2018-11-22/2018-11-23testing

After getting the new brief I started to play around with my idea.
I not only want to do the body movement but also want to play with the colour(paint on the body)
My use of body movements(testing)is focused on the body part, for instance shacking legs and hands/craping myself etc. In terms of that, I started to experiment to work with the painting and fabric.
Dancing with the fabric/using my legs shaking to destroy painting(made from ink )and make it into the new artwork.
I think its work very well, I found out that I can collect lots of short films and make it into a series( after all, I’m glad that I didn’t decide it to be my final work or it will be so boring)
With the dancing part, I had tried to edit it with the music(with the bits), it’s not creative but I just want to show that it will work better if the music is fit to the body movement.
In conclusion, I haven't started to think how it can work with the styling (clothes), but I still want to test see that I might get inspiration although I have none idea in my mind.

listening to suggestions from the tutors and other students help me to earn recognition from myself, so I decided to explore from ideas that I did for testing. Three of my testing isn’t connecting together so I have to choose one to develop it rather them mix all of them together(it will obscure my concept)
During the Movement Session, I don’t think it helps a lot. I can’t really explore things from the class while I still learn how I can produce the body movement and direction.
After the class, I found out it will be better if the camera following the body movement rather then just set in the same place, it will be more dynamic.

I did the research from ”Gareth Pugh SS18 - Nick Knight”， I was surprised how a film can be so surreal and fabulous and horrible at the same time. In the front part of the film is so horrible, two men using clay to cover the face and the body, using only black and red to paint yees and the about mouth. In front of the film isn’t connected to the fashion communication, while at the end of the film it still shows about the clothing.
I start to think about”what is fashion communication?” “fashion communication have to be commercial?’, I think this is an art film but it work even better then the commercial film, I can feel terror/sadness/angry/story from the film.
I would like to try something Nick Knigh did, trying something that I didn’t do before.

2018-11-29Editing, sound and use of typography
Today I did the storyboarding of the film, I’m not only using imaged but also wrote the words to describe it. (so that I won’t forget what I drew)
I found out its useful to using white tack but not glue to stick my storyboarding on the sketchbook. I can change or add the idea easily in my storyboard, I don’t need to do as same as the original idea.
I would like too dramatic my story, so I arrange the story to be plot twist; from peaceful to horror.
I found out its necessary to have the storyboarding before the filming. It does not only arrange the time for the shooting but also reminds me what should I do for the filming.

2018-11-30shooting day.
At first, I can do all the things by myself (filming /makeup/setting/modelling)but I’m wrong. I found out although can do it but it wasting too much time for it.
Because of change the shooting place(someone was filming in the same place)so the fabric isn't long enough, I spent 30-60 mins to figure out how I can do with the fabric and the shooting place, thanks for no one in the 3D room, so I could use the corner in that room.
I have to keep running around to check the light after the filming, sometime I will be out of the screen. I spent too much time checking and I have no time to film in the other day so I just call Han for help in the end part of the film.
I’m glad that I ask him for help so that the body movement could be dynamic, he move the camera to follow the body movement and the acrylic that I spit out, it makes the film more creepy and disgusting.
The reason why I just want to film myself is that of the concept” stressed”, all the characters are myself can be fit my idea, I think it will be more easy for the audience to understand what the purpose want to convey.
