Brief 1A

Semester 1, Brief 1, Video, Group Project

“Get to know your community group and, together as a team, produce a 3 min video about something you collectively have in common. ” - Taken from Brief 1A

As this is a group brief, we decided it was best to begin the brief writing down our likes and interests that are specific to certain topics. We created a Miro board, and each made a short list of our interests to do with certain topic like favourite movies etc. The Miro board can be found HERE.

Collating Ideas

After doing our intial brainstorming we pooled some ideas together, we narrowed it down to two potential ideas. We presented these ideas to each other and gave feedback and thought on each idea to then choose the best idea.

Idea 1 We all film us doing an activity (Making tea / playing game/ going for walk) and then each frame is drawn to make it unique and look like its all one persons day.

Idea 2 Recording sleep data and presenting it in a way that isn’t boring (very rough outline)

Feedback

I like that idea but it’d be very complicated and we only have 2 weeks, plus we’d have to do that for 3 minutes straight which would be a pain

as theres 4 of us now we all need 45 seconds of video each

that could work, we could do a thing about making tea, that’s pretty relatable

Could edit it in a way that makes it look trippy

That would be sick, if we go with this idea then well need to look up influences and stuff like that, just research

Yeh, Could do a bit of research into why people tend to stay up later? effects on mental health / generical health etc

A way we could edit it for research like in Spiderman: into the spiderverse when it goes all trippy

I like this idea and seems like it already has the most thought already put into it.

Chosen Idea

We chose was idea 2. We will each choose an activity (Like playing video games/drawing etc). We will then record ourselves for 30 minuets - which will then be sped up to last 3 minuets.
The thought behind this idea is that it seems that we all have bad sleep schedules - some more than others. So, we decided to show what we do during the time we should be sleeping.

Experiments

Colour Overlay For some research we looked into how colour influences sleep.
Warm colours = Worse sleep
Cold colours = Better sleep
To show this we each person had a colour and that colour was overlayed over each part they was in.

Pics

Wavy Colours We thought that this may have been a harder topic to make interesting so we researched into the effects of not sleeping, after a few days of no sleep people tend to halucinate - we used this as inspiration to create a clip of waving colours to use as a background for the video.
