ABOUT MARGE
******************
VJ MARGE has been a video artist/ VJ since 2000. Large Marge started Vjing avant-garde footage, commericals, stop motion animation, 70's and 80's videos, Found Films and more to create live projections for DJ's and bands. I then starting only using Public Domain footage to manipulate collages in Final Cut Pro, which eventually led to tweaking these live using AVMIXER and a MAC. I have recently been working using old slide projectors and slides, manipulating SUPER 8 film by coloring, bleaching, and scratching onto the film, oil projections, and only using footage I shot and transfering to quicktime videos. I combine all these things and use AV MIXER 1.3 and a MacBook Pro.
