Ideas
What will the people in the video be saying?
Problems in Processing
We have identified some problems which might occur during the processing implementation:
->maintaining audio syncing
->video playback versus memory usage
->layering of video(tied with the playback depending on the method we use for it)
We have a solution for the audio. We will separate all audio from the videos and have the voice clips play continuously right from the start of the sketch. The only thing that need be controlled is the volume of each voice which depends on the number of videos showing of one particular face. This would mean a range of 0-6 (7 levels of volume). This could be done one of two ways, either controlling one sound clip at 7 different volume levels or muting/unmuting 6 repetitions of an identical voice clip.
For the other two issues we have not yet found a solution, or rather a method.

Progress report - Week of Feb 10
Revised Concept
After further discussing our project, we've managed to narrow down and set out what our concept is. Going along with our initial idea, we are making a sort of video board that involves filmed video and corresponding audio.
Once assembled together, it will make an interactive experience where the user can switch between different videos and audio on a grid that will create a sort of musical composition depending on the combination of videos they choose.
Six individuals will be filmed and each video will be cut into six pieces making a total of 36 sub-videos.
The videos will collectively form a portrait. The six videos represent 6 notes on a scale and the user will hear these notes played in some kind of beat. Each video of one section will have the same beat and note from the scale, making the only difference be the tonal quality of the subjects voice between videos of said section.
We are also planning to have the subjects in the recorded videos say something, each subject would say the exact same thing and it would remain in perfect sync throughout the whole piece. The volume of each individual speaker will be affected by how many videos of their face is visible on screen.

Inspiration
A combination of our three best ideas.
This is a piece where the user controls what happens on screen, to a certain extent. There are several options and combinations that the user can alter between. In this example the page displays four band members who can be "switched" on/off. By doing this, it is the user who is making the music and each time there can be a different outcome. Click above.
