"Why does the world need Dismaland? What inspired you to create it – and how did you find the site?
It’s an experiment in offering something less resolved than the average theme park. For some reason it’s been labelled as ‘twisted’ but I’ve never called it that. We just built a family attraction that acknowledges inequality and impending catastrophe. I would argue it’s theme parks which ignore these things that are the twisted ones."
i took my new camera the lumix g6 with to film and to take photos,
here is a few photos of the day

| colour change from porcelain cream to green |
and a video
on reflection i feel that the camera action was shaky in some shot of the film and would love to invest in some stabilization equipment that is not a not stuck to a fixed position like a steady cam because of the need for moment. i also really like the sound track and feel quite happy about the pace of editing to the beat of the sound track.
i feel some of the colour to remain true the colour that was experienced at the gallery however due to that i feel reflecting upon that the colour is just to orange, and i wish i could have filmed more of the paintings within the gallery
my favourite bit of dismaland was entering the place along with the cardboard cut-out security and the paintings within the gallery one of the artists that i really enjoyed was Jeff Gillette, below is one of his works
Hi Steven - great you went to Dismaland and filmed it for those of us who didn't have a chance to visit. I would loved to learn more about your experience of the trip and about the different works you saw. You have evaluated the issues you have encountered with your lovely new camera which is good. Stabilisation is a problem for such a small camera, especially when you are making pans and other camera movements which need practice even with a bigger video camera. I think you should have considered shooting a number of shots without movement, which would have helped to hold them steady. Many of the shots could have been held for longer remember your audience are interested in seeing all the different artists work too. But thanks for making the film - a very useful document for everyone
ReplyDeletethank you for the advice ad i have nearly all works of art documented from all angels be it film or stills on the hard drive, i just thought one mass upload of all dismaland would crash poor blogger and im more then happy to show everyone if interested, hope you had a good summer
