As Live

Today i have gotten all my time tables up to date i am still waiting on deadlines from the producers form now till production day, so hopefully i will get them dates soon. Now the plan of action is to keep on top of things and make sure both teams are up to date and are keeping on target with their dead lines.

Location shoot. Workshop

I had missed the lesson with Helen where she had asked us to look at the first chapter from a selection of books the book i picked to do was 1984 by George Orwell, the reason i used this story was because it was a little easier for me to read but was also a challenge still so i picked up on lines and words to help me create the short video i created.

The images i used came from mote park and CCTV from UCA student halls, i also used my friend Jessica Glasspool to pose so i could take a headshot picture and crop out her eyes from that image.

Permission:

Mote Park: Friends of mote park, Unknown management.
The reason i picked this for most of my images was because this park has so much History behind it and the space is wide, but also there is a sense of oldness about it and almost gothic feel with the bare tree's due to the season (winter).

CCTV Cameras: UCA accommodation Office Debby Dickman.
The reason for CCTV cameras was so my audience knew they was being watched and CCTV is everywhere now, The reason for UCA accommodation was just because it was on my doorstep.

Eyes: The person they belong to.
The eyes where added to make my audience feel even more so like they are being watched, so i have the eyes flashing up after every picture.

Music: The music i would have to ask the composer and or the record labile they are part of so in my case it would be Yanns Tiersen.

Overall i found this project quite challenging but over all i tried my hardest to stay true to the parts of the story i picked up on, overall i think i was a little successful but i did like my end product.

Punch lines: Comics

Last night i attended a comedy night in aid to help find a comic to be part of the show punchlines team the lady we saw was amazing she was funny and touched on a lot of topics that is going on with the world at this moment, After her set me, Sam Wilder and James Ogden had a quick chat with her gave her a brief of what we was looking for she was more than happy to pass on a email address and a mobile number and also she gave us a insight what she is up to and when she was busy.

Fiction-

After speaking to some one who does GC Arts and Animation course at UCA and they said what i wanted would take too long so my idea has to change slightly i am now going to have to do multiple layering and mix in a little bit of animation with real video that i will film myself based on the film factory girl.

The story looks a bit into Andy Warhol.

Meeting,

Today we all have a meeting for urban review, I will be taking down their minuets and making sure they dont need any cameras booking out or anything else, hopefully i will be able to help them out and make up for not being in monday when i was off sick.

As Live- Urban review meeting/ Funny people meeting

Today i met up with Mel to talk about her production and to kind of get up to date with everything and she is doing very well her idea is great, also she is well organised she knows what she wants and who she wants, she did have some concerns but ive mentioned to her i will help her sort anything out,

My next meeting with be with sam wilder i want to try and get up to date with him see where he is at and really just help him along and do the same for him as i have with mel and really keep everyone motavated witht he projects.


Just to finish off i am also finding time to fit in my own personal work and seeing what i can do as and when i can so my essay research is still on going i have a strong idea for my fiction idea and all i need to do is get hold of some illastrators and animators once i know simon is happy with my idea.

Fiction Unit- Mood Board

Here are a few images of how i would like my video to look.

I like the dark but glam look
 this image shows us



This is the type of image im looking
for when it comes to
my animation the style suits the
burton style

With this image i was trying to show
how i would like black and white/grey scale
can be mixed with colour

I want to try mix animation with
real life and i will try and
this through doing green screen

The UV is an idea to try and slowly
mix real life and animation
together if this doesnt feel right
i will use an illistrator to draw over images
and mix them both together
