Project Three
Stills and Movement
For this project we were asked to look into still images and putting them into a video as a sequence, narrative or other. When using more than one image in a sequence, it becomes a narrative. It can be traditional story telling or and abstract approach.

JAMES COLEMAN

| Seeing for Oneself (1987-8), film still |
Artist Bio:-
James Coleman is an Irish installation and video artist associated with slide-tape works: sequences of still images fading one into the other with synchronized sound. Often, social situations are depicted with a precision which, paradoxically, creates a narrative ambiguity.
AN INSTAGRAM SHORT FILM
Whilst doing some research, I came across this video by someone called Thomas Jullien that I found interesting. Instagram is a Photo sharing social networking app. Its an incredible source for all kinds of pictures. He states that he wanted to create structure out of chaos. The result is s crowd source short-film that shows the endless possibilities of social media. The video consists of 852 different images, from 852 different Instagram users. I love the idea and the concept behind this video.
MY WORK
I decided to use the sequence images I had from my previous project as I had a total of 96 frames which I thought was enough. Firstly I thought I would create an GIF image to show the narrative of my images rather than a video. I did this because I find it a much more simpler way of showing my images as they are, without any edits or transitions at the moment. I will continue to work on these images and eventually create a video from them.
