TIME BASED MEDIA EVALUATION

EVALUATION: TIME BASED MEDIA

I have found the experience of working with contemporary time based forms of art and design valuable as, it includes creating work with Ict and cameras, which means they will last longer than drawings. However, I prefer working with drawings more, as I am able to include mote detail in drawings and Im able to show what I am capable of through this.
The recordings that turned out the best are, the reportage drawing, action painting and the stop frame animations.
The reportage drawing worked quite well, as I used different media's such as pencil and marker pens to create different drawings of objects from around the room. However, I may have taken too much time creating the drawings as they are only meant to be 2 minute sketches. 128/

I think that the action painting went perfectly as the camera catches every movement of the paint being dropped which looks really effective.

Also, the stop frame animations work really well, however the second one I created is a lot better than the first as this was created in college with a professional camera, where as the first one was created at the civic on a machine.

However, the Zoetrope and Imovie didn't work as well as the others, as while we were creating the Imovie we didn't have enough time to finish editing the footage, so it wasn't complete. Also, the Zoetrope was created at the civic, so there wasn't really any planning for this piece. This is something that I would change if I had the time to help me achieve a higher grade.

I think that my time based research is quite effective, as I have researched different artists such as Helen green, David Hockney, and Bill viola to show the types of time based media that exist, such as GIFS,  videos, images etc.
I found the civic exhibition really interesting as you could interact with each piece of work, which I thought was very creative. I also learned how to create a Zoetrope and stop frame animation here, which I really enjoyed.

I have planned, organised and prepared design solutions for time based work by creating story boards, such as for my stop frame animation to show the kind of animation I would like to make.

Also, I have taken my own images for my research whilst I was in newyork, to create my GIF, which I think works quite well.

This is the link to the GIF I have created:

Throughout this project I have created GIFS, Zoetropes, Thaumatrope's, stop frame animations, mind maps, and reportage drawings as part of my practical work. Which I am really pleased with as I had never done any of this before.

The only problems I have had throughout this project were not knowing how to edit footage on an Imovie properly, which I think Ive gotten better at and being unable to upload videos to my blog;because of this I uploaded them to my YouTube channel, so that they were able to be viewed there.
Everything that I have created or written about during this project, I have uploaded to my blog, which also contains images and videos of how they've been made.

As I missed the first week of this project due to the newyork college trip, I think that Ive managed my time really well because as I  am a aware, I have completed everything needed to pass this project.
