This video is a little graphic, but a real telling story. “C4 Random Acts – ‘Lawless’ is directed by Ellen Pearson, all photos by Tilly Lawless, and music by Suzanne Kraft. The film is a compilation of a photograph series shot by Lawless, who is a sex worker in Sydney’s decriminalized sex industry. The video intrigues me because of the unique story and the way it is portrayed. I feel that the director accomplishes the attempt to expose societal taboos surrounding sex work and attitudes about love and sex. The way they compile photographs to tell the story felt stronger than a regular video and had a deeper connection because the person who’s telling the story is the one the story is about. Overall I enjoyed how the video was a compilation of photo series that was then narrated to create a video.

“Do You Like Me Now?” Anatomiae Occultii by Chris Shimojima is a video telling a story using dance movements. I have seen a theme in the videos that I choose including this one, because they do not include the people in the video talking, but rather music playing over it. I enjoy this quality in the work along with how well choreographed and directed this video is.
