A2G3: Progress update 27/11/14

Gwen

Today I changed and edited the digipak, then spent a large portion of time editing images that may be used for either piece of printwork.

 I desaturated this image to reinforce the sense of loneliness and isolation that we have attempted to convey throughout the video so far.

 

 

 

I took this image and investigated both ideas previously suggested in the group, each using contrast to create emotion.

Here we see the boy in colour on a black and white background, and below a black and white boy on a saturated background.

In each example the idea that he is apart from his environment is highly prevalent, and has advanced ideological meaning.

Isaac

Today I copied Gwen in the sense that I spent the lesson editing stills taken from our footage and I have produced a number of viable images for consideration in the effort to produce great printwork, on which Gwen is leading. It's worth pointing out that Gwen's research into printwork has been purely stylistic, whereas I have been experimenting with/practicing colour correction, which is a process I will have to undertake alone at home. Here are the images, with their colour corrected versions underneath. Both Alex and Georgia did some of these, so they have contributed to the colour correction process

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Alex

Alex spent most of the lesson planning what needed shooting on his solo shoot on Saturday. He went over the footage which needed redoing with Georgia and Isaac pitched in as well.

EDIT: Alex has now finished his shoot and Georgia is reviewing the footage.

Georgia

Georgia continued her work on the editing side of the project, which is now drawing to a close. She finished editing the rough cut of the bedroom scene, and now is moving on to review the footage Alex shot on the weekend.
