Midterm corrections

• there is a line in the beginning of the movie in the fade in
• take st, ave, and rd out of signs
• the other work sign should be moved above the horizon
• descriptor for other work is problematic
• Who's Controlling You should have a question mark
• different font in the beginning
• religion scene is too fast and need to be more readable
• blood should run down screen
• in the swallow or gulf in 3rd scene should be more expressive

Pitch for final

I will continue the idea of control making use of the video game. This time it will be about a young black man controlled by economy. First he is seen in store looking at some items that he can't afford. He then gets fired from job. He is very distraught. Quick shots of him not being able to pay for his rent. He starts to rob people. Camera zooms up and he has had puppet strings attached to him the whole time and it is a man named economy pulling his strings.

Project Midterm revise

Well after restless nights, this project has come to a close. I was able to link the sound with the image pretty well and I made corrections to my errors. I did notice that there are a few very small errors though that need revision.

Check points for midterm project

Things that need to change

Add Title

Kim Jong-il picture should be smoother

Walk of shame is too slow

South Korea should be better aligned

Korean flag should possibly go on shirt

Look more Korean

Audio

Video game music

Make more a video game theme

Cut between second and third scene is a bit slow

Surprised look after intranet is problem – make different web page

Change name of Google

In the early scenes he should walk into the grass and then get shot – maybe have someone yelling no walking on grass or have words that come up and say you loose a life

He gets shot in intranet room and blood scatters on screen

Gets wound by religious gate

Have a sign that says you have a freedom to religion

As he is walking he should have a blood trail

He should die at the end

Assignment Critique for Midterm

The Project

The basic idea was thought out for a while but it took a while to decide how I would show complex information through simple visual imagery. So far I have gotten all of my assets completed and the After Effects file is underway. In order for completion it needs to be timed better. I have a number of different compositions that all represent different scenes and it will be difficult to transition from scene to scene. I also plan to add visual cues and music at certain points because it might be over a minute.

Dynamic Imaging Proposal revise
-The general concept for my project is control.
- I thought of forms of control and puppets initially came to mind, but I decided use video games as control and what if you were in a video game.
- Who would be pulling your strings?

Plot:
1. Begins with close-up of face. Man is running frantically.
2. There are four different crossroads
3. He chooses everything that is not his choices.
4. The camera zooms out and its television screen that someone is playing a video game.
5. It ends and words slam the screen saying “who’s controlling you.”

Possible Topics for crossroads include:
1. Teachers control over students
2. Economic control over citizen
3. Dictator over citizens
4. Bully’s opinion over class-mate

Project Proposal and Outline

RahLeeCoh J. Ishakarah
Project 5 Proposal
My general focus for this class is on different aspects of control.
For this particular project, the focal point will be about the control of a large amount of people in the suppression of one individual (this also represents simply minority vs. majority).

Sequence:
1. Two mouth-people walk in from both sides of the panel (one-right, one-left)
2. They exchange three blahs (these represent any form of argument) between each other- the one on the left side blah glows more intensely with the louder or larger his blah gets. The right-side mouth’s blah is bolder in black and reduces in size when the other gets larger…
3. …Until two more mouths join him.
4. The left mouth still tries to hold up but when 3 more come in making 6 against 1, the left side words dim a bit.
5. This reoccurs until there are a total of 12 blahs against 6. Suddenly they start to shout blah at the same time and create a massive blah that is shot at left-side blah, whose words have gotten dimmer, smaller, and fainter.
7. The large blah then pushes his blah into his mouth and it pops out the other side as a thought bubble.
8. He has been driven to only personal resistance which he internalizes until it begins to shake and blah!!! explodes out of his mouth and he falls down and shatters before the words reach the other side, it fades out.

Examples:

Stick Fight

Screaming Eggs

Stick Fight - Sword

Project from hell

Project 4 revise

Ok, so I just could not follow the tutorial at first and once i did time began to run out and I stumbled too many times. I'll try it later

1. create title

2. precompose

3. create all other logos in different comps

4. create particle effect - adjust in effects window

5. bring camera in and operate by null

6. create adjustment label to blur

7. bring all other text in

8. bring final title in

Project 4

Kim Jung-il
Project 4
March 1
This project was challenging because sometimes the tutorial video had his setup a little different from own which made it a little more difficult to follow but I eventually understood it more.
- I decided to go in a direction more in line with the last projects revision.
- I had spoken to someone with LINK Libery In North Korea and it inspired me to go further with my last content; therefore I have created a title sequence for the last project.

Assignment 3

Project 3 February 22
Individual
Everyone mainly suggested that I work more on the idea as far as what was being conveyed by words. They also believed that I need to work on timing.
- I really agree with all of this- and it inspired me to really revise and change my content while still maintaining the same direction.
