The images are about the feeling of how the city should feel. There should be brightness and dynamism. It a sense the city is like being stuck in a womb of confusion. LIke a form of exploring the unknown, there is no shape or boundary therefore unpredictable growth occurs so there are no rigid shapes. Another note about the image is about how exploring the unknown has something about escape. Where on the outside, wild growth appears and appears chaotic. On the inside, it is similar to having clarity and finding that the unknown is dynamic and effulgent.

Assignment 3 word

In the first 2 assignments, the ideas were about an abstract version of exploring the unknown. In the second assignment, it was about how these exploration of the unknown make a structure. In the third assignment, this is about how the two assignments go together to make a city. In particular, it is the aspect of exploring the unknown where there is friction, tension, lighting, darkness, light, and feeling unaware.
In the second assignment, the idea was about exploring the unknown makes the structure of the building. The structure resembled a structure similar to Tadao Ando’s works especially the Sendai mediatheque. It was wiry and had transulency, space, tension, friction, and the notion that humanity is a small aspect of the world like goldfish in a bowl.
As for the tools used, volume metric lights were a big success. The repetition and dark alley way lights help create a provocative image of exploration. It was lighting that help created the emotions without being too literal and needed explanation. In the second assignment, the tools used were depth of field shots, and path deform operations. The path deform created the lines and structure which help created the structure like building.

The brief of the second assignment

In the first assignment, the idea of fence was about exploring the unknown. In the second assignment, by using repetition, light, and translucency the formulated is about how friction and tension creates form.
There is concept about how spaces in architecture are not simply inherited from the start but are formed from the tension and friction within the space. It could be a dialogue between man and nature or light and dark. When there is a dialogue, there is a certain feeling about the space.

Got into some trouble.

In my vain attempt at trying to figure out and fix up my external hdd... I zipped a large file with everything I had and reformatted the computer. Then after the hdd was cleaned up... the zip file was corrupted and I lost all the data and movies for the assignment. I can't complete the work but i have the second assignment submitted at the loss of everything else.

The simple story boarding of my idea.

The falling

This is the next video from the original story board but it didn't make as much sense. So the following videos were narrative than ideas. These are suppose to be superimposed with other videos from Reselume. Yet the videos don't want to upload which puts my animation at risk.

MODIFIED Idea

The idea of the fence is not of being confined but about boundaries. In particular, it is the idea about exploration and the unknown. From being secure behind a wall to gaining new grounds.

Shiver me timbers... more stuff

yyyyARRGGG matey

Just an idea testing with lovely volume lights. :)

Armidale photo

I took this photo in Jakarta 4 years ago. It was at the beach but this is another emotion idea for boundary.

Random light test I wanted to do.This is the version 5 of my animation.

My photos

I took this photo when I was in Bali. Basically the fence doesn't have to be a fence but for me this photo expresses it. I am happy in my own world but anything outside needs extra attention.

Idea for the presentation

The main idea behind the fence is how I feel about life. Instead of making a literal fence, I am following the notion of fence from using its boundary context. Life behind the fence is similar being in safe territory. Anything outside the fence is dangerous and unknown.
