Watching You
Another machinima! He’s Watching You is a more abstract video this time, combining and overlaying video and audio. He’s Watching You from Tizzy Canucci on Vimeo.

In the machinima, movement through and within the space is cut to a sparse, neo-classical piece by Kai Engel. As with my previous piece, Peatonville Bay, it glides rather […]
