Conceptual Video

By lillianaquintana

Everyday video is dependant on the abilities of who or what is being filmed. It is common to see spontaneous examples of this genre because it is most entertaining. Often, because of this, it is very limited, be it setting, action or resources. Free running and le parkour are spontaneous sports and fit this everyday genre.

In this video the participants of these sports use everyday settings and do what they perceive to be ordinary. The video’s concept is loosely similar to the concept of the movie Crash, an intersection of the lives of various seemingly unrelated people. The viewer doesn’t have to understand this concept to appreciate the skills and concepts behind both sports. These are shown via the characters’ actions and interactions. It shows several men flipping, running and the like to be joined by others. In showing that, it entices viewers to join, iterates the sports’ methodology and subtly advertises.
