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.
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!
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...
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...
I was very impressed in this reading by the way some of the video/performance art predicts some of the high production performances we see today. For example Robert Whitman's Prune Flat , featuring performers interacting with filmed images, immediately brought into my mind some of the performances involving projections on shows like America's Got Talent where the performers sync their movements with the images on screen. It's incredible to think about how far we've come with regards to technology, yet the ideas have been around for years. For me this chapter examined the reduction of art to its simplest form. Just like minimalist painters in the 60's and 70's attempted to reduce their subjects to the simplest possible shapes and colors, the video and performance artists in this chapter reduced their works to the actual process of making the works. When I looked at and read about the pieces in this chapter, I have to admit, I found it hard to relate to or appr...
