In this weeks lecture we went over a various assortments of camera techniques. We did this by using track view, now being new to track view it was slightly difficultly for me to comprehend and get a hold of but I managed to overcome it. I found it fascinating how it was able to create various scenes using altering or repetitive camera techniques such as close ups and panning. However due to my inexperience with the program I am afraid i will not be able to utilize it to its fullest.

Week 6 - Reflection

Week 5 - Sublime + Reflection

In this exercise we had too conceal our letter and number within out project I did the following ideas using the letter "D" and the number "3"

Number 3

Letter D

Both

Reflection

In this weeks lecture different techniques were to taught to reveal our designated numbers within our projects. This was done by utilizing subliminal messaging where our number and letter is revealed in a certain way that isn't necessarily obvious. I did this through various different ways however the most subliminal method I believed I used was using groups of 3 of certain objects to push the message of the number 3 through repetition, this was done with houses, boats and even trees.

Week 4 - Image from today's lecture + Sky box + Reflection

After

Reflection

The reflection this week was aimed to inform us of different environmental factors which can be used within the project. I took interest in the ability to change the sky and the time of day as the difference between overcast and sunny with no clouds in conjunction with the difference from midnight to midday can drastically change the complete overlook of the project for better or for worse.

Week 3 - Lecture

In this week’s lecture we navigated through various ideas revolving around picturesque exploring fundamental ideas which were raised such as symmetry. This was done by establishing the concept between planned vs nature, this was seen by artists as they combated the romantic notion that the nature in the environment should be perceived as “nature as it should be”. This was interesting because rather create something majestic and beautiful the artists made a random more realistic stand on landscapes in reality rather than it being completely symmetrical. The picturesque of the Liu garden was personally really interesting to me because the landscape works around the much aquatic based environments where water holds spiritual qualities.
