DTC 355 Stop Motion Storyboard

My idea for this stop motion project is to create a recreation of the Phantom of the Opera with hands as my actors.

    This is a super fun idea! I can't wait to see how it turns out! Are you considering adding any kind of "costumes" to differentiate between "characters"?

    I think this idea really works as a project, and its also smart because you could theoretically do this yourself. I mentioned this on someone else's storyboard, but I also think you could push your story further with lighting. Along with the spotlights on the characters, Phantom of the Opera (and other Broadway shows) use different colors of light to push the mood of the scene.

    Good luck!

    Great idea! I think this is a great and unique storyboard idea. I would agree with Taylor that costumes would help make the characters easy to identify. You could even consider adding music from the show to make your theme clearer. I can't wait to see it complete!

Code of Best Practices Response

This document was something I was really interested in reading as I went into it, copyright and fair use conversations are becoming more and more prevalent in our society, yet often the exact rules of what constitutes copyright infringement don’t always seem to be clear. Something I didn’t think about that was brought up in the document was about how nonprofessional video can be much more easily distributed nowadays, and as such there is more of a chance for these amateur videos to possibly have an affect on established businesses, making knowing these laws even more important. What I was surprised to read was that fair use does not necessarily have an explicit letter of law, but rather it is flexible and able to be changed to apply to different circumstances. I can definitely see how this is a good attribute, as art in particular is a very broad field, so applying one set law to regulate it would be very difficult. However, I also think it’s possible that this kind of system could l...

The Vitality of Digital creation Response

Although I think a lot of this reading was unnecessarily verbose, and in some places it seemed like the author was using obscure synonyms for words just for the sake of it, it did bring up some interesting points. I found the author's discussion in this reading about how virtual images are created in a computer to be particularly thought provoking. He refers to the way computers can be used to apply mathematical algorithms that are capable of generating realistic looking objects much faster than a painter could. For me this made me question the legitimacy of this kind of art, if it's done through a computer algorithm does it really require any skill to complete? I think what it comes down to is how an artist utilizes the algorithm, although it might not take skill to run the algorithm, it does take a competent designer to place and manipulate the objects in the virtual world in a pleasing or meaningful way. I also agree with the author when he says that digital mediums are wel...

Rush 212-232 Response

Interactive art is something that I find very unique, because it is something that has only emerged as a medium very recently. Other new mediums like digital illustration, 3D modeling, or even film, are based on another medium from the past, painting, sculpting, or acting. Interactive art also goes hand in hand with performance based art, in that both are usually experienced through first hand involvement, rather than viewing a product once it’s complete, like a painting or sculpture. Interactive art allows users to experience the art on a very personal level, and in a way, create their own experience based on the way they choose to interact with the piece. One of the works that I found really interesting was Fantastic Prayers, in which users can click to reveal a seemingly endless collection of media. I found that this work was basically a representation of the internet itself, in which people might find themselves on a completely different sight than they had originally intended....
