Recording for the audio took place over 2 days, the first day was for the initial audio for example the city noise, mainly the noise to act as a base for the sound piece. Then on the second day we went out to record smaller noises to add more depth to the piece for example the nature and the water drop sounds. To edit the sound piece we used Pro Tools which took around 2 days as well.

Star Guitar - The Chemical Brothers analysis
The music video ‘Star Guitar’ by The Chemical Brothers takes on an abstract form as the entire video consists of not so much the same images; more so the same type of images. This music video consists of a continuous journey along a train line through the train carriage window, not specifically from point of view however the beauty of this piece is that it can be interoperated this way given its simplistic nature. Due to its simplicity it may not be perceived as an abstract piece however because of its lack of narrative, given that it is a music video not a short film, it allows anyone to interpret the themes how they want. In addition to this the sound piece used is a sample from the David Bowie song Starman, this piece is used throughout giving as a background for the visuals as there are no lyrics or words throughout. In Bordwell and Thompson’s (1997) article it is said that “In opposition to dominant or mainstream cinema some filmmakers set out to create films that challenge orthodox notions of what a movie can show and how it can show it”. This is very true to this piece as it does not have to be bombarded with effects and loud sounds to convey a message, there are some things that need to be watched and interpreted by everyone in their own way. The directors intentions were to use the sound as a main element to accompany the visuals, with some of the beats and tones go in time with the visuals in the video.
