To answer this however is to say that there are many approaches to perform visuals. For those playing at home, what do you actually do when you are on or behind stage in front of your computer? Are your images all played on the fly or do you have pre-prepared sections of video/art? In many cases, that is about as much as we know about VJing as an art form. We have all stood back and admired the work that VJs do at events, often being hypnotised by the visual accompaniment to the music. It’s quite hands on from start to finish. In some situations, certain shows are programmed from the start, which involves development and preparation of specific content. Yet the execution of the show itself always has a strong live approach and things always get played out on the spot. There is rarely a moment when you get to press play and dance while losing control of what is going on. VJs are artists that offer visual elements to shows, which adds to the overall experience for the audience, making events much more memorable and exciting.
Thank you for joining us today Grigori. Please tell us what a VJ’s role is? Our coveted reporter Simon Murphy catches up with Melbourne based VJ “vdmo Kstati” and attempts to learn more about the artform. These artists spend countless hours preparing visuals, which transfix yet many are hidden away backstage and often receive zero credit from the public.
