The world resumes. It has to. We look for the Good in the bad, in these times, you know. We have to. We just have to keep going for a Good time.
I had a lot of fun with this one. I have been exploring the amazing world of 3D. Taking this project as an opportunity to learn simulations, I found that there's so much that you could do with some CG, cameras, and sound. Lucas Ferreira, a Sydney based musician, helped compose the music.
"In Shehzar Abro’s Keep Going / Good Times, this trance-like state morphs into an animation. The video is interspersed with appropriated imagery from futuristic cartoons and abstracted, wave-like patterns, as well as a recurring digital illustration of a donkey revolving within a grid. The discordant, constantly shifting visuals were held together by the ambient sound of Lucas Ferreira’s music, forming a glitchy euphoria." (Hallucinations, A. Gulgee, A. Fahy-Majeed, 2020)
