Design Principals and Proposal

I ended up selecting the image at the very top of the list for my project. I chose this image because it has a lot of variety through the use of horizontal lines, leading lines, curved lines, and diagonal lines. This adds interest to the shot and make it feel more alive. I was also going to add contrast in the color of the lines to create conflict. Another reason that I ended up choosing this image is because the proportion and the leading lines create emphasis on the pendulum. For the lighting I am going to have the lines giving off cool light and the sun give off warm light. I will also have the pendulum give off white light to create emphasis through contrast of light.

Film Score Investigation

When used correctly in conjunction with visuals, music can transform the emotional experience of a film. Some of the most memorable moments of a film are because of the score. Film scores can be used to build tension, fear, or any emotion. For this investigation I will be learning about how to create a film score. The Psychological Effect of Music In Film 1 during our study of film history we discussed what is known as the Kuleshov effect. The Kuleshov effect is an analysis of how the audiences interpretation of an image changes in relation to the next image. So if you have a man with a neutral face and you cut to a hamburger and back to the man he looks hungry. Similarly, music creates a tone for the visuals presented to the audience. This tone is what allows the audience to understand the emotions they are intended to be feeling while viewing the film. A grea...

Final Robot Animation

This project was an incredible learning experience that is applicable for both film and animation. What I learned was that goals must remain relevant to the task being performed at hand. The hardest part of this project was creating the concept that I had produced in pre production. The idea and goals that I created for myself in pre production were simply not possible with the time I allowed myself to accomplish them. The worst part about this predicament is that it forces you to decide what corners need to be cut in production to meet the deadline. The painful part is choosing the right corners to cut which allow the story to retain most of its original form. I ended up having to cut out the entire planned ending and shorten the film, completely altering the overall meaning. Next time I will use this information to better judge the time required to accomplish certain tasks. However, I did have a few successes though. These include, lighting large areas in pleasing and understandabl...
