The Girl Chewing Gum, Doll Face, Review

The Girl Chewing Gum

The girl chewing gum as it has been made in1976. The girl chewing gum has lots of narration. The girl chewing gum had that style of black and white which reflect the history of film when did it begin. Also the girl chewing gum (1976) illustrate in the film with non-diagetic sound even so you could tell where the sound was coming from. The black and white work of John Smith demonstrates lots of camera movement and lots of object in the frame. As a result John smith shows how the media can controls people’s life.
Doll Face
Doll Face was created by Andy Huang in 2005. By watch this Experimental Video call doll I realize how the media have an influence on people around the world. The technique that Andy Huang used was really recent and unique by using CGI. This shows how people follow the media without knowing it. How people are addicted to follow evolution and keep up to date with the latest look. By trying so hard to copy the TV the CGI animation as everyone would say die.

Name of creator or films artist Jan Kounen

Duration 5 min

Briefly give an overview of the types visual images used in this chosen piece. (B&W, colour, locations, actors etc.)
The content of this experimental video had more too it because it was made in stop motion animation. The concept behind the work of Gisele Kerozene was more craft in every way as she was using stop motion technique to make the audience believe that the main character was flying. From the very beginning every shot is masterfully crafted. >Without a doubt this short is one of the ultimate works of >frame-by-frame animation. Not only is it shown beautifully, but >it is the result of a wildly creative imagination.
Briefly give an overview of the types audio used in the video. (Is the Audio Diegetic or Non Diegetic, does the soundtrack fit the imagery?)It has this weird audio sound effect, which went well with the video

Audience and audience interpretation of the work (200 Words)

The reaction within the group was completely different from each other and this reaction does matter as it shows how people react to things in their own way. After watching Koyaanisqatsi many found it really strange and confusing. The interpretations of the audiences were all different: Many of the audiences who watch the koyaanisqatsi found it really artistic and the other found it really hard to appreciate. The Gisèle Kérozène work everyone thought it was really weird, many of the student thought it was good because of its craft and the way the director made it. The others thought that it was too much information to take. It is important that the audiences have more than one interpretation when watching videos it can be good or bad but without an interpretation the audience wouldn’t have an interest in the actual work. As a matter of fact as whether the audiences likes the work of the artist or not it’s down to their individual taste and preferences. As experimental videos don’t have target audiences really its normal that everyone has their own opinion on the matter. Each has their likeness and unlikeness about each film which shows the complex of targeting the right audiences when doing films. The relationship between the audiences with the author is to do with whether the age groups or YouTube Gerneration are the same age or not with the author or how Sophisticated the Video is.

How these works might inspire your own work (100 Words)

These Experimental videos inspire me so much now as it gave me more idea what would be the concepts and the craft of my own experimental video. The telling Lies work story gave this idea: to put narration expressing lies but showing the truth visually. I got my idea of my own Experimental video off the craft, diegetic, concept and non diegetic example. My work will consist of life circle how life goes, how it begins and how it end. The work of Koyaanisqatsi inspires me to produce a representation of life. The concept of the girl chewing gum inspire make my own piece with a representation of control. One of the aspects that I really took from those video was that the author want the audience to find the unexpected in the work. I might used the aspect and effect of the koyaanisqatsi experimental video and from the Telling Lies Experimental Video

Narrative and non-narrative structures (100 Words)

Gisele Kerozene and Telling lies

The story line of Gisele Kerozene work is really straight forward compared to Telling Lies work. The Telling Lies work express a Story line about the day before what happen that time and the main point that the author was trying to express was how people would Lies to get away from trouble. The concept behind the work of Gisele Kerozene was more craft in every way as she was using stop motion technique to make the audience believe that the main character was flying. The Telling Lies work also was craft but has more concepts to it, as the person was lying the visual part of the video was showing what was the truth. Both story of these story have a traditional narrative to them. The begining of the Gisele Kerozene work was with these people dicussing something about a race but in the other way Telling Lies begining and end was to do only with a blank black screen with word on it.

The use of technology and techniques and styles (100 Words)

Doll Face and Girl Chewing Gum

Doll Face was created by Andy Huang in 2005. By watch this Experimental Video call doll I realize how the media have an influence on people around the world. The technique that Andy Huang used was really recent and unique. By using CGI he made his work more advance in every way. Compare to Doll Face Girls Chewing Gum has this fact that it was less craft than Doll Face as it was made in 1976 at that there were no CGI Technology. The Girls Chewing Gum at that time was modern and new to audiences. Both of these video are expressing the same meaning which is that the media is controlling the world. In the Girl chewing Gum the narrator was trying to make the audience believe he was telling everyone what to do and in Doll Face the actually Doll was Copying what was On the TV. The techniques that Doll Face used was computer generate which give the production of the unique quality.

Comparison Experimental Video

Unit 34: Producing Video and Installation Work


· Task 1.
In this task I will compare these experimental video: the girl chewing gum, Koyaanisqatsi, 1001 Nights, Telling Lies by Simon Ellis and Luc Bourdon the Story of Feniks and Abdullah (1988).

· Discuss both past and current artists and works (200 words)
Discuss the artists you have looked at comparing general similarities and differences between them. Not your own opinions!


The koyaanisqatsi (October 4, 1982) experimental video was longer than the girl chewing gum as it has been made in1976. The girl chewing gum has lots of narration as the koyaanisgatsi has barely any narration. Compared to the koyaanisgatsi the girl chewing gum was really easy to produce because of the lack that it was made in 1976. The works of Godfrey Reggio express a particular texture and style in his film as a result it did make me feel dizzy like your brains don’t know what’s real. The girl chewing gum had that style of black and white which reflect the history of film when did it begin. Also the girl chewing gum (1976) illustrate in the film with non-diagetic sound even so you could tell where the sound was coming from. The black and white work of John Smith demonstrates lots of camera movement and lots of object in the frame. John Smith was trying to Make the audiences believe that he was telling to the people what do in his Shot. As a result John smith shows how the media can controls people’s life. The koyaanisquatsi work shows the beginning and end of life as well girl chewing gum but koyaanisquatsi had sophisticated shot and speed as you could see object, cars, people and many more things moving faster.

Four doc

A classic of the low-budget world of 1970s London experimental filmmaking, 'The Girl Chewing Gum' uses humour and formal rigour to question what makes a film dealing with reality into a documentary. The camera studies a run-of-the-mill East End street scene, as a hectoring narrator seems to order, not only the people, cars and moving objects within the screen, but also the architecture itself.In fact it is exactly the moment after the director has ordered the world to move, after instructing a clock's hands to move round once every hour, that we realize what is going on. The next instruction - the first one where we are 'in on Smith's idea' - is to the girl chewing gum: hence the film's titleIn pretending to 'direct' humdrum events like this, Smith draws attention to the way all documentary can be authored and selectively interpreted by a filmmakerAs a tribute to how everyday life is both utterly unremarkable and utterly absorbing, Smith deliberately picks a dispiriting urban location - a traffic-filled junction with a concrete Odeon cinema as its focus. The nasal jobsworth voiceover gives it an idiotic importance, as if each passerby is somehow part of a bigger plan. After the 'girl chewing gum' moment Smith sets out to undercut his 'documentary', inventing increasingly complex characteristics for his unknowing participants and then revealing that he's recording his voiceover in a location that's a very long way from Dalston.But due to Smith's bone-dry sense of humour, the film is much more than a postmodern intellectual exercise. It is fun to watch and, in an age of digital voyeurs and omnipresent cameras, troubling to wonder how many people are imposing their narratives on filmed versions of us today.John Smith has made many other similar semi-documentaries, some of them on tiny budgets. His body of work includes "Blight" - a lashing-out against the destruction of Leyton to make way for the M11. Deeply attached to London, he is fascinated by community, place and small personal stories - not unlike the filmmakers on FourDocshttp://www.channel4.com/fourdocs/archive/chewing_gum.html
