Premiere Pro mosaic/blur effect applied to Scottish flag outside Holyrood Parliament.
Process: mosaic effect - mask path - flick from frame to frame, dragging mask to cover area of flag - allows blur to move with the moving object.
Effect: Is attention drawn to the blurred flag or is the eye deflected elsewhere? Is the blurred space negative or positive?
What does a blur cover/censor/protect? Something offensive, something illegal, identity, denies access or understanding, denies identity
Scottish flag blurred - Independence, negative perspective on Independence, denial of nationhood, absence of nationhood
Does its absence/obstruction bring Union Jack and EU flag into focus? - Brexit, withdrawal, denial, identity, identity defined as difference to others, racism, exceptionalism, colonialism, supremacy, pride.
Further: Two more videos blurring two other flags respectively - what comes from it? do they work together as clips? does one make more sense?
