Fight and Flight

Template:KMBlog Fight and Flight is the first video in the KateModern video series.

Transcript

(Music plays in the background as camera zooms in on various shots of pigeons.)

(Camera stops and pans around on a dark figure balancing atop a building.)

(Cuts to different patterns, then fades back into the figure, more zoomed in and unfocused.)

(Quickly cuts back to the pigeons, then to the figure walking, then to a heart on the side of a notebook disappearing.)

(Shows two drawn characters. The character on the left is holding a heart, and rips it in half. Shot fades out to the left character stomping on the ripped heart, the right character looking distraught.)

(Cuts to a pattern. The shot zooms into the pattern then quickly cuts to other patterns.)

(Cuts to foot traffic on the sidewalk of a busy street. Camera pans over to two men. One man pushes the other to the ground. Shot zooms in and plays the first half of the clip, then zooms out and shows the ending. )

(Lyrics begin as camera pans around the man on the ground stuggling to get up, then cuts back two the characters. The left one dancing on the heart, then kicking it.)

(Cuts to various patterns, then shows the characters again, the right character is lying on top on the heart, the left has his arm raised in the air, then cuts to the right character holding what appears to be the two pieces of the heart, which she turns into wings. She puts them on and flies upwards.)

(Cuts to show the image on the side of a notebook disappearing once again.)

(Camera cuts to a pigeon, than pans to many pigeons on a roof-top)

(Fades through white to the figure again, then quickly cuts and pans around large buildings as a pigeon flies out. The video fades out.)

Notes

• Even though this is Kate's first video, it does not provide much information about her.
• Pigeons seem to be a theme throughout this blog.
• This video was uploaded and then taken down within a minute. It was then put back on for a brief period of time, then taken down after about an hour. When it was posted the second and third time, some people claimed that the video quality was significantly improved.
• LG15 LaurinB posted the first comment to this first KateModern video. This is noteworthy because Kate also gives Laurin a shotout in her next video, in response to another comment made by Laurin to this video complimenting the use of the music.
