Final Project- Video


My goal for this video was to create a parallel between the time I work on the collage project and my life outside of art and technology. This was done by taking videos from routes I take at school and some playful humor. I deviated from the norm by going to a grocery store in a bathrobe and towel then proceeded to buy shampoo. I received interesting looks from other customers and definitely sparked up laughter. Audio was not included because the background noise coming from each clip is relevant to the pace and energy that consumes my life. There is a playful and fun feeling when watching me cut out pictures for the collage because of the music in the background. Julia and I show a playful mood in the videos where she is cart wheeling and when she is videoing me. The voices and laughter in the grocery store clips are essential when it comes to expressing how the norm was broken and I was out of place. Overall, the video expresses what we have been learning in class. The collage symbolizes assignments and the commitment I have for the class and the irregular actions made are similar to videos we have recently viewed in class. It was enjoyable learning how the software works during the creation of this project.

Stop Motion Film

This film was done by me and Julia Christensen. The plot was two friends doing yoga together and presenting gifts to one another. We incorporated the advantage we had of disappearing into thin air and making it look like we were popping back into the scene from different spots. The props used were a plant and a picture that represented relaxation and peace. This project was not what we expected it to be but we both enjoyed the challenge. On our first try we took too many pictures making the movie look like it was a time lapse. We improved that as well as the different things we did within the scenes. Overall it was a fun activity to do and learn.

Grid Project

Image
I chose to make a pixelated version of a Greek island. Even though it was challenging at times to match the colors I believe this pixelated version is similar to the printed image I was trying to mimic. I used post it notes that were colored, some of them were colored on in order to perfect the colors. I did not color every post it note because the original ones emulated what the actual color was better than the markers. It was fun putting together this project and it was also interesting to learn what it takes to create a pixelated image on photoshop.

Collage Assignment

Image
My picture was originally me and my father walking on the beach. I made it into a collage by incorporating pictures of my dogs into the image. I substituted me and my fathers heads for my golden lab Casey. I then proceeded to substitute the people in the backgrounds heads and body parts with images of my puppy Chloe. The sand was then covered in both dogs tongues. My inspiration for putting Chloes eyes in the sky came from the book and now movie, The Great Gatsby. I believe this is a quality collage that can represent how close me and my dogs are as well as me and my father.
