concept one<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Initial Idea – for my artwork I would like to have either an oil painting or a watercolour of an object (e.g. piano) framed as though it is within an art gallery. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This is only a small mock-up but is an idea that I think could be worked with. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We took an image of the piano in the dye house art gallery and put it into Photoshop. I then worked with the filters to try make it look like an oil painting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I think it needs a lot of work, and I would need to look at some different filters, but I think it is an idea which may have some potential. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

concept two<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This is another artwork idea I think would possibly work. I like the idea of having cherry blossom branches within the frame. I think out of both concepts so far, this one is what I am more likely to work with for the final piece. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Following the idea above, I did a quick sketch of what I wanted my artwork to look like. By no means am I an artist but I thought it would give a rough idea of the concept I want to be working with. Since I plan to keep the idea of cherry blossoms within my composition, I chose to incorporate this within my artwork. I also think it would be quite cool to change the Yamaha logo on the piano image to my name. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This is the artwork I think I am going to keep for the final piece. I like how it is kind of simplistic but also ties in both the names the composition, and the main instrument within the composition. I chose to put the image within a frame because I still wanted to work with my initial idea of the artwork looking like it is within an art gallery. Therefore, Paul took a photo of the brick wall in the classroom and uploaded it to photoshop, then added in the framed artwork.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Animation<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

To showcase my piece at the final performance, I decided to work with Paul to create an animation\/video. My initial ideas for this were to loop a video of someone walking underneath a cherry blossom tree, and then have petals falling down over the screen. However, after spending a lot of time searching we couldn’t find any footage suitable for this. Therefore, I decided to use a still image and have the cherry blossoms falling over that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For my research, I sent out a questionnaire to my peers. One of the questions was ‘How often does a music video\/animation determine how much you love\/hate a song?<\/strong>‘. Majority of the responses said that a music video\/animation never determines how much they love or hate a song, as they tend to stream most of their music through Spotify or similar services, and therefore rarely watch videos. I took these responses on board and chose not to spend as much time on an animation as I initially planned. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
