Tobaccoland Montage
This is "Tobaccoland Montage" by Jeff Carter on Vimeo, the home for high quality videos and the people who love them.
Artist Statement: This is one of three short public domain video edits taken from an archived Periscope promotional film series from the 1950s. Original music was scored for all edits. I wanted to portray how nostalgia has manifested out of the portrayal of industrial America and how it fits into our reality today. Through use of electro-synthesis, the future elicits a sense of both warmth and fear.
Jeffrey Alan Carter is a musician, composer, and freelance sound designer living in Brooklyn, New York. He is also one of the founding members of the electronic group, SANDY. His sonic aesthetic can be described as organic yet, industrial with nostalgic shades of light and dark qualities achieved through his use of synthesis.
