Initial Inspiration

Moving image is my favourite way of sharing my work with the audience. I did an animation course at my old college and learnt a lot of interesting ways of creating moving images. My Final Major Project at college was a music video which I created to one of my favourite songs...Rise Against - Audience Of One. Below I have selected some useful videos of my old work to try and gain some inspiration on how I can approach the Print To Pixel brief...

The video above was part of my Final Major Project. Even though the piece is extremely short a lot of time went into creating this...detail to the size of the heart and keeping it central were very difficult. There were 13 images included in this video and the video lasts 2 seconds meaning it ran roughly at 6 frames per second.

The image above, again from my FMP, relates to the lyrics - "I can still remember the words and what the meant As we etched them with our fingers In years of wet cement".

I have created this using collage and at the end I had 6 images in the piece. The piece runs for 3 seconds meaning it is running at 2 fps. 

This video was also in my FMP and relates to the lyrics "We ran like vampires from a thousand burning suns".

I created this using my camera, taking a photo every time Mike moved, this creates a jumpy effect to the piece which I really like. This piece is running at a greater fps rate than the previous two videos and lasts for 6seconds.

The video below shows a simple stop motion of my boyfriend moving towards the camera. Every time Matt took a step forwards I captured the image. I really like the eyrie quality of this piece...

In college we did a group project called the Iron Man. The piece is created in a stop motion fashion and also edited in photoshop...Link to youtube below...
