I’m really happy with this outcome. After the crit, I was really stuck on what to do next; however, I believe I was able to address and fix many of the problems that were pointed out. If i was to change anything I would work on some of the individual circles more. I believe that aContinue reading “A trip to the underworld”

I was really happy with the outcome however, after the crit I decided to work on problems people pointed out. Problems: People who don’t know the book Dante’s inferno will find it hard to follow Some of the circles are boring and being overshadowed by other circles It’s hard to focus on the individual circlesContinue reading “SIP_26 (A trip to the Underworld practice outcome)”

The next thing I had to do was decide what the context of my video was going to be. I looked into the defintion of portals and came across this. After reading this, I immediately thought of a book i’ve read called ‘Dante’s inferno’. Dante;s inferno is about a man who is taken on aContinue reading “SIP_25 (Development 7)”

My next idea was similar to the previous development stage. I wanted to add an overlay of a bird and make it disappear as the cloud glitches. I really liked this outcome, the only problem I had was with the clouds. I thought the glitches were too much. I decided to not use this inContinue reading “SIP_24 (Development 6)”

After deciding how to utilise the circle, I started to see if I could add different aspects to the final video. I wanted to see if I could make everything seem more like a simulation was glitching. I started experimenting with overlays. I added a tree overlay at the left of the video. I wantedContinue reading “SIP_23 (Development 5)”

I started to experiment with transitions. I wasn’t sure how I would structure the cloud circles. I first tried scale and then I tried a glitch effect I decided I preferred the glitch effect over the scale effect. I just needed to figure out a way to prevent the black from showing.

My next idea included a phone and a glitch. This was the first time I tried out the use of circles and clouds. I really liked this outcome. This is when I decided that i’d definitely use clouds and circles in my final outcome.

I then decided to test out an idea I had. I knew I wanted to explore the use of portals so, I came up with the idea of a door that leads to somewhere else. I recorded 2 clips, one of a door opening and another of a forest; I placed them together and triedContinue reading “SIP_20 (Development 2)”

I first got an empty roll of tissue and taped it to my camera. I then went outside and took videos of the sky. Unfortunately, the sky was pretty clear on this day so there weren’t many clouds however I really liked the circles in the finished product. I then did the same thing howeverContinue reading “SIP_19 (Development 1)”

After my last experiment, I felt quite confused as to my mext step. I found myself becoming extremely uninterested in my brief. I decided to revisit it and see if I can fix this problem. After thinking about it and sifting through many ideas, I decided to make a response to a movie I watchedContinue reading “SIP_18 (New Brief)”
