Atrocity Exhibition: Production Diary 23-29 April

Doomsday machine:

  • swift action sequence about chemicals, scientific procedures and vehicles assemblage
  • transition from car crashes into WW3 conspiracy
  • media: acrylic paint on film reel with digital editing
  • found out that acrylic paint sets on the film surface
  • The painted films are scanned using a negative scanner


learning points:

  • visually communication through montage editing
  • manipulate transition between frames (read a bit of analysis of Dziga Vertov's The Man with the Movie Camera)
  • criss crossing between shapes of the moving images.
  • effective pacing: straightforward shots > quicker; more detailed shots > longer

Process: painting on film

sexual fetish: stroking pelvis / operating a machinery

setting the scene for car chase scene

setting up the act for a car chase




(race)car chase

Launch: jumpcut transition to Tom's moon-landing scene



Audio & Exhibition Plan

Tom has created the audio for crit 2, and it is well received by the class. Ben complimented the audio for giving coherence to the animation and suggested that we should really think of how we are going to exhibit the animation as well. We had a thought about setting up a CRT TV set which will play the animation on loop in a secluded room.
