A Few Favorite Films

    Good: I like how you manage to showcase many of your favorite films in a single GIF.

    Bad: The sheer amount of activity in this gif does make it a little hard to focus on any one thing though. This could be a good thing though, if you want the viewer to feel like you have an overwhelming variety of films you like.

    Possible Fix: Condensing the number of TVs down to 4 and making each one transition between 3 different films would improve the viewer's focus. It would also help to improve the transition between the end and start of the loop so that it's less jarring.

    I really like how you added a personal touch to this with some of your favorite films! The way you displayed them is also unique and adds a really nice element to separating the images! I agree that there is a little much going on, so it's a little hard to focus, but I think that can also be beneficial depending on the point you're making. Did you make all the GIFs in the screens? If so, how? Great job!

Storyboard

   This is my storyboard for the stop motion project. As I was brainstorming ideas for this project, I thought about the parts of my daily life that incorporate a lot of motion that I could capture. I listen to records every night, and I thought the process of putting a record on the turntable had some potential for interesting motion to play with. My plan is to use music in my video to push the story forward as well. A song will play throughout the video, but it will sound muffled and far away. Once the needle hits the record, the song will become clear and transition into the credits or title card. Please let me know your thoughts and suggestions!

New Media in Art: 212-232 Response

   This section of the book discusses the internet and its inherent relationship with art that involves the active participation of the viewer. At the time of this book's publication, the internet and its unique culture was certainly not what we know it to be today, but we can see the inception of humorous and satirical internet art projects that one is used to seeing online now through groups like ®TMARK. Video games and the continual popularity of virtual reality projects is what one might think of in terms of internet art with user participation today, but at what point do these participatory art forms become less about the art in collaboration and more about being a pastime and a way to turn off the brain for a while?    One could always make the argument that video games, movies, and the latest virtual reality experiences exist as a means for escapism. Furthermore, all art has the capacity to provide escapism both to the artist and the viewer. However, the typ...
