Finally transcribing to the Blog!

So tonight I am working on transcribing the entries from my journal to get all my posts actually typed out online! And I just finished!

Project 4: CyberArt Exhibit

Today we had the exhibit for our final CyberArt project in the Digital Art and Animation Studio.


We arrived around an hour early since we already had all of our set and costumes stored upstairs where the show was going to be. We had arranged to get the other items we would need for the show; a projector from Simone, Dan would bring his speakers, and we the computer to play the video on as well as extras just in case. The same video (QuickTime format) that had previously played fine in QuickTime on a Mac, wasn't playing correctly in QuickTime on a PC. Luckily we also had VLC Media Player installed which played it fine though we did get a small last minute scare. We got the exhibit set up and people seemed to enjoy it for the most part. We had added an odd ending to the video just for fun, none of us really thought it was the proper artistic thing, but it was a fun expression of our work we had done together and the relief we felt after investing significant amounts of time on the project.





I think we ended up doing a project where we all had a lot of fun making it. I don't think it's a great work of art, but I am proud of the work we did and what we learned from doing that work. I think we certainly could have ended up with something better, but this was all very experimental for all of us. Great job Team Memento of Oz!

Here is the video we presented...
