Copycat from Christine Mason Miller on Vimeo.
Watching Marisa's videos all week, and then seeing Susannah diving right in, I got the urge to join in the video fun. This is my one and only take with no edits. (Why did I put my camera on a painting and sit on a trash can when I have a perfectly good desk right in front of me? With the light coming in from the window behind my desk, it was too dark. Lighting improvisation #1!)
I realized after I finished that I should have given credit to these three lovely little bluebirds for getting the video trend started ages ago. I have enjoyed and been intrigued by everyone who has added this new dimension to their blogs, and I love the idea of creating an ongoing conversation between all of us this way!
I have not watched you video yet but I will in a few minutes. Loved the video with you and Marisa together. The idea of talking about a specific subject and having several artist/bloggers weighing in is great and I hope this happens. You two are such an inspiration.
