Beverly Estrada: Projection 1 Background mapping

 

Concept:

              For this project I decided to keep it simple by focusing on 3 colors based on the building in the photo.

Technique:

              For this composition I used 4 different quads for each scene. I grouped every 4 quads to make it easier to know which belonged to what scene. Some quads have the same pattern, but I did have to change the speed, color and the direction it went. I did use about 4 to 5 masks in each scene and used the same mask tool for everything. I should have messed with the other mask tools because the poles were a bit hard to get the right shape. So, each scene is 30 seconds with a fade duration of 2 seconds. The first fade is an ease in, the second is linear, and the last one is an ease out.

Interpretation:

              The first scene just focuses on the white lines moving through out the building. The top lines move to the right while the bottom right is moving left. So, the bottom left quad is supposed to be where the lines are ending causing the strob effect. Which will eventually become the shape effects. The idea is that the strob will become squares, so in the next scene it becomes clearer. At the top, the line starts to become thicker and turn in to the color red. That leads the next two quads to be scatter red squares. In the last scene, the bottom left quad is the only one with red squares because it transitions from white squares. Then a new shape is introduced which is the sphere and there is a red and white.
