| Obscured by a Bibleful of Secrets Hello all! For years now, I've been making Floyd film synchs and now that I finally have a computer, I'm trying to get at least a few out there. I'd like to share with you one of my best. It took quite a while to put together, so please enjoy and tell me what you think. Also, I have more of these if anyone's interested. Recipe: 1 film/The Bible a.k.a. John Huston's The Bible; 2 Pink cd's: A Saucerful of Secrets and Obscured by Clouds. Instructions: Mute TV. Pop in "Saucerful" and program tracks this order: 5,2,3. At the beginning of the film, when the words "Directed by John Huston" disappear, unpause cd. The music develops an "order from chaos" theme as you watch the creation of the world. The first 5-10 minutes of this acts as a mood synch, and the connections really fall into place when the organ fades in. Track 2 should begin when a shot of Adam pulling his hand away from his reflection in water switches to a moving shot of the trees. Track 3 should begin when a shot from above of Adam and Eve switches to horses. **A special note here regarding a subtlety you may not otherwise catch: When Eve takes her first bite of the apple, you will hear a crunching sound in the music. Pause FILM at the end of track 3 when Adam is making his way toward Eve through the trees. Switch cd's to "Obscured" and program tracks this order: 1,2,6,7,10. Unpause music and film simultaneously. The lyrics work wonderfully and most consistently with track 7(Childhood's End). Track 10 and the whole thing ends on a comical note with Noah looking very confused. Have fun and come back to tell me what you think. |

| Re: Obscured by a Bibleful of Secrets wow, that sounds like a lot of effort on your part. I feel bad that I am not currently able to try it in light of all your hardwork, since I'm not sure I could locate the video. melancholia, `Ick` |

| Re: Obscured by a Bibleful of Secrets The Bible is available at most video rental places, but the synch is probably shite, as most are, so don't bother renting it, unless you wanna see the film.

| Re: Obscured by a Bibleful of Secrets Wow, thanks. But why would I bother with those specifics if the synch didn't work? I did invite everyone to come back and tell me what they thought of it. I'll be the first, well second now, to admit there are a lot of "synchs" out there we can apply every form of the word feces to. Anyway, a lot of time went into this and it did work. (The only thing I would ask you to look past is that Adam & Eve look like hippies--but hey, it was made in the 60's) |
