“Shatter”
Directed & Edited by Ellie Phan.
A gloomy and dark video to shatter your mind. You will see all memories that lead up to a girl death. Or simply, the last memories before her death.
Credit: Beginning sounds were found from FreeSounds.org. Second half, sounds were from my sound art project I created. All Images were found on Google.Images.com
Comment: This is my first time using After Effect so this whole video is me learning and getting uses to the project. This video for fun and for me to learn how to use the program.
Homework: Software take Command
Source: Lev Manovitch's "Software Takes Command."
Write a paragraph summing up the author's main points. Write another paragraph on how the reading affects your understanding of After Effects and how it might influence your project (be specific). While reading the essay by Lev Manovitch, some main points I learned from it was that back then people thought that moving picture film were the greatest achievement in their century. While today, moving picture is a commonplace and more complex as it said in the essay. Also, it was very rare for an animation were in the same frame. Back then the equipment had limitations, that doesn’t allow to create media in the same frame like we do today. So when the latest technology came, it would bring people more freedom and creativity to create new thing. For an example, the music video for “You Might Think” by The Cars, was the first to use computer graphics and it impacted the design world. Also, it was easier to combine numbers of visual into one frame and control each visual. Even the frames do not have to be the same size, people were amazed that earlier Affect Effect doesn’t automatic resize a visual to the same size of the frame. It was interesting to read this essay and see how the thing we took for granted now was like the holy grail for them.
I am going to use the frame to my advantage in my video project. I am going to move images in the frame by resizing them. I might not have some visual be the same size as the frame. I will make them go out the frame to create a scary mood since my theme for the video is supernatural and suspense. I can also use the anchor point tool to make my still image moving like a slow motion film. I want to use this tool to make my image look like they are running away from a monster. I probably will explore more thing in after affect to achieve my desire result.

Homework 7: Sound Art Exercise
Title: Nocturne
Artist: Samson Young
When: (2015- On-Site-Radio Broadcast)
A “song” is a musical score with lyrics performed by singing. A “song” is composed for singing or voices. On the other hand, a “soundtrack” is a score composed for a specific subject of a video, film, video game and more. Soundtrack sync sound with specific images along a film timeline.Therefore, a song is different from a soundtrack because a song is made specific for singing. A soundtrack might not include singing but just sound. Also, a soundtrack is usually made to sync with some kind of video genre.
I chose this video because it made me feel calm. I was very stressed out from the day I was having. So when I play this video, it somehow made me calm and relax. The other sound art videos I played before made me feel creeped out and more stressed out. The sounds Samson Young played in his video remind me of staying in my room watching tv while it is raining outside. Good time. Rain makes me feel relax and it kind of matches my gloomy mood. Therefore, I felt that is why I respond to this video. It wasn’t creepy yet it was sad but relaxing.
Homework Sound Exercise : Interview with Julian
What I learn is that I can shorten the length of sound. I could deleted some part and reduce the background noise. I had trouble with deleting some small background noise. I need to learn to do better at reducing background noise.

Backward Thinking.
Fake Reality Project.
In today’s society, many people are turning their back from the future and looking toward the past. Our society is moving backward toward the time of unequal rights. Instead, we should have been moving forward and progressing in a more equal society. A young girl is turning her back from a happy future where she is peacefully married to look back at all the events that happen in past.

Review of “Remix” by Lawrence Lessig
In the article, Lawrence Lessig talks about the effects of technology. Technology like the internet allows many online users to take other people medias. Lawrence believed that the copyright may be too harsh on the people. It isn’t right to label all users online as criminals for fanart, etc. When there are many online websites and companies are either duplicating or taking media and claiming as their own. Many people online do this too not just the big companies. It is too much of a degrading label since the world today is changing. Thus, there will be loopholes or situation with taking media online when those copyright laws were made a long time ago.
When I was reading this article, my view on appropriation changes a little. I haven’t thought of the downside of the copyright laws. I didn’t know the process on how to get permission from the original creators to use their works. Also, I didn’t know that back then when people like me take or “borrow” a popular to draw fanart or make a cool anime music video that was against the copyright laws. Even though, I put in the credit and saying at the end of works that the character I took were not mine. Yet, it is fine to show the image I “borrow” and edit to a small audience but when it is shown out in the world I could be sue for it.
Karl, sorry I couldn’t go to the Tom Sachs’ field trip. I was too busy trying to run away from a killer clown. Seriously though, I couldn’t miss history of visualcomm or Satory would have kill me.

Digital Foundations
Appropriation is when an artist makes art by using something that is already popularly known in the world in which it is incorporate/manipulate into the artwork. For an example in the reading, Andy Warhol did a blow-up poster of Campbell’s soup in a silk-screening process. This is an example of appropriation because Warhol used a popularly known object (Campbell’s soup can) and slightly modify to become art. Another example from the reading is Marcel Duchamp’s urinal, Duchamp brought a urinal and wrote his name on it. He then submitted the urinal into an art show as one of artwork.
When it is fine to do appropriation? It is fine to use appropriation when it for a generic like object or situation. For an example, you would be able to use napkins in your art. Napkins is a daily life object and it is generic to the world. Therefore, it is safe to use napkins as art. I think it would be fine to use something that is constantly available everywhere. Or something that doesn’t have a copyright or license label on it but a fair use or permission label.
