Stuff from the Other Angle

Entire Art Portfolio

Original Video

The Other Angle was one of the first video art pieces I made.

I made a background from The Other Angle, a view-from-cockpit video, by translating this background around behind an image of a cockpit to make it look a bit like a flight simulator. You can see the full video in my portfolio, which is fully CC0. Obviously, the inspiration for this piece was from Hiroshi Nagai. He has a few paintings of planes passing over cities at dusk/dawn, and I thought it would be fun to try and do a first-person adaptation. Even on its own, though, I think the background is fairly eye-catching.

Here's the cockpit image I used for that video. It's stylized and tweaked but based on an actual image from Wikimedia Commons.
