MDDN 211 - My storyboard

243 - new background

Final background ..

MDDN 242 - My P3 idea!

What I want to do is create a processing application that references back to the worlds forces.

What I mean by "forces" is elements such as wind, earthquakes, waves of water etc.

How to portray this effect in an application I want to start off with an array of balls that float. They will almost look like particles but a bit bigger, this will be the first step of my coding. 

Next will be coding the movements of the mouse clicking and dragging the balls as a gravity pull towards the mouse. 

Once that is down I need to code it so that when you move your mouse in a circle the color changes and and the balls move in a circle portraying the wind element.

Next will be when you move left OR right, it will create a flood of balls going in that direction portraying the water element.

Next moving up and down with the mouse will turn the balls red/orange and jitter up and down to portray the element of fire. 

Lets start!

So many backgrounds! Background with path now..

 Last one...

 There are more versions than this because I don't know what one will suit the game more!

MDDN 243 - Progress so far with background

My progress on the re-vamping of the background!

To Do List:

- One or Two more trees

- Bushes for the front

- Change some colors

After to do list (might still re-vamp even more):

 

MDDN 211 - Final - My description & 3 different darknesses

Here is 3 different snapshots of color difference in my movie.... Not sure what one looks the best but have to come up with a decision.

Description of project 211

Depression

This is my Project Two for Digital Video Creation (211).

I've named this video "Little to Live for".

My emotion was depression, which can cause sadness and loneliness.

The aim was to portray this emotion in an abstract way.

My clip is heavily narrative based.

The clip starts off with a girl in bed just waking up and wondering about reality. When she sits up and looks towards the windows, the windows open up which means your entering her world. Once inside her world you see a couple of clips of people disappearing, extending that feeling of loneliness and feeling like you have no place in the world. Once the windows close, it means your back into reality which leads to shots of the girl biting here nails and rubbing her hands showing that feeling of not being wanted. The scene ends with multiple cross fades of the girl hiding away from reality underneath the safety of her covers.

Symbolism:

The symbolism I used in my movie was how the people start to disappear/fading creating that feeling of loneliness, which then leads to depression.  Also creating the feeling of not being wanted.

Colors:

The colors that I’ve used in the scenes were quite bright so I had to color correct multiple scenes to make them more darker and blue. Why blue? I chose dark deep colors and chose blue because it’s a sad and lonely color, which would portray the feeling of depression quite well.

This idea is AWESOME!!! I like how abstract the application is and also like the factor of fluidity within the application.
