Title Sequence

For the title sequence I could go all out and do some fancy sequence, although I don't feel as if this would benefit the film in any way. I would like to keep the intro short and simple, with no deterring the eyes as the film to come required a great deal of movement at such a fast pace, i don't want the viewers to get too fed up before the film has already begun.

This is a simple outline for the template of my credits which I will be producing in Live Type. So far this is the best animation/motion graphics programme I have found to do simple credits in, and i can easily export the files as .mov's and import them straight into final cut pro.


Here is the first draft for the title sequence, however I altered this afterwards to include my name at the beginning.


The video below is a quick example of the scrolling credits that I will use at the end of the film. Again, not too exciting or eye catching but it serves its purpose and is simple looking, as not to deter from the look of the timelapse film.

Artefact 5 - Narrative

After doing the four other artefact which were based around the sense of touch, taste, smell and sight I am now interested to take what I have learnt and experiment with what would happen if these were combined.

I am thinking instead of using one person in each experiement, but to use a whole group to test the level of interaction and whether objects can relate to a narrative.

I researched for a list of fary tales which would be recognised globally. Little Red Riding Hood had the most translations I could find.

Artefact 4 - Sight

This was a simple experiment to see if people associated colours with a range of emotions. It turned out to be a hard task for the participants, but provided some interesting results.

Past Degree Show Identities

To gather some more ideas about degree shows identity I had a look at some other degree shows in the past and what they have done.

Here is the university of Brighton's flyer for the 2008 Degree Show. This is pretty striking, and so much so that I actually remember it from last year.



This is a similar colour scheme to what we would like to use taken from the idea 'neon networks'. Here is an example of Kingston's exhibition identity for the whole school of art and design. There approach is clean and sophisticated with an edge, and their aim when designing the identity was to show how Kingston students look at things differently.










This link also shows a more current exhibition based around the word 'reveal'
http://thisisdavewood.co.uk/degree_show.html

Well enough looking at other peoples work, just hopefully this will set the standard to get us thinking.

Exhibition Ideas

Last week in a meeting for the identity of the exhibition a few of us thought of some ideas which may be a step closer to having a final idea. There were lots of words and concepts thrown around and we seemed to all decide on the popular idea of 'collide' which then became 'fusion'. We all seemed to be happy with this but then as time went on with discussion we did just start thinking it sounded like the men's razor advert.

However with this aside, we looked at visual data diagrams in colour type wheels. Something a little like this:





However I don't feel as though this is an identity which suggests more than the different of elements coming together into a circle. It is more conceptual than visual this idea, so the next step I think is to find a visual identity which can instantly recognise the image we want to portray. This sounds easy but is proving to be very difficult.

Mid Point Review

After visiting my client I felt a sense of relief that everything I had worked so hard on was finally being shown to the client.

The feedback was very positive and encouraging, all I need to do now is find a soundtrack for my film, add the ending which is the final opening event for the exhibition and then add a title page and credits.

The NAE gave me a contact for the soundtrack, local DJs Origami Box who are interested in seeing the film to see if they can work with it.

I am currently trying to upload this to the internet as it is such a huge file and 25 minutes long at the moment it seems to be a tricky task. Although Veoh, seems to be quite a fast uploader and there is no limit on the size of the file or the length so hopefully this will proove to work.
