GIDI VIGO / Blog

The Guys from Points Of You wanted me to make a video they could share with their clients. They are to coachers, that created a board game that by playing, you inspect your life in many aspects. That’s it, in a nut shell.
I chose one aspects that the game is dealing with, and that’s the word fear. Soon you could find it on their website.

By the way, they asked me to write about the process I went through while making this video. I’m gonna write and post it here in the next few days.

and  let’s not forget, the great soundtrack was created by Hilit Rozental, a very talented person.

This video is a first-time for me in many ways. The first time I’ve experimented pixilation. The first time I did a stop-motion animation that was longer than a few seconds. The first time I did a project and really felt like a director, directing other people. I can go on and on. I watch this, I can see a lot of bumps and things I could have done better, but it makes me proud, I must say. I have things that are more “perfect”, but I really like this small video because it made me experiment in a lot of new stuff, and I feel it’s a big step farward for me.

Anyway, thanks for Aya Zahavi Feiglin (That also have a blog with her band that I built and manage) for laying down in some fhilty spaces, and didn’t complain.
Another big thanks goes to  Hilit Rozental, a very talented musician and a very cool girl, for the beautifull song on the background.
Gilad Tasa and Nir Yemini, two great friends, helped moving some stuff, Shirly Kattash and Rotem Smolsky helped me with shooting.

הרבה זמן חיכיתי לפרוייקט איננטרנטי מגניב, והנה הגיעה ההזדמנות. להקת כל החתיכים אצלי, הרי הם איה זהבי פייגלין, גלעד מאיר, נמרוד לביד והוד שריד, רצו אתר אינטרנט, משהו שאפשר יהיה לשים בו שירים, קטעי וידאו, כל מיני כאלה. במקום זה הלכנו על בלוג, שיש בו גם את הדברים האלה, וגם עוד הרבה דברים מגניבים. גם קטעים מפגרים, גם קטעים רציניים לגמרי, ובעיקר בלוג פעיל, שבא בדיוק ברגע שלפני הפריצה שלהם. וזה הדבר הכי מרגש בזה. התפקיד שלי היה ליצור את הבלוג, לנהל ולערוך אותו. בינתיים זה ממש כיף. תכנסו, תראו

Another something I made for the ARTiSHOWk event – a promotion video. I actually very busy these days, but Or and Or (the producers of the ARTiSHOWk) asked me really nicely… So I gave myself a challenge, to the video in two hours. I think It’s not bad at all for 2 hours work.

It’s Allways (?) fun to look yourself in Google and stuff. I’ve looked up the terms “Gidi” and “Vigo” on Google Earth, and guess what, there’s a place called Gidi in Nigeria…  well, I guess the result of combining both satellite shots to one image doesn’t mean a thing. Well, it doesn’t mean I shouldn’t post it, and even make two more images for Dwight Howard of the Orlando Magic and LA Lakers’ Kobe Bryant – The 2009 NBA finals gonna  start in 14 hours. The blog is rooting for the Magic!

This is an uncomplete typographic video for “I Got The Hotties” band. I watched an online tutorial about this genre of typographic videos, and I really wanted to try that. So… I just did. Now, after doing a break, I wonder if I’ll ever finish it. Who knows…
