The Signilar Workshop, Judith Carducci in Old San Juan, was a big success. See a slide show of the workshop by clicking on the picture above |
I was recently asked, again, what makes Signilar's Art Videos unique. In my view, there are three main reasons:
1. The quality of the artists on our videos. They are among America's best.
2. We have always used a professional television crew to do the filming and the actual putting together of the end product.
3. I make them as I know what you and I would like to see in them: close-up shots, personal narration by the artist, and emphasis on the critical elements that make up a professional painting.
In the case of a portrait, the subject of the painting is seen every three to five minutes, so you can better understand what the artist is doing and follow the thought process. You have the feeling of sitting right next to the artist, and you can hear what the artist is thinking as she or he is painting or sculpting. You come away with an understanding of the materials and how they are being used.
The ability to replay that portion which you feel is most crucial to you at the moment, transforms the instructional video into a moment of "Aha!" That difference is why Signilar's videos have been recognized as "...the best art videos anywhere."
We wish you all a happy and prosperous New Year.
