Soap Ad Self Critique

Throughout the production of this project, I have been working on ways to figure out the Affect Effects software. In the beginning, everything seemed so confusing but now I've grasp it a little more. I'm still in the process of remembering certain factors regarding the program, but I feel confindent that my productions from this point on, will improve. My soap advertisement is OK, in my opinion. I tried to incorporate everything we have learned in this past month and i just stuck with the basics. Overall, Im satisfied.

Research Topics

Existence/Extinction

I thought about experimenting with the idea of existence. Questions regarding: How existence came about? and Why we as human beings exist? I want explore the general meaning of existence; an understanding living things. Existence is not only a way of living, but also the presence or occurrence of something in a particular place or situation.

The Human Condition

The human condition can be approached in several ways. I thought about discovering the stages and developments in life, humans encounter. Issues concerning our anatomy, metaphysical state of being, sexuality, habitats, cultures, etc.

GREEN

I brainstormed about everything green. US currency, nature, traffic light=go, Marvel Comics “HULK”, Aliens, Camouflage, Dragons, Military forces, etc. Maybe creating abstracts production about how green is observed and its significance.

Sticking with the green idea....I've decided to explore the galaxy and aliens. Their worldview of earth and the way indivduals on each continent interact with their environment. I will create short animations placing them in certain aspects of our culture. Dealing with political and social issue, entertainment, crime, etc. Although this will be a challenge, I'm quite positive i can pull it off. I intend on making these animations comical and each will have a centalized theme or lesson towards the end, almost like a mini series. In some cases, audio will be present.
