My last item was a jack in the box. In my 4th Experiment i created a video which was a response to the research i did on the Final Destination franchise, I really liked how the bottom one came out and immediately thought of combining it with the jack in the box I purchased. IContinue reading “SIP_17 (Experiment 12)”

In this workshop we had to print out pictures of the work we had created and find links between them. I noticed that composition, camera angles and objects used was what was connecting the work created so far. Our next step was to take the images we had and create new images I found theContinue reading “SIP 16_ Workshop 2”

I started to get a little bored with my project, mainly because it consisted of a lot of filming and very little editing; I decided to try something new. I was extremely inspired by a specific exhibition I visited called ‘the purple shall govern by Sophie Sibande. I wanted to try editting a video IContinue reading “SIP_15 (Experiment 11)”

My fourth item was one of the trucks I used before. I wanted to try out the same concept again, with a different layout I prefer this outcome to the first one I produced.

My third item was a toy carousel. I wanted to try to make it look life size by filming at lower angles with a wide lens however, it didn’t work out. I still think they turned out really well.

My next video with the baby bottle included the alkaline seltzer experiment. The first video is a lot more dramatic but, I think this video is mesmerising. In relation to my brief which is about Horror, I believe that the previous experiment worked better,

My next item was a baby bottle. The first video I made involved the vinegar and baking soda experiment. I was also really happy with this experiment.

After collecting a few items related to childhood, I started planning on what I was going to do with them. My first item was a rubber duck. I planned on filling a tub or sink with red coloured water and filming the duck floating atop it. I really liked how this turned out and wantedContinue reading “SIP_10 (Experiment 6)”

As part of my research, I looked into the practical effects used in the Final Destination franchise. I learnt that they used a mixture of Meat, Gelatine and Fake Blood. I decided to attempt this myself. The top video is Fake Blood and Gelatine and the bottom video is Fake Blood, Gelatine and Bacon. IContinue reading “SIP_9 (Experiment 5)”

I soon started to collect children toys. I wanted to use them as a representation of the exploitation of childhood innocence in horror movies. The first toy I used were trucks. I got 2 toy trucks, placed the wheels in fake blood and pushed them along to see what they looked like. I really enjoyedContinue reading “SIP_8 (Experiment 4)”
