This was the final documentation video. I thought that rather than try and document everything via tumblr, a video would be a unique and creative way to convey our ideas and what we planned on doing. Similar to that in the first video, we aimed to explain the idea in a way that would allow the responders to make up their own minds before viewing our thoughts... however because the first video was specifically about 1 project, i thought this would be a nice finishing touch to end the PDF.

I am also queen of cheesy endings and naturally i had a lot of footage to work with for the ultimate cheesy ending. I thought it was fitting to add in the bits of the footage that weren't suitable for the video itself but showcased the fun we had making the PDF. as a group i think we actually did really enjoying the group project. It was a nice break from the individual projects we've done throughout the year, and its nice to have other opinions and visions to work with :)

I'm really happy with my group and how we worked together.

there were definitely challenges throughout the task, mainly due to the inability to find time to meet up outside of cofa class. twice we stayed after class to work on it but it was hard to collaborate the final piece.

i put the final pdf together with the suggestions of Olivia and Brendan. They sent me the desired layout of their pages and i collaborated and compiled them into the final PDF. The PDF and the embedding of files was EXTREMELY difficult and have given me great grief, particularly trying to embed my videos.

Further, the process of the video making took a LONGGGG time. I had to collect the footage, then spent the course of multiple days and hours putting the videos together on Premier Pro, a program i have not had a lot of experience with. The rendering took up to 2 hours per video, and i had to render it multiple times..

But i am extremely proud of the work our group put together, and i believe everyone pulled their weight. We did not have any real issues or disagreements, only helpful suggestions.

Our inspiration for the close ups was drawn greatly from these two scenes of A Secret Life of Walter Mitty. (2013).

In the two scenes, Mitty is seen scrutinising a picture that he views as a clue to find Sean Penn. The image to him is just shapes, lines and black and white negative image.

In the second scene, Mitty is shown finally piecing the image, and the object in the image, together. He had been so caught up in other things that he had failed to notice that the image he was looking at was something very close to him - his piano.

These are the raw files of the lamps images i was assigned. The project was divided, so we took one lot of images each. Brendan took images of the wharf, whilst olivia took images at the beach. I felt that the images surrounded by greenery were most effective purely due to the contrast in colour.

These were some of the ideas for the original formatting of the house/home images. I found they complimented each other as a set in the way that they gave an insight into the subjects idea of home/house. The top strip is Brendans idea of house, the middle is my idea of house and home in one, the third is Brendans idea of home.

The project at hand was based greatly off a former project ‘One roll of Film”. The documentary saw 4 Tokyo based photographers undertake a challenge to shoot one roll of film on a Hasselblad in the streets of Tokyo. Whilst the physical concept was similar, we decided that to focus specifically on an element of visualisation (6 House, 6 Home) we were able to get straight to the heart of the project without thinking too much about what we considered house and home. It stopped our ideas from being too overthought, which we worried would cloud our original perception of the visual //
