Week Ten - Rare Books Video
For this week, we were tasked to make a quick, 3 minute video for this year’s Melbourne Rare Book Fair, speaking about an object from the RMIT Design Archive and reflecting on our experience there.
I ended up speaking to the published object I made in week one and how the archive helped me collect and research. In the video, I also discussed how one could flick through and analyse older, physical material, where there was little information online.
This gif shows all the frames that were in my final video, with the first frame being an introductory slide including text about my name & course: “Gwyneth Lee, RMIT Bachelor of Communication Design”. This is also supported with two photos from the RMIT Design Archive building, as well as a photo of myself. The second frame showed large text “Process”, and 4 snaps of black and white photos showing the process of silk screen printing. The final slide shows two photos of the front and the back of my messy research poster, along with the subtitle “Week One Completed Object”.
