Experiment Test to make an Origami pop-up card

15/02/08

This is an experimentation I had done which I had not done before..
Firstly I want to remind you this is poor lighting and it wil not be used in a final piece.
I do have an updated version with animated text.

Second Artefact: Week 27 31/01/2008:

A video demonstration of making origami objects hence using visual and auditory methods with integrated background music.

I will explore paper folding and demonstrate how it is done. I will have some close shots taken of my hands in movement.
The background music I will choose will be complimentary to suit the visual content and to inspire a wide audience.
It will be useful to try different experiments with the camera audio to see what looks visually and sounds better.

First of all I took still shots of all papar folding. I then imported them in final cut pro and put different time frames on them to get a specal effect.

A Origami Demonstration

The first Artefact to be produced included a voice over using visual methods demonstrating Origami objects.

During the holidays I needed to explore the art of paper folding by reference to available literature and practice of sequencing skills.
Through rehearsals of repeatable paper folding, I had learnt a new skill and was ready to demonstrate on video.

I had made provision for an appropriate background setting to remove any visual distractions.

For the introduction of my video I was filmed in my back garden on a sunny day.
I was also filmed in my front room, but out of the two I had chosen to edit for the video was the back garden because it had a better appeal to it because it was bright and sunny and my front room was too gloomy and not enough light coming through.

Experimenting and using different techniques with my camera was better to establish the best angles and lighting. I tried to avoid any exposure and use the correct focus. Making any justification was better to do at the time of filming because for me that would save time.

The camera was positioned to take close shots of my hands in movement in conjunction with voiceover. It required intensive practice to ensure confident and competent delivery.
