In this lecture we focuses on videos or artists work
I really like Sara's work "the accident."
It was about her uncle and how he tried and tried until he created something he liked. The music was quite bubbly and casual and Sara used ink blotches which some how suited the music. I liked the story line to Sara's work and loved how the video expressed Sara's family.
I liked the radio head video also, it was shot or different radio head songs and as radio head is a rock band the animation really capture the messiness or rock music, also through out radio heads songs shows branding as they use the same characters and similar illustrations

SARA - after effects
https://vimeo.com/164757936
In this process and production we were asked too create a sea creature on Indesign too animate on after affects. I chose too create a crab. I used the motion blur tool too give a smother movement too the animation. I also used a invisible object and attached the fish as the child layer so the fish would follow the invisible parent object. I used the hollywood formula as shown in a seminar. setting the scene, the crab is in the ocean, he's trying the catch the fish but they are too fast, then the shark comes, did the crab survive? I decided to leave the story on a cliff hanger.

SARA- z space
In our second after affects lesson we learnt how to use the camera settings to create a 3d affect. We were asked to pick a quote or a song lyric too work with for the lesson, I chose a line from Coldplays song Paradise. I chose the line "she ran away in her sleep and dreamed of paradise". I picked a font I thought was quite calming and "Dreamy" and created the words on different layers in illustrator. I then animated them on after affects. I set back the words from each other and used the camera to pan across the words. I then found a free wall texture to use for the back ground. This gave the animation a eire look.
I used standard HD settings in After affects
W: 1920 px, H1080 px, R 75 px per inch.
I created my text first of all in photoshop and realised one imported into after affects the lines around the lettering were quite pixelated and not smooth and crisp. I then created the text again in illustrator and imported it again into after affects. The lettering was smooth and crisp this time.
Tools I learnt
Sharpen
3d on/off
2 views, Top and active camera, you would use this while creating a 3d animation.
The green arrow is to move an object along the Y axes
The blue arrow is to move an object along the Z axes
The red arrow is to move an object along the X axes
to create a camera you would select Layer - New - Camera
I changed the camera settings
Type - two node camera
Preset - 50 mm

SARA- kinetic typography
https://vimeo.com/156152136
Our Task was to choose a font and create a kinetic typography 20 second long video. I found a free font that I liked on dafont.com. The font is called Dolce Vita designed by MuraKnockout + design. Dolce Vita is a capital sans serif font which has a professional appearance. The type face is sharp with the the odd italic character giving the font its identity. The font is similar too the font used in the Dolce & Gabbana logo which I imagine MuraKnockout + design where inspired the designers of this type face. I Decided to use soft neutral colours in my video as i think thats what suited the type face.

Convergence
Cut up and Collages
Chinese Booze pill.. its the shit! Says Big P Morgan
this seminar was about Convergence, Taking something old and making something new.
We took a news paper and decided to make a new news head line. We decided to make it a bit more fun as Piers Morgan can be quite a serious man. This showed up how we can take something old and transform it into something new.

Ideas and Theories
Ideas and Theories
Our task was to create a piece too show how to have an idea. I decided to create a flow chart and how my mind usually genrates an idea.
I Start by researching, I look for a starting point, usually inspired by other artists. I then have some form of idea and get stuck on the same idea until I realise "this idea is crap''. I then begin to research again, looking either for a new idea or somthing to improve the first idea. When I FINALLY think of an idea I will think and carry on research until I love the idea. I then have to think things such as audeance, composition, approch and material. I usually then evaluate it over and over and over again until I have a SUPER DUPER IDEA!! I then go ask other people. Do you like this idea if so how could I improve this idea. If people do think its shit, i'll usually have a bit of a strop and start nearer too the begining of the flow chart. If people think "WOW thats a Billiant idea" I then start to question my self....Is it fit for purpose? Is it unique and eye catching? does it reach the target audeance? If it does then i'll build on the idea until i'm satisfied its fantastic!

Future Genealogie!
Future Genealogies
Our task was too pick a theme and to think of an out come based on this theme. We chose the theme ‘'Dinosaurs come back!’’ We started by mind mapping possible out comes such as a dinosaur zoo, using them to generate energy and keeping them as pets! Then we finally came to the conclusion that we could lower our carbon foot print by using the dinosaurs as transport. We thought we could replace buses with T-rex, Planes with Pterodactyl and bikes and cars replaced with smaller dinosaurs such as raptors. At the time we thought this is a great idea but then we had to take into consideration the risk of attacks and accidental deaths that could occur! First we would have to train people how to ride the dinosaurs and to train the dinosaurs not too attack or eat people. We would put something in place so the dinosaurs after been trained wouldn't give them a chance too bite such as a muzzle around the mouth, just incase the instinct does kick in, and making sure there fully fed so they are not hungry while working . We would have 'Ptero airlines' for the dinosaur air transport and ‘Tauranasport' companies for the dinosaur land transport. We would have seperarte paths away from the public path ways and civilisation to reduce the chance of an attack or an accident occurring. We would ask for people using this type of transport to purchase insurance just incase accident does occur. To ensure the dinosaurs are not over worked we would have a set amount of time a week the dinosaurs are legally allowed to work which would be stated in an “Dinosaurs right act” which would ensure they are healthy and happy. After the dinosaurs have worked they would be placed back into a reserve with other dinosaurs the same species were they can happily live with all there needs and requirements.
