Working with Ego

Project Background

Gordon Reinhart, a full professor within the Theater Arts dept. at Boise State, came to me with a really odd question: “Can I create a video that shows me having a conversation with myself?” I hadn’t done anything like this before, so I figured I’d give it a try. We set up a portable green screen in a classroom and filmed Gordon twice in front of it, playing two different characters. The second time I filmed Gordon, I had the first video playing in the background, so we could get the timing perfect as he interacted with himself. The results turned out spectacular!
