Broadway Show Thoughts

After looking through Angel's blog, I saw some interesting broadway shows that I didn't know existed. For example, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. The broadway version seems interesting and the props and technology used look very thought-out and complicated. I also liked the excerpt of Don't Rain On My Parade because I'm familiar with that song, so it was interesting to see a different performance of it. I also liked the performance from the new Mary Poppins, it reminded me of the original one but with a more modern take, and I think the new actress did a good job maintaining the same character of Mary Poppins.

There are definitely a lot of broadway shows on the blog that I didn't recognize, as I don't know much about broadway in general, but the ones I watched were all very interesting and I would definitely like to see more broadway shows in general, the only one I've seen being Jersey Boys (of which I didn't see any clips from on the blog.)

Video Art

View here:  https://youtu.be/EHUY03vcvs4 Artist Statement: When trying to decide how to approach this project, I began by thinking of how I could incorporate technology both into the theme and the production of the video. I ended up using the Photo Booth application on my Mac to record a video using the heat map effect. I experimented with how the effect worked by moving different distances from the camera and moving my hand over the camera, causing a flickering effect where the heatmap colors changed temporarily. I utilized technology by recording myself using various devices- my phone, laptop, and game console. The way that the heatmap responded to the screens of the devices was interesting. To edit the video, I used Final Cut Pro to import each clip, trim them, and use various effects. I used different opacities to overlay clips onto each other, in order to achieve a more complex image. I also added overlay trails, kaleidoscopes, mirror images, and duplication. These eff...

Flipbook

My goal with this flipbook was primarily to create a story that has some cohesive elements but is still abstract. The included various different 'scenes' like a guy getting rained on, finding an umbrella, and then abandoning the umbrella only for a frog to fall on it. The frog then catches a fly with its tongue and transforms into Pikachu from the Pokemon series. Pikachu gets captured by a Pokeball, which is then abducted by an alien spaceship. The ship turns pink and morphs into a heart, which undergoes a series of transformations.

Xerox Project

I attempted to create a piece of art primarily using curly hair texture and hand prints. The hand prints gradually change from hovering over the scanner to fully pressing against it, creating a gradation. The curly hair was intended to look like waves or flowers that the hand is gradually reaching towards.
