layers of overlapping, interweaving effects, then returns, so the loop never sits still and never repeats the same way twice to the eye. The pace and palette follow a smooth-jazz mood: unhurried, warm, a little smoky. Built to be glanced at or watched — it rewards both.

Reference Blue note album covers and mix of graphic with photography closeups and abstractions.

Motion references

The clips below are inspiration for the kinds of movement and treatment the loop will draw from — not finished pieces, and not all will make the cut.

• Infinite zoom — photos nested inside photos, pulling forward without end

• Animated flyer linework — gig-poster linework drawing itself on

• Animated frames with parallax — layered stills that drift in depth

• Kaleidoscope photos — imagery mirrored and folded into pattern

• Double exposure — city and musician bleeding through each other

• Water displacement — photos rippling as if seen through water

• Smoke — flowing through and around the images

• Photo distortion and fisheye — bent, warped, wide-lens views

• Photo cutouts — elements lifting out and traveling between frames

• Animated bokeh and lens flare — soft light for transitions and atmosphere
