There was a mobile phone advert that had different heads with a jack getting plugged in. This was one of our inspiration but instead of heads we used objects.
The other inspirations was an example we got shown of this woman movin around and doing different poses, but she is stilll while she moves. We like this idea of static movement so we decided to do that.

Single Shot (evaluation)
This has taken me awhile to actually write up because i dont own a pc or laptop.
First thing we did was think an idea that would work well, not be long after rememberance day we decided it would be good to use this. Coming with the idea of a man putting a rose on a grave with everything black and white with the rose being red.
We decided to go to the old newark (polish) war graves.
We set the camera as we did because we wanted the subject to walk on from negative space, to put the flower down on the grave so the audience will be shocked to the rose red.
Also with the graves being in a deep shot, it tells the audience that this one grave is important to a family as the other graves will be to others. It makes the audience then realize why we remember.
To have black and white with the colour we had to go on colour past, then click on the rose to get the same colour. This created a problem because you can see red on the subjects hand, this was to do with the low quality camera.
I believe this piece of work went well, it was nice, simple and effective. It has a good meaning and has something that most people can relate to, making this work show maturity.

Summary (Lev Manovich)
This is the first chapter in the book called ‘The Language Of New Media’ by author Lev Manovich.
This chapter basically listed what new media is, he starts this by saying in general what new media is, for example computer games, animation, internet etc. Then he says what new media would be in TV, shows shot in digital video and edited using digital editing workshops. He also mentions about feature films that are animations or digital compositions. Then he adds about general photographs, text and other such digital compositions that can be printed on paper.
Then he basically says that new media is anything that uses computer for distribution and exhibition. Then he adds about photographs that are on CD-Roms, electronic books and websites are also new media and anything done on analogue isn’t.
He then says how we are going through a new revaluation of computerization to produce, distribution and communication, saying that its allowed us to communications in storage, text, sound and all other medias that communicate with people.
He then gives us a brief history on computerization, how the first computers started off as calculators for governments or big companies. Then computers shifted to storage, photo, sound, movie making etc. This adding to what new media is.
This chapter is yet short but is a good introduction to the book, he writes his information formal and easy to understand. There’s not much in-depth description on this chapter, but other chapters that I flicked through give information more in-depth and in a easy way to understand.
As this chapter is only a starting point, he gets the point across in the way of basically saying this is new media, giving examples of his points that are very logical.

pixilation (write up)
First time we got together, we decided just to test how to do it and how fast we need to walk. This was an experiment just to try everything.
The next time we met was the footage you see on my perivous blog. This was enjoyable and we went in knowing what we was going to do and how to do it.
Editing was a solo thing, i basically added alittle effect (polorize), i added this effect because it gives it a graphic novel effect. I then added my own music.
Our aim was to have a short music video or advert style pixilation.
