1/28/2010 - Notes

14 comments:

  1. Today - Critique of Edit on 12 Frames assignments.

    Rather than post my notes on individuals, Ill summarize a little bit.

    Overall: Class had issues with the assignment.
    -Work was good, but not what it should have been
    -Several people misunderstood the "Music" properties

    -Assignments were largely linear, less experimentation that was expected...

    For Tuesday, 2/2
    -Have work in progress for Sound Poem uploaded to iDisk by 8am.

  2. Lecture Notes 1/28/10

    There are going to be in progress reviews from now on.
    BMX hunter video
    Don’t just throw in music to change the mood
    Don’t need to be linear, experiment
    **Play with it, helps it increase vision

    Projects-

    Jade- would have been like a music video, lots of walking
    Zach- a little lacking of action
    Kristy- worked well with sound, no conclusion
    Mondor- Very linear, good eating cereal shot, nice camera angles
    Hicks- good story line, funny/entertaining, good use of sound
    Sam- no real ending
    Doherty- Narrative was copying past projects, almost non-linear
    Rob- Breaks up time line, but only once
    Matt- looks good, hard to understand the storyline, good use of non linear, nice layering effect
    Aaron- should have been shorter, nice use of sounds
    Mine- too long, small breaks in linear sequence
    Dylan- audio problem, good length, also making eggs
    Jeff- too long, would have liked to see more of playing drums
    Ethan- too long, I didn’t like the use of effects
    Jeremy- really good storyline, like the use of news footage, liked the music
    Glenn- Over 12 frames

    HW

    Due Tuesday at 8am on iDisk, work in progress for A3 the sound poem, Piece is due Thursday

  4. NMD 304 Notes 1/28/10

    How far can we stretch the temporal range?

    Need to experiment with all assignments

    Can break the laws of time

    Mine: music was a distraction, made it too much of a music video

    Next Tuesday, work-in-progress for A3

  6. Looked at A2 Projects-- Don't slack on assignments.

    * will now be having in-class progress reports- make sure to start on projects as soon as they are assigned.

    consider how far you can stretch temporality...

    Mine- sucked, boring, too linear, music video (even though the music did not go with the video whatsoever!)
    Zack- too linear like mine, used music too.
    Kristy- Sound was good, but ended abruptly.
    John M.- Linear, but more interesting then mine.
    John H.- Good narrative, sound was good.
    Sam- not finished, but temporality was good.
    Rebekah- On the verge of temporality, same narrative as past projects.
    Rob- had sound too, only temporality shown once.
    Matt- most successful thus far, layering, and non linear was effective.
    Aaron- too long, background music worked well.
    Sean- too long, good non linear shots.
    Dylan- had good effects, a little too long.
    Jeff- anticipation was good, but later realize the drums aren't actually played. Repetitively used shots well.
    Ethan- long, the effects were weird and didn't really understand why they were there.
    Jeremy- good narrative (my favorite) but the editing didn't seem to effective to me.
    Josh- didn't use 12 frame edit properly.

    Experiment-- the more you play with things the better.

    Don't be linear? Don't use music?

    Need Temporality!

    HW: Work in progress for A3 on iDisk by 8AM Tuesday morning.

  7. Check out more on the iPad
    possibilities?

    Do not make a music video. EVER.

    Not locked in beginning-end structure.
    don't worry about linearity.

    Boring. Uninspired.

    Mine: better cinematography, but still too linear.

    hicks-best yet.

    Ethan-Effects save the day.

    Jeremy-good job.good job.good job.good job.good job.good job.good job.good job.

    HW:
    Work in progress on iDisk by 8am Tuesday.
    Final work due Thursday.

  8. Check out the BMW - Hunter clip

    Look at the iPad

    Break up the temporal narrative more

    Stop making everything so linear with a start middle and end

    Break up your narrative

    Do not make music videos

  9. Experimentation is key!
    Distrubt the linear time frame!
    No music videos!

  10. Notes

    - Export so movies open in Quicktime not FCP
    - Experiment more on projects
    - Start assignments the day they are assigned
    - Just about everything is linear, mostly me though
    - Better way to use music is to break it up
    - Breaking what is expected makes t less linear
    - Tons of overlays, darkness, and effects are cool
    - Before class on tuesday (8:00am) post work in progress to Raphs iDisk
    - A3 Due next Thursday

  11. 1/28 Josh Smith

    Make sure to post on time! also, remember to export in quicktime using quicktime compression.

    on a side note- ipad is debated, students not excited about it much. but raphael argues its uses well.

    Most pieces had a lack of temporal distortion. Mine wasn't even editing in 12 frame segments.

    make sure to start on projects when given, and experiment. Break down send pieces and replay them. Then cut/paste/play with pieces until your satisfied.

    get clips from assignment 3 at the very least on raph's idisk under folder works in progress?

  12. -Ipad is somewhat featureless
    ^raph has secret superfriends

    -Lack of temporal variance in projects
    -Start projects immediatly
    -Play with assignments until satisfied

  14. Lats of talk about the not so great ipad

    I made a retarded comment about the camera


    Bad things about videos

    Too linear
    too linear
    too linear
    sound overlaid everything

    too much like music videos




    Too create a less linear piece jump back to things to reinforce them
