This weeks lectorial I didn’t find too beneficial. Maybe, as time goes on, I will find that what was taught in the library session will come in handy but, mostly, I was disappointed that the lecture wasn’t more media orientated. I found that the prospect of Project Brief 3 was creating a distraction for me and I wasn’t fully aware of or fully concentrating on what was being taught. What was being said was just flying straight over my head as I thought and planned how to use my time wisely in creating PB3. 

So here is my plan for the project brief: I am using my sister as the subject of the portrait because she’s an artist and her opinions on modern art are interesting especially because most of her life revolves around exploring, researching and creating art. I want to completely capture her passion for art and her opinions on ‘A World Without Art’. I want to ask her thought provoking questions in which she can answer openly and passionately. I also want to capture what art means to her specifically and how she explores and is inspired by art to create what she creates.

This is, however, the audio component to the portrait. I want to  compliment this with visuals of my sister in her space of work – the place where I know she allows her imagination run wild. Essentially her bedroom. I want to capture the paint, paint brushes, sculptures, pictures, paintings and books that she has in her room.

In terms of found footage, I’ve already found what I need. It was very easy to find footage of artists and art to compliment the original footage that I will capture myself.

What I’m having trouble with is finding music to play over this. We’ll see how this goes, I guess. I’m giving up on this front a bit.
