Collaboration - Fashion_film - Film_v1
A response to a five-day brief set in collaboration with the fashion department. We were introduced on Monday and set the deadline for the coming Friday. Our chosen narrative was how the fashion industry treats models as cloths horses to show their designs. We tried to give a view from the models thoughts of how she has thoughts and emotions.

Live - Sense - Ideas
I took this photo in a local park. The depth of field shown on the trees in the background is what I am looking for in the sense animations.

Brief – Animation – Animation_v4
Inserted the text from the written scrip, but I feel I may need to record the audio convocation in order to get the timing a little more realistic.

Brief - Animation – Animation_v3
Joined together the two motion files to see the results of work so far. I had to insert a camera in after-effects in order to try and match to different position of the video camera. I placed a flash as a distraction at the point where the animation switches from the stop frame to the live motion. My main concern at this stage is the difference in the colour between the two medias; which is why I’v made them both neutral black and white. It could be linked to black and white photography.

Brief – Animation – Logo test end tag
This is just a thought on how the end tag will enter the animation.
Live - Sense - Traffic_v2
The static effect to the start of the animation is only there as a marker.
The plan is still to use depth of field to create the required effect.
This animation is to test the different end tag.

Live - Sense - Initial ideas
Outline
When normally sighted people hear someone is blind, the first thought is usually – a person can’t see a thing and like in a world of pitch darkness. The same can be said when someone in announced as def, the first reaction is they cant hear a thing.
This is often not the case. Someone can be medically certified as blind, but still see light and dark shapes. Likewise a def person may still hear sounds even though they may be muted or muffled.
Animation style
The style of the animation is to shoot live footage in a cinema verite style of normal everyday situations most normally sighted people take for granted.
The first part of the animation would be blurred so that the shape and movement can be seen but only ad blocks of colour and the audio would be muffled and at lower volume.
The second half of the animation would be a repeat of the first half but this time the scene and audio would be clear showing the potential hazardous environments.
Set locations
• Crossing a road where the viewer looks right and left but failed to see or hear the oncoming car as it sounds its’ horn.
• A fire on a couch started by a cigarette. The viewer sees the dancing of the red. Yellow and orange shapes. The home fire alarm is sounded but is muffled and muted.
• Out shopping where the colours are vibrant and the audio is low pitch. In the snap back the viewer is on a busy market place being pushed about whilst the market tender continues about his sales pitch.

Brief – Zine - Questionnaire
I constructed a questionnaire and uploaded it a Public house website who kindly agreed to take part in this research and the form to be accessed by its visitors.
For a closely watched period over two weeks, a full 300 ml soap dispenser was placed in each male and female toilets ready the business opening on 11:00 on Monday morning. A vertical measurement was taken from the counter surface to the liquid level. Each day this was refilled to 110mm. Throughout the day on the hour these were checked for usage.
During the same two weeks period, a new standard toilet roll was placed in each male and female toilet. At the end of each day a record of the number used was recorded to the value of the closest ¼ roll.
The hours of 9 pm – 3 am Friday and Saturday were pre-established as the bars busy period. Between these hours on the hour a head count was taken of customers.
The questionnaire required visitor to answer the following questions:
1. Gender
2. Date
3. Time of arrival
4. Time of departure
5. Duration
6. Drinks consumed in each hour
7. Toilet visits: Time spent (mins) in each hour
