Week 1: Minor Project

Monday, 19th September 2016 - Sunday, 25th September 2016

This week I have began putting together my ideas to form a proposal for my minor project. This will be due on the 14th November 2016, As my chosen pathway is editing, I want to develop new skills in visual effects. Experimental ideas so far include:

• ·         Animation into a realistic environment

• ·         Green Screening.

• ·         Split Screening

• ·         Mapping.

I will be researching on how to do some of these VFX and will gather some footage to test some of these before I do a final piece.

After my session on Friday, I have thought further into what I can do as an experimental piece. As well as partially collaborating alongside another student, I have began thinking about how testing different colour screen when chroma keying a background. Examples: Green, Blue, Orange, Red screens. Then discuss the outcomes and see if it makes any differences. I still also want to add in some cartoon animation into realistic environments. Space Jam is an example of what I could look into.

My current thought process is now, doing a dream state experimental piece. I want to shoot it from a POV perspective as the character is walking. I can add creepy animated models into the sequence as well as allowing me to experiment with different film effects. Experimenting with overexposure and brightness. I want it to be very dream like.
