Zoetropes, what are they?

By Joyce Wong

My hope for my final work in this studio is to achieve the goal of educating the audience in an engaging way, using relevant material and unique film techniques. Students are often in the realm of online education especially in this time, so it is crucial for educational videos to be engaging in a creative way so that the audience can retain information. If information was placed in front of an audience with no creative effects, the audience may not have the attention to digest the information; in fact, may have the opposite effect of leading the audience to be disinterested in what they are learning. There are extensive studies with results showing that the most effect way for a person to learn is to have the information presented to them visually and aurally. My intention in my final work is to push the boundaries in these two aspects; to give engaging visuals and an appropriate amount of aural information so that the product would be most effective in educating the audience on the topic.
