Process Post # 1

For my Final Project, I have already gathered my materials. I have 4 tombstones to symbolize my 4 years of college as well as 4 bins. The bins will act as graveyards and will be filled with items from each of my years here at the University Of Tampa. I am still figuring out how to attach the tombstones to the bins, but they will each symbolize the death of my time here.

I am still working on gathering all videos and clips but it has been an enjoyable time going through my old camera rolls and taking a stroll down memory lane.

Final Project Proposal

For my final project, I wanted to do an overall reflection of my time in college and how much I have grown and changed as a person since moving to Tampa from Chicago. Being that I left everything I ever knew to come to a new place where I knew no one, coming to Tampa to continue my education has been a completely life changing experience that I want to try and encapsulate. I want to use old videos from high school in a juxtaposition with videos from freshman year - senior year. I want to put them in a sort of timeline to show a growth from being young and in my home town, to now being 22 and about to graduate from College. I want to use motion graphics to show specific lessons that I've learned, key things that have changed for me personally, and an overall sense of what this experience means to me. As for projection, I want to project mainly on the walls so people can clearly see the progression of my story, but I want to use 4 specific videos, one from each year of college th...

Artist Researc

For my last artists research, I wanted to find an artist that brings projection mapping to life more than what we ever thought. I wanted to find an artist that could show me how projection mapping could be used outside of our projects, outside of just being in a gallery. I found an artist named Ricardo Rivera and he is most known for his piece called "Electric Desert." He uses projection mapping to portray an insane, dreamlike environment for his viewers in an actual desert. People are allowed to come, walk through the desert and experience a dream like place while they are awake. I was in complete and total awe when I saw it and I had to share because this piece brought meaning to my work. http://javamagaz.com/?p=5369

Process Post for Proj. 2

I feel like I have made great strides towards this project so far. I have shot most of videos in my room and have mapped out where I am putting each video in my sketch book already. I might reshoot some of them because I want to have multiple options to work with. I have tweaked around with multiple different ideas and everything will come more to terms with my mind when I upload my videos into mad mapper. I even started writing a little piece that I might voice over or read out loud during the projection to act as a performance while I record. A part of me wants to use color tones in my videos to make them more cohesive. Maybe use tones of reds and blues but thats it. I want it to be very linear and clear to the viewers. I need to find a video or shoot a video that symbolizes a dungeon to shoot overcast in my room. I want it to show that your bedroom can turn into a dungeon after a sexual assault and it traps you in a place you thought was safe.
