I wanted to create a feeling of the blocks moving through space even tho it was a 2D image.I firstly used a pre-made image of space from pexels then cropped and pasted the blocks ,adjusting hue,saturation and colour to both the foreground and background.I have used photoshop before but still found it very hard to navigate.I would like to of done more prehaps using a black starry background and more adjustment of positioning but I felt like i was constantly going 5 steps forward then 10 steps back.
In this video I wanted to give a feeling of unease.The blocks of my art I have selected I wanted to represent objects and people moving through time and space.I wanted the scraping noise that I had created by dragging a brick to bring about a feeling of unease before the audience are enveloped into what feels like a black hole whilst Steven Hawkings describes what would happen to you whilst you are in one.When this video is being viewed on a screen the person is also left with a ‘black mirror’ looking at themselves for 55 seconds.Because when everything else in this world is gone they are left only with themself for company which poses the question ‘how comfortable are we with our inner self?’
I still think that this video also links well to my original theme of homelessness because people see you but then you’re gone out of sight and out of mind.
This was my first time using premiere and I feel that it was a pretty sucessful outcome considering.Altho some of the edits on the brick sound could be a little neater.I felt that premiere has an easy visual approach which makes sense in comparison to photoshop and I feel encouraged to use it in the future for future projects
