Diffusion

When planning our homework, our final stage was what we should use as an "object".  At this point, we decided to shape the project by reflecting our own tastes using 3 different objects. For me, we can make things better rather than hiding what we think we lack. From this point of view, we sometimes disappear in our thoughts about our life. We have trouble deciding. When there is more than one option, we are confused and cannot detect the correct point. So, I'm thinking of using the concept of "Diffusion" which is my COMD 101 project. I want to do it using flowers. Because I have more than one petal, I want it to refer to thoughts. Each event has an exit point. The part of the yellow in the middle of it is the point of our thoughts. I'm thinking of reflecting this by choosing a flower with the same tone as the colors we will put in the glasses. In addition, I think we can get an even more complicated image by putting a big mirror under our ...

Optical Illusion

We continue to do research for our final project. At this point, we decided to take advantage of "optical illusion". In my opinion, creating a whole from different pictures will be more creative. Because, as I've said many times before, I have an obsession with "eye". Our eyes are wonderful organs. A wonderful mechanism that can combine colors, movements, and parts in a spectacular way. I really want to reflect this on our project. Using Optical Illusion, we can reach a large picture with the method of going from special to whole. What I'm interested in is to get a body again, disrupting the integrity of the body parts. For example, when the legs or ears are shifted, the perception of how our perception will change when the image is completely distorted. In research I made, he explained why people were afraid of monsters and the appearance of superhuman beings:, When we encounter images other than familiar with our eyes, our brain gives a f...

“Burtonesk”

I have met with  Tim Burton through one of my favorite movie, "Corpse Bride" taken with stop-motion technique.  However, my favorite "Charlie's Chocolate Factory" from the other movie of this man is a truly excellent (subjective) interpretation of his story and his cinematic perception.  I can see his style and especially the music he chooses ( Danny Elfman ) , the themes work in complete harmony. That's why I really like this guy's style. The color scans he chooses can be called "dark" colors by simplifying them, but I think the man has a palette of his own which is particularly useful in most of his movies. That's enough to make him unique. He has a unique style in his films. We talked about the class discussion. The drawings and characters he created in the Gothic and Puppet style are complete "Tim Burton" style. More distorted colors create different camera angles that distort our perc...

Digital Installation

-
Image
We are in the process of finding ideas for our final project. This time we are asked to do a setup with a digital aspect that is different from the ones we did last time. In fact, I would like to do this kind of digital collage project because I like digital collage style. Of course, we have to consider this by adhering to the resources we have. For example, we can create a story on such human figures, standing in front of the projection, reflecting our own image. To my opinion; I think we can place two projections at the top and bottom. After separating the horizontal or vertical line on a wall, a person's eyes and nose; the other person can try something funny by combining his mouth and his jaw. ( or like this, an animal face...) I also like the light shows made with these shapes. It looks very different and a technological ornament.

Experimental Video

-
Together with my group friends, we reviewed the videos we watched in the classroom. We tried to explain the feeling of embarrassment in a surreal way. I wanted to have more white colors as a cinematographer. Surreal thoughts are a bit of a dream world. When these feelings of embarrassment are experienced, we feel like our brains and face are burning. I found the video of the offensive on the blood drops from the internet to indicate this. The subject was ashamed of a woman's body. Another footage I found, the "sweating belly", represented the weight that was trying to lose. Actually, we tried to explain that the woman who always eats broccoli lives with a pizza dream. The "blooming blossom" footage represented the woman. This flower, when intervened externally, represented a person who had been shut down and embarrassed and shunned. We have shown videos of toilet and medicine boxes to "refer" to the women who are taking pills and vomiting. It was ac...

Sound Design

-
Image
The most important thing in movies is the sound and camera angle, which we talk about for weeks. But I think we've just come to the most important point. Sound. The element that best reflects the subject is indistinct music. A movie gives the desired feeling if it is romantic if it is reflected in slow music. We learned the elements of sound design. In this week's assignment, we choose a silent movie and add sound to the appropriate scenes of that movie. I don't like to watch silent movies. I find it difficult to understand the issues and I want to choose a romantic film for this week's homework. Films in the category of horror or tension are not my style. I haven't decided to do it yet, but I'm thinking of doing one of the Sunrise: A Song of Two Humans (1927) or Coeur Fidèle (1923, Jean Epstein). I'm gonna change their story in both of them. Foley, music, dialogue, voice over. I don't know how it will be because I don't have a studio room or...

Trailer- Midterm

-
Image
I've been trying to make a 2-minute trailer by shortening a 2-hour movie all week. I had no experience with video before. I didn't do things like adding sound or adding scenes. It was a nice and fun experience.   My movie is Oliver Twist (1948). Originally, it is an adventure movie. It has musicals, movies taken in different years, and a few cartoons. I watched the movie several times. It made my job easier to choose the scenes. I've made this movie as a romantic but a little dark. In the film's original "the orphan child" in the foreground, but in my version "the women" in the foreground. I think the scenes in the trailer should not be more independent than each other. We need to figure out what's going on. So I tried not to disturb the principle of "continuity" and try not to distort the film in terms of camera and light. About music, I chose a piece of music based on 1940-50's jazz and a little piano. I though...
