Week 7: - Additional potential future developments


Artist:
This drawing, which has been completed in ballpoint pen, ink, marker, and paper ink as a collage by Vicente Aguado plays on the idea of Human Reactions that we are focusing on for our own work.

Incorporate:
In terms of adding this into our own work, and developing from what we have already established, we would be using the green screen to show parts of the human body being swapped with bizarre animal parts.

This will show the human reaction to distorted images of themselves. It may also change their perception on animals or the difference between animals and humans.

It is a very intriguing and different take on the traditional green screen backdrop change.

WEEK 10: Planning the presentation and pre recorded footage:

Workshop week 10 planning:

Group name: “Frankly not Frank

On Wednesday we will be filming the pre-recorded footage in the green screen studio (T21).

Green screen is what we’re using the for the pre recorded footage
Blue screen is what we will be using as an interactive element of the final presentation:
The audience will walk in front of a blue strip and be projected onto photos of other spaces we’ve taken photos of. This will be a concept of what the space will technically do.

On the presentation week we think we should have:

-       Our fully edited pre-recorded footage projected on a wall in a continuous loop.
-       Two A1 Posters: a.) One poster showing the physical exhibition in the Tea Gardens.
                              b.) One poster showing the flow of the exhibition.
-       The interactive blue screen element. (We need to figure out how to stream this)

Three sections to the presentation: The interactive element, the pre recorded projections, an a laptop set up showing the behind the scenes process.

Filming the pre recorded footage:

-       We need to think about where the camera will be set up: Is it on the ground, on a stand or high up?
-       Walking towards the camera, panoramic projection,
-       Put a sound scape to it.

Makes sense in the non linear context: Make it non linear to take it back…
If you edit it afterwards you can drop the sequence in different
Bring two or three pairs of shoes in to make it seem like there’s more of an audience.

Three cameras from different angles: one set up on the ground filming our legs and feet, other set up on a tripod to film out top half and the third set up to film us from a distance.

(We will also set up one or two phones to do a time-lapse of us setting up to put on our blog).

WEEK 8: Research on stairs


Research of external steps of shipping containers, we want to look at putting in external steps as our exhibition will be 2 shipping containers high so the viewers need a way of getting to the top. 




We also wanted to explore the idea of potentially having the stairs up to the second level inside of the shipping containers so here is some research of this. 






WEEK 9: Ways of stacking/laying out the containers
