I was trying to put together a film about the black country canals (stone cross to west brom) but at the moment it seems like it was a bit of a failure. As a result I used some of the footage to make a vlog called "winter dreams". Its not so much that it was based on a dream, but more on a "nut shell" vision I had for the original film.
The original film was meant to be a narrative, but due to my vlogs usually being visual poems I cut out the footage that I felt was "not pretty". This left the vlog making little sense in terms of narrative, however I felt it created a nice cinematic portrait of the black country canals.
The only reason I wanted to make the original film in the first place was to give me an excuse to capture the poetic beauty of the canals. So all in all I guess it worked out fine...
