"Blazing" performance hahaha.

Love the motion of the frame! Was it done in editing or is it camera motion?

[dynaSXE]

@ajayalmighty I was just wondering if the movement of the frame - you can see that there is motion of the frame that follows the motion of the man's face - was done when it was recorded, or in editing? I now think it was done during editing, as it is just too precise.

@beyourself266 I think it's a continuation of the series he started way back with Mike Horn to show how much can be expressed by the face alone in just 60 seconds...

[ArtyomGalstyan]

@dynaSXE I think that the camera is somehow connected to his head or body

[tommakesvfx]

i would guess motion tracking inside after effects

[Techdeck]

@JaredArentson Hillman Curtis has been doing this kinda stuff for quit some time actually

[Spankdangles]

someone wanna explain what this is for?

[ajayalmighty]

@dynaSXE Lol sorry for the random comment, didn't really know what I was saying there...

[ajayalmighty]

Is he really falling asleep with the camera in front of him for less than 60 seconds?

[TzumB]

almost looks like a helmet cam.. or summn

Hillman Curtis??? Dude this is an Andy Warhol, Bruce Nauman work. Not knocking the videos because there is still something to watch but commenting on the originality of the structure of the video piece suggests that your knowledge of Art/film history is seriously lacking...Hillman Curtis (RIP) was a web designer and most of his video exploits were just rehashing what people did in the 60s and 70s. Hillma C. was a great web guy but definitely not worthy of a comparison to this work...AT ALL!!!
