Click here to view on Vimeo: Journey to college #2 - slow version
Either way, the pace was slowed down and the narrative and tone were altered, though the images remained the same. The fact that the camera lingers on them for longer gives the viewer the chance to contemplate what has happened (or whichever tense they assign to the story), while the music sets the tone in the absence of any narrator. The slight movement in each image (created by the Ken Burns effect) is also well suited to the pace of this version.
While the four versions of this video are all accompanied by music, I would like to return to the idea at some point and add a voiceover of some kind (in the style of Patrick Keiller's London and Robinson In Space), and some field recordings of the background noise at each point where a photo is taken.
Two clips from London:
