Get 'em done

Wednesday April 22, 2015

I need to go to Adler to take the last pictures of the apple and later finalize the video, because tomorrow will be the last day of revision.

Need some Changes!!! watch out with the pixels!!!

Tuesday April 21, 2015

I presented the video to the professor she liked, but I still have this concern of the music. Anyways, she told me that I have to work with the transition, overlapping the image, so we can see the transformation. Other advice, was mix the image with chemicals (food colors and water) and in the end putted the logo of APPLE. Also, the background maybe don't do the zoom because we want to see the actual moment when Eve offered the apple to Adam. So, the apple still can have this tone of desire when start to change. After she gave me a high 5. Cool beans!!!


What I want to express in this video?

After watching for several times I want to show controversialism between the apple and the mass production companies that change the world in a bad way. Apple is not a fruit anymore, apple is business, consumerism, capitalism, chemic, GMO, Monsanto, and so on. I want to transmit that apple is a symbol of desire in a variety ways.

IF I SLEEP I WILL LOST TIME!!!!

I was frustrating until BOOM!!! I figured was I'm doing wrong in the  editing process of my video. Here some sneak pics.











 


















Frustration started with F on Friday!!!

Friday April 24, 2015

What a day!!! Everything is wrong!!

The professor told me to take picture a different apple more rounded and red. I did. But the problem came after this.
















When I putted in the Premier the idea looked really off, not like I was planning. I spend the whole Friday working in this and now I'm so stress because the video looks so sloppy and amateur. But I found this for inspiration!!!


Imagination!!!!!

That happened in the same day that I showed the teacher my project. I think is remarkable this situation that way I'm writing in other section and on bold.

BULB LIGHT!!!!

Ok, while I was talking with the professor about this project she went to her computer and we started to find an image that shows the context that I was looking for. She told me that could be an interesting idea to use Adam and Eve showing the apple as a element of desire. While she was looking for an image of this event, something happened an AWESOME idea came, but not only me, also the teacher has the same impression. The impression that we had was amazing because was something that we were thinking in the same scene. 

The idea was use this image of Adam and Eve. So when Eve gave to Adam the apple, this fruit will change in different stages and forms.  WOW!!! I was trilled and I had goosebumps. I never had this experience before, but now I have to work in this idea.


I will use this image from the painter Peter Paul Rubens. The painting is called The Fall of Man. 

Proyecto Manzana

Ok I was playing a lot with the apple and videos and I think that I have something to show in class. Actually, already showed to my classmate and I posted on Instagram and Facebook. No comments yet, but It was way cool to do that.

This is the video that I showed in class.


Advices from the professor.

The transitions have to be long and the background have to change because the apple have to have a context. This context could be Adam and Eve. In other words give the connotations of desire and how the apple change during the time.








Nothing as it seems

Experiment day!!!

Wednesday April 8, 2015

Today was the day that I took several pictures to the apple. Actually, I started to create props to the apple because I really want to make this project a big deal. I feel good about my ideas now!!!
First I experimented with food colors and water, money, paintings, and wired. I want that my idea become powerful. Actually, I have this idea of chemicals that now are part of the fruit. So, I played with them and their movements in the water. This pictures are from the process from my experimentation. the shape of the apple was create in photoshop.

Sketch of the posibilites of the transformation of the apple.



That is my apple.


Food colors experimentation



















Later I experimented with money and this was the solution.







Later on I experimented with a prop made of barbed wire by myself.
I putted this picture in Facebook and Instagram and I have some comments about this creation.





 Later I colored the apple like the famous logo I LOVE NY.



I think I love experimenting about this theme. I love how everything turn in something unexpected. I have a good time doing this.
