Art Update

Recently, I was able to finish my first short movie and submit it to a few colleges as well. I had to learn to disconnect myself from the project in order to have the courage to let other people see it. This helped me to not become so attached to my work and to let in other peoples opinions and to not be hurt by them. By listening to these opinions, it has helped me in creating my next project, whether it be how shaky the camera was to the camera angles that were used.
Through these projects, I have also been able to discover different people in the film industry that I admire. These people are Wes Anderson and Robert Yeoman. Yeoman is the cinematographer in all of Anderson's live action films. I had always admired the quirkiness of Anderson's work. By studying him and Yeoman, I have been able to dive deeper into the reasoning for why they do what do and how they do it. I have been able to identify different recurring themes. Their work has inspired me to use some of their techniques in my own.

Project #1 Brief

The subject of my my art project is about not wanting to go outside my comfort zone. The medium that I chose is going to be film and its going to be more experimental and avant gardish. I wanted to convey this because having to tell someone this would be like going outside of my comfort zone. I don't like talking about personal things but this project gives me the opportunity to do this indirectly and through a medium that I enjoy.
