Experimental Sound

So this is actually the second project I had in my documentary and experimental video class, but I wanted to make some changes to the first project before I posted it so here we go out of order. For this project, we had to find a segment of audio and then design an experimental video around it. I found a really great interview with Louis Armstrong to use and this is what I came up with. I think it turned out pretty cool.

Set Photos

This semester I am in producing, which means that I produced someone's film from the other half of our class that is in project. I produced a film called Dancing Diana, written and directed by Joshua Jordan. I was also 1st AD on a film called Antiques and 2nd AD on a film called Brains as well as production design/swing on a film called Bromeliads. I got all sorts of photos on the sets this semester, here are some of them!

Next semester I'll be on double the sets... I'm gonna die (but it's going to be a great death).

Doppelganger Costume

For costume design, we had to do a design of a doppelganger character. Essentially, we had to do two designs; a before and an after when they go through some sort of transformation. The main character in my upcoming junior project is a washed up magician, so I decided to do a before and after of him. I did a poster design for him when he was in his prime and then his actual costume design for the film. I plan on using the poster for production design in his dressing room.

No-Budget Horror

In costume design, we ended up spending a class period geared more towards the film majors! We set up horror scenes for posters for a visiting artist that does low-budget horror films, Alix Taylor. We used things that we had from the production design and costume department and created scenes based on that. It was really fun to do a horror photo shoot, here are some of the images I took:

Redesigning Rapunzel

...Hey there friends. So it's been about three months and the semester is over next week lol woops. I've been extremely busy this semester, but it's been a lot of fun! I'm have a few days off for break now so prepare to be bombarded with everything I've done this whole semester. The first project that I had for my costume design class was to redesign a fairy tale in a new style. I decided to do Rapunzel (the Grimm version) and make it Gothic Victorian. I did costume designs for three of the characters, Rapunzel, the Enchantress, and the Prince. Here are my preliminary sketches:

And my final result!

Overall, I really liked how these turned out! I was going to go back in and edit them, but I never had time- maybe in the future.
