Field Trip 2 – Central Escalators

Camera is Static, Subjects are Dynamic

Remember to watch your feet at the end of the escalator.

Differentiation of Speed

People will eventually arrive at their destination, no matter fast or slow.

Stop-motion

Do not ever look at me from only one direction.

Slow motion

It requires courage to fly, it requires patience to see them fly.

Framing

How many pathways can you count?

The messy pathways remind me of Taiwanese writer, Jimmy Liao’s Turn Right and Turn Left, it is filmed into a movie in 2003. There are many intersection points but it needs fate to meet the one. If you decide to take a turn and walk down the stairs, you may miss the one taking the escalator. If you choose to take the escalator, you may not encounter the one walking the sidewalk. Everything in life is designed and everyone of us has our own destiny. Many things are meant to be, we can only accept them anyways.

    Nice shots from carefully selected angles. I appreciate the play of speed and framing. I wonder if your interest in speed could have extended even further, following one passenger, let’s say outside the escalator into a bar, onto the street, etc…
