Coastal Run

Conceptual video visualizing heart-rate during an 8 mile run.

Strategy:

Concept

How can I creatively document my running data, in a way thats engaging and fits within its own context? Using videos of the different areas of coastline along my run, each crash of a wave represents one heartbeat during my run. I used data collected by my Apple Watch to interpret an average heart-rate for each mile of my run, then represented in a short clip at each mile interval.

Video Editing

I used an iPhone and tripod set-up to capture videos of the coastline at each mile interval of my run, which were then sped up and matched against my heart-rate data. The videos were then colour graded and compiled together.

Animation

A heart-beat animation was developed alongside a typographic system that displayed additional running data relevant to the video.
