So this week we started by giving each other a word and most of us used the word we were given as a focus on the thins we created, for example Caitlin was given the word 'Ender' taken from the film Ender's game, she focused her creations on her word by making a picture of space and putting her name into the middle of it. Another example, my word was '5SOS' also known as 5 seconds of summer, this for those of you who don't know is an new band from Australia, with this being my word i decided to create a video using some lyrics from their new single 'She Looks So Perfect' also did another one using re creating some of their logos/symbols.
We created our names using various objects around the room and Louis and Charlotte spelled out words using their bodies when we went outside.
We also created various videos, for example we did one outside where Mckenzie lifted a dog in the air to re create the beginning scene of 'The Lion King', also while we were outside we did some videos on a mother duck and he four ducklings and we followed each other round and did various videos and pictures of the thing that surrounded us for example the trees and the sign posts, seems weird but it will make sense when the video is put togehter.
All that happened on the first day, we still had ideas pouring out ready for the next day, so the second day, this was the day we got to play around with the camera and film things using the various settings.
The creativity didn't Sarah started writing lyrics to two of her favorite songs and filled a whole clear sheet. I stuck to my word and wrote out some lyrics from each song on the 'She Looks So Perfect EP' on a clear sheet, I also did a painting of a sun rise, i used blue, pink, yellow and red to create it, i haven't used it yet but it was calming and relaxing and helped clear my mind ready for other ideas to flow in, for example i did a video of me using stamps for to spell out the name of each member of '5SOS' i did this by pausing the film while i put did each letter.
Caitlin did some more paintings, Sarah did some drawings and Mckenzie did was doing some VJing.
The second day doesn't seem as productive as the first day but this is because the activities we chose took us longer to do than the ones we did on the first day. Every one who has participated has had a great time so far.
