We have had lots of feedback from our installation looks good so far. Our idea for the installation came out more or less how we planned it to come out apart from the projector, that we didn’t do as it would looks like too much so we stuck with the basics. Never less it came out externally well as our plan seemed more complex. Later on we will read our feedbacks and work out our mean for the results. Hopefully they’ll look good.

Izzy, Alfie and I have finally gotten our tally for our total. These are our results and total.

 

Yesterday I started to put together our animation and today I’ve finished it, put the piano music over it and now all we need is the script and 4 sound effects, that is the paper, bed etc. now i’ll just be putting the writing in as that is all we have for the minute, I do need to download the bed squeaking.

We made posters, I illustrated one with Izzy, while Alfie on the other hand made one in Photoshop. Here is the one i made ( with Izzys input ) and put some writing on the bottom.

This is our final production piece that Izzy, Alfie and I have done to promote our animation. The final piece of these posters are supposed to represent LGBT depression and the causes of suicide within the LGBT community. The words all over the posters are slurs that are tossed about all the time like there’s no meaning to when really, there’s significant meaning to to them.

Balance- is mostly an equal, if you were to look up ‘balance photography’ you would see images mostly of landscape because it’s more or less what balance is.

Emphasis- Focuses on the main subject, but if it was there alone it’ll look blank and your focus would be everywhere, the best example of this is the Les Mis movie poster as the girls hair goes across the whole page and covers everything but we always go back to the girls face.

Rhythm- Is almost like a texture, like when you run your hand across a brick wall and can feel one brick go to another, you can feel the rhythm in the image.

Scale- This is as simple as having a small human with someone right up at the frame in a 180 degree, you’ll be able to see them both. Scale can be represented in many ways.

Today for our installation we got a big piece of card and painted it black. Tomorrow we need to splatter red paint to represent blood. Earlier today we also took a variate of pictures for our shoot in the dance studio that we later printed out. Currently Izzy is cutting out the pictures. We will do a projection with TV static gif in the background tomorrow as it’ll give more effect.

To plan the instillation and to figure out where the props go, we had to take photos of the room we are going to use and then draw it out so we could plan what we had to move and where the props could go.

These two images show the front wall and the back wall of the photography room. The front wall has the entrance to the dark room as well as a desk and whiteboard.

The back wall has a whiteboard and clipboards to showcase students work. There is also a table in the middle of the room.

Alfie had an idea that we went into the dark room and had a white box  with on the right you’d have the pride flag and on the left would be splattered with red  paint. It’ll be one side dark and one side light.  The dark side will have the colour red that indicates death, pain and anger. We will also have a chair and a noose hanging, this’ll all be on the dark side.

However, on the light side we’ll have a white light with a pride flag hanging on the wall  with the light going through the light in which can represent light and hope within the community.

Finishing our project we are now uploading our finished project to youtube.

We made a plan for the last week we have to polish everything. This is our plan…

After editing the animation and watching it all over, we made a good choice   with the subject we chose as it’s something we can all relate to. I ended up doing the voice over as Izzy didn’t want to do it. The work that wasn’t practical was pretty easy as we all had a lot of knowledge on it as we did but it was digging deeper. we found out a lot more for our animation “stop motion” was actually a “pixelation”  animation. There wasn’t a lot i could write for this blog entry.
