October 28 Update

Field Trip:

Edward Hopper at the Whitney Museum 

I went to go see the Edward Hopper exhibit this morning and was fascinated by Hoppers use of color and his ability to portray perspective. Although it is not related to my project directly seeing how Hopper paints people and conveys a certain emotion through all his pieces is definitely inspiring. 

MindGame - Masaaki Yuasa 

MindGame is an animated movie that blew my mind! It incorporates different animation techniques throughout the movie and has a great storyline. I am going to take inspiration from how Yuasa choses to depict characters and his excellent use of color.

 

Progress:

This week I combined my animations and placed them with music. I also interviewed my mom and created subtitles which I then placed to old home videos. 

MORE CERAMICS:

I have been continuing my pots and may photograph them in some sort of animation-esque way to incorporate into my thesis. I feel like blending them within the video could be successful. 

THE MET:

The Met was lots of fun, tons of inspirational work - definitely inspired. 

THIS WEEK:

More animations!!!! More sequences.... animate maybe someone in the subway and how the cars connect when you're in the tunnels and you can see the train across from you. I was on the subway and this happened and it occurred to me to animate this. 

I have about 10 minutes of interview with my mother and sister when they were here that I have all transcribed so perhaps create more subtitles to pair with the sound.

EDIT SOUND!!! it sounds a little chaotic now which is ok... but what do I want to achieve with the sound, there must be a method to the chaos.
