CLAYGO

We finally completed the story, The story tells the development of human emotions. We have included 4 different emotions to represent each character. Red-Angry, Yellow-Joy(happy), Green- Fear, Blue-sad. we planned our proposal into the story line and added short description underneath each frame.

My internet is so laggy so I only got to upload this today, but check out this video about our Moving Images Video Presentation reviews. This video was meant to be uploaded with my reflection post (the post before this one).

Reflective statement

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6BEsHAtwqqc This is our video, and from the reactions of the audience, I am extremely happy with how well it all worked out. I thought that we were able to bring together a mixture of what makes everyone uncomfortable in order to make everyone all share the same feelings towards it. I was very happy to hear how much the lecturers liked it and how much the class enjoyed it as well. It was awesome working with a group who all were accepting of each others idea’s and enjoyed each others company. In my opinion this was by far my favourite group due to the fact that they were so easy to work with, and everyone did their part without slacking off.

Final Project Complete

Though I was unable to attend the critique, my team has filled me in on what the lecturers said about our film. The feedback was overwhelmingly positive. Ben saying that he enjoyed the original audio and felt like he was coming down off drugs. Pritika adding that the film felt professionally produced and had a lot of effort put in.

The more interesting feedback being that the film felt like coming down from a high. People interpret fear and anxiety differently. Some images would have been more disturbing to people than to others. However, the whole thing as a film is interpreted differently to each person. Some saying they felt it was a drug overdose, others saying it was a good representation of anxiety and disgust. This made me realize how ambiguous emotion is and how its dependant on upbringing, culture and experience.

Going forward from this project I will keep in mind the fact that emotions are different for everybody. When I produce work and find my target audience, this will be a key factor. “what emotions does the piece produce and who will this effect?”.

Moving image project -  Reflections and final thoughts.

The past week was well.. pretty stressful. We had to make some big changes to our original plan which we didn’t know if it’d make our moving image better or worse. In the group, it felt a little chaotic, but through the chaos we managed to sit down, think things through and follow a plan. Through this we managed to finish our project and I can’t say im not happy with the final product :3. 

Reflecting back to the beginning of this moving image project, I was afraid i wouldn’t do well because if you’ve followed my blog so far, i’m not too keen on my drawing skills xD. I thought it’d involve a lot of drawing or graphics and i’m really not good at expressing my creativity in drawings..I mean yeah, short sketches and doodles, but definitely not in flipbooks and animations. So I was off to a shaky start. When we got to the second part of the project, which was the proposal, I started to think more broadly after seeing some of the examples. I started getting ideas in ways where I can use my strengths. I definitely enjoyed the second part more than the first (lol).

Joining fingemo was definitely something im very glad i did. The ideas that some of the group members had were brilliant and they expressed it so effectively that everyone sort of knew how the general filming was going to turn out. Throughout this project, I learnt so much about how important plans and teamwork is. It’s really hard to work properly in a team, without knowing each other’s strengths. 

Reflecting over the other groups’ work, I was truly amazed by how abstract and how effectively they could portray different emotions. I feel like its opened up new ideas in my head that I wish I could’ve thought of beforehand. But I guess thats what experience just is, I wouldn’t know how to open my mind if I haven’t seen others going out and opening their minds up.

Overall, I found this project really interesting and fun and many many skills were gained throughout the project. I never once thought i’d be applying the camera angle shots I learnt at school, in a degree project xD
