I am finding it hard to find things for theis third assignment. The artifacts that we are looking for have to be very small and have some kind of outline and shape to them so that they will look intesting when we put it on the film that is going to be rolled out in the front of us. I relly thought the coffee to develope film was very interesting and thought about what else was possible for house hold items. I relly enjoys the groups films that went I though that was a very good project and thought the animation part came out much better then I thought it was going too. I am in a group that did not get to go last thursday so I am looking forward to it. I just worry about my animation as I think everyone was before they showed theirs. I also hope that the mag transfer stay on. we will just have to see

E W F & W

This photo reminded me of the projesct that we have been working on. It is something of the shape of part of my animation so I thought I would put it into my blog. The harted part is getting everything together and trying to figure out the order of my film. what ans where everything should go on the film. Everything else seems to be going good.

Project earth wind and fire

I have not started much on this project yet. I have done some bleach on the film and I think I like how it looks. I did have some trouble with the animation part. I had not idea that it would take so long if you want to do it right. I found that if you use a ruler and things to measure things out in a 24 or 25 frame area it works and keeps things even. I did pick up some paints and i am going to test them out soon. I think that I am going to have to lay out a whole role and do work on it in one 3 or 4 day chunk. we will see how that goes over.

The Real First

This class seems to be going alright in my mind. Interesting, thats for sure. I do enjoy the hands on part and putting my hands on film. I like the fact that it is not like any other film class. It is very experimental so far and that is an area of film that I have not been trained at as much as some other areas of film. That makes it much more interesting because 80% of the things that we learn and talk about are new to me. The most interesting thing so far was in the class in the film by Norman Mclaren. It was very interesting and the best experimental film that I think I have ever seen. To just think of the labor that went into the timing and music for those films is just amazing.
