What  would  I  like  to  achieve  in  this  project?    I  would  like  to  create  something  that  I  would  enjoy  viewing  —  something  that  is  universal  to  my  audience,  and  something  that  is  personal  to  me.      What  do  I  want  to  take  away  from  it?    I  seek  to  overcome  challenges  that  I  have  faced  in  the  past  which  have  dissuaded  me  from  the  habit  of  creating  on  the  daily.  Through  this  creative  project,  I  hope  to  recreate  the  habit  of  creating  once  again.      What  are  qualities,  concepts  and  parts  of  me  that  I  would  like  to  infuse  into  this  project?    Aesthetics  Soft,  flowing,  easy  on  the  eyes    

Qualities  Inspirational,  motivating,  uplifting    

Concepts    

       Adventure,  dreams,  everyday  life,  wanderlust    Parts  of  me

What  is  important  to  me?    • Observing  life  is  very  important  to  me.  

To  watch  the  world  come  and  go,  to  observe  a  passerby’s  mannerisms,  to  view  this  world  and  each  and  every  one  of  the  people  in  it  as  unique,  with  overflowing  capacities  to  offer  a  fresh  perspective.  

 • Thus,  I  value  the  everyday  life.  Though  

it  may  seem  mundane,  boring  and  routine-­‐like,  the  everyday  is  ultimately  what  is  most  familiar  to  us,  so  we  may  as  well  view  it  with  a  sense  of  gratitude  and  beauty.  The  everyday  is  beautiful,  as  long  as  we  take  the  time  to  notice  it  and  give  it  the  significance  it  deserves.  

   What  goal  would  I  like  to  achieve?    To  combine  my  strengths  along  with  the  skills  that  I  learn  and  hone  in  along  the  way.      What  challenges  me?    

• Time  management  • Video  aesthetics  and  skills  • Content  anxiety  

   Pick  three  to  five  words  that  describe  what  the  creative  process  means  to  you.    Simple,  engaging,  awesome

WEEK  5:  EMMA  RICKARDS  #1: Ideas from lectures

1

Emma  kicked  off  her  presentation  by  saying,  “Truly  innovative  works  involve  a  great  idea.  To  have  a  great  idea,  the  first  place  to  start  is  inspiration.”    • Emma  here  highlights  that  collecting  

inspiration  is  key  in  creating.  One  does  not  just  create  from  scratch;  the  human  consciousness  is  filled  with  bits  of  culture  from  the  things  we  see,  feel,  hear,  do  and  experience  from  our  day  to  day.  

 • Inspiration  is  therefore  a  personal  

journey  to  help  the  mind  in  identifying  what  one  loves,  enjoys  and  deems  most  important  to  them  —  three  elements  which  are  essential  in  the  thought  process  of  forming  an  idea  for  the  creative  project.  

     Case  Study:  Sanna  Annukka  +  Ree  Tweeker    

   • Sanna  Annukka  (an  illustrator)  looks  

for  inspiration  beyond  the  computer,  but  in  nature  and  into  her  childhood.  Similarly,  Ree  Tweeker  also  looked  into  his  childhood  —  reimagining  the  

2

imagined  reality  he  had  as  a  child:  the  monster  under  his  bathroom.  

 • As  Emma  shared  Annuka’s  and  

Tweeker’s  work,  it  occurred  to  me  that  we  are  probably  most  inspired  during  childhood,  without  the  limitations  of  the  hard  rules  and  guidelines  that  the  world  seem  to  place  more  and  more  on  us  as  we  grow  older.  

 • I  hope  to  seek  the  “inner  child”  in  me  

as  I  pave  my  way  through  this  creative  project.  Both  works  inspired  me  to  look  around  me  (nature,  the  city,  everyday  life)  and  within  me  (memories,  childhood)  in  seeking  inspiration  for  my  project.  

To have a great idea, the first place to start is inspiration.”

WILL  DARBYSHIRE  FILM  www.youtube.com/user/willdarbyshirefilm  

• London  vlogger  • Themes:  the  everyday,  life’s  big  questions  –  fate,  death,  memories  • What  I  love:  his  message,  beautifully  soft  filming  and  editing  aesthetics,  

intimate  settings    

Spotlight  article:  19.  My  City  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QmOYKSBj-­‐wk&list=UUeD3VwVu0HzIkPbLwl1D_VA  In  Will’s  most  recent  video,  he  vlogs  around  the  city  of  London,  his  hometown,  showing  his  viewers  three  of  his  favourite  spots.  Characteristic  of  the  laid-­‐back,  relaxed  style  of  his  videos,  Will  uses  clear,  no-­‐fuss  subtitles,  soft  instrumental  videos  and  slow,  intimate  perspectives  into  his  hometown…  a  classic  example  of  what  I  hope  to  achieve  in  my  creative  project.

HURDLE  TASK  #1

Very  artistic  use  of  stock  images  and  music  +  great  to  know  that  someone  else  shares  my  love  for  Will  Darbyshire  too!    

PARIS  SNAPSHOTS  /  SHARED  BY  MICHELLE    

TED-­‐ED  /  SHARED  BY  SEAN    

I  was  wary  of  TED,  but  actually  had  no  idea  about  TED-­‐Ed!  Another  example  of  how  one  can  have  fun  and  learn  so  much  online  at  the  same  time;  was  really  inspired  to  use  TED-­‐Ed  to  learn  after  Sean’s  presentation.  

As  a  lover  of  print,  I  found  this  really  interesting  –  Canva  seems  super  easy  to  use  and  very  customisable  too.  Best  of  all,  it’s  free!  Will  be  checking  this  out.    

CANVA  /  SHARED  BY  ALICE    

Really  cool  artifacts  were  shared  at  the  presentations!  The  few  that  stood  out  to  me  were…

THEMATIC  #2

Creativity…  it’s  such  a  broad  word.  When  I  think  about  it,  I  see  myriads  of  colours  and  shapes  and  everything  in  between.  It’s  hard  for  me  to  define  the  word  ‘creativity’  because  it  can  mean  so  many  things.  However,  the  1999  NACCCE  Report  provides  a  rather  clear  and  concise  definition.  According  to  them,  there  are  four  important  elements  to  creativity:  using  imagination,  pursuing  purposes,  being  original  and  judging  value.    Scoffham  addresses  mainly  to  educators  in  the  last  section  of  his  article  “How  can  we  promote  creativity?”,  but  I  believe  that  his  ideas  can  also  apply  to  the  creative  process  that  goes  into  my  own  project,  as  evident  below:    

• Encourage  play:  for  me,  this  means  spending  a  day  filming  content  with  no  real  purpose    

• Take  risks:  for  me,  this  means  don’t  be  afraid  to  do  something  different,  take  charge  of  your  creativity!    

• Foster  flexibility:  for  me  this  means  factor  in  flexibility  in  time  —  creativity  is  a  lengthy  process  

 • Balance  skills  and  challenges:  make  sure  to  make  use  of  my  strengths  (writing),  as  well  as  

expose  myself  to  my  weaknesses  (editing)  –  combine  them  to  create  something  awesome.    

• Exchange  ideas:  share  with  my  peers  +  friends  about  what  I’m  working  on,  and  see  what  they’re  working  on  too!  

   

ON  CREATIVITY…  

In  his  presentation  (found  in  Week  4’s  readings),  Gibson  emphasises  the  importance  of  collaboration  in  creating  creatively.    

• Encourage  play:  for  me,  this  means  spending  a  day  filming  content  with  no  real  purpose    

• Collaboration  is  viewed  as  a  synergy,  in  which  Gibson  provides  a  definition:  “the  interaction  of  two  or  more  agents  so  that  their  combined  effect  is  greater  than  the  sum  of  their  individual  effects.”  

 • He  shares  quotes  on  collaboration  +  sharing  from  the  world’s  greatest  thinkers:  Aristotle,  

Darwin,  Shaw  &  Bell.  My  favourite  is  from  Shaw:      

o “If  you  have  an  apple  and  I  have  an  apple  and  we  exchange  these  apples,  then  you  and  I  will  still  each  have  one  apple.  But  if  you  have  an  idea  and  I  have  an  idea  and  we  exchange  these  ideas,  then  each  of  us  will  have  two  ideas.”  How  true  that  is!  

 • Thus,  even  though  this  project  of  mine  is  an  individual  one,  it  doesn’t  mean  that  I  can’t  share  

my  creative  process  with  others  +  seek  their  feedback  to  add  more  colours  to  it.      

ON  COMMUNITY…

REFLECTIONS  

In  our  first  few  weeks,  Andrew  shared  the  medium  of  digital  storytelling  with  us.  I  found  this  medium  to  be  particular  fascinating;  although  it  was  relatively  simple  (with  picture  slides  accompanied  by  music/sounds),  it’s  also  about  designing  information  from  a  personal  angle  –  as  asserted  by  Davidson,  Hall  and  Porter  in  their  article  “The  Art  of  Digital  Storytelling”.    Storytelling  is  an  essential  part  of  our  lives;  in  fact,  it’s  something  that  we  do  on  the  everyday  –  whether  it’s  recounting  a  story  to  a  friend  over  a  tram  ride,  writing  a  letter  to  your  faraway  relative  and  so  on.  According  to  Porter,  there  are  six  elements  to  telling  a  good  story,  as  listed  below  with  ways  I’m  going  to  implement  them  in  my  own  project:    

• Live  inside  your  story:  I  should  be  part  of  my  story,  either  as  a  protagonist  or  an  observer.  Whatever  the  case  may  be,  I  should  be  knowledgable  about  it  so  that  my  audience  can  depart  the  story  with  an  enriched  understanding  too.  

 • Unfold  lessons  learned:  through  this  

reflective  journal  and  my  recount  of  the  processes  that  I  went  through  in  creating  the  project.  

 • Develop  creative  tension:  through  presenting  

interesting  ideas  in  unique,  unexpected  ways  developed  through  editing  e.g.  cutting  of  clips,  text  overlays,  music  choices  

 • Economise  the  story:  I  should  only  use  

content  that  will  add  to  my  story,  leaving  out  parts  that  is  unnecessary  –  these  decisions  will  be  made  in  the  editing  process.  

 • Show,  don’t  tell:  through  the  medium  of  

video    

• Develop  craftmanship:  Filming  and  editing  are  two  areas  in  which  I  hope  to  develop  craftsmanship  to  create  a  cohesive  video,  and  in  the  process  developing  my  own  style.

OUTLINE  FOR  DECISION-­‐MAKING  

#2

 

Aesthetics  Soft,  flowy  and  easy-­‐on-­‐the-­‐eyes  This  can  be  achieved  through  both  filming  and  editing:  

• Filming:  slow  moving  and  still  shots  as  opposed  to  fast-­‐cutting  shots,  use  of  high  aperture  lens,  filming  conditions  should  be  sunny,  but  not  too  bright  

 

• Editing:  slow  and  cohesive  transitions,  manipulation  of  colours  to  be  softer  instead  of  overly-­‐striking  

 

 

Concepts  the  everyday  life,  adventure,  wanderlust,  dreams  

• The  above  concepts  will  be  tied  in  mainly  through  a  combination  of  o my  clips  of  Melbourne  (everyday  life  +  adventure)  o text  overlays  and  voiceovers  

 

 

Qualities  simple,  engaging,  inspirational  

• The  merging  of  video  clips  should  be  smooth  and  intentional  to  maintain  a  sense  of  simplicity.  The  audience  should  know  exactly  what’s  going  on.  

 • To  keep  audience  engaged,  the  video  should  be  no  longer  than  three  

minutes.    

• The  inspiration  element  of  the  project  lies  behind  the  message  of  the  video:  “You  are  a  work-­‐in-­‐progress.  So  is  everyone  else.”  

 

 

Technical  • I’m  using  my  Canon  EOS  600D  because  it’s  a  camera  I’m  very  familiar  with,  

having  used  it  for  the  past  three  years.  Moreover,  it  films  in  high  definition,  so  the  end  product  of  the  clips  will  be  of  higher  quality  and  easier  to  edit.  

 • As  I’m  using  a  MacBook,  I  will  be  using  Apple  apps  in  the  editing  and  

rendering  of  my  video  and  sound  clips.  These  include  iMovie  and  Garageband.

KEY  MOMENTS  #3

Planning  and  decision-­‐making  

 

 

Shift  from  ‘You  Are  Your  Best  Friend’  to  ‘Five  Lessons  The  City  Taught  Me’      

Original  Idea  TITLE  OF  PROJECT:  You  Are  Your  Best  Friend  

 KEYWORDS:  the  everyday,  life,  social  media,  gratitude,  dreams  

 ABSTRACT:    In  a  world  permeated  by  social  media  and  the  constant  need  for  immediate  self-­‐gratification  and  connection,  the  video  hopes  to  encourage  the  viewer  to  slow  down  and  enjoy  life  as  it  is.  While  connection  with  others  is  undeniably  important  in  our  lives,  the  connection  we  have  with  ourselves  is  the  most  important  above  all  friendships  and  relationships.  

 MATERIALS:  Camera  EOS  600D,  iMovie,  Garageband,  Piano  

   

Revised  Idea  TITLE  OF  PROJECT:  Five  Lessons  The  City  Taught  Me    KEYWORDS:  the  everyday,  life,  wanderlust    ABSTRACT:  After  much  planning  and  decision-­‐making,  my  subject  matter  became  all  too  clear  to  me:  the  city.  Upon  beginning  my  studies  at  the  university,  I  have  had  more  opportunities  to  explore  Melbourne  in  the  past  few  months  than  I  would  have  in  the  last  decade  accummulatively.  Over  the  semester,  I  have  learned  that  the  city  is  a  library  filled  with  opportunities  to  learn,  discover  and  fulfilling  our  wanderlust  desires.  In  5  Lessons  The  City  Taught  Me,  I  have  narrowed  what  I’ve  learned,  discovered  and  explored  down  to  the  most  important  five,  hoping  to  leave  the  viewer  inspired  to  discover  their  inner  explorer.    MATERIALS:  Camera  EOS  600D,  iMovie,  Garageband    

   

WHAT  CHANGED?    

• Upon  revisiting  my  manifesto,  the  message  changed  from  “You  Are  Your  Best  Friend”  because  I  found  that  the  city  itself  was  a  much  more  universal  concept,  and  a  more  actionable  way  for  the  audience  to  find  themselves.    

   

WHAT  STAYED?    

• Motivationally-­‐driven  • Key  theme  of  everyday  life  is  still  deeply  embedded  • Interpellates  the  viewer  to  look  deeper  into  themselves  and  better  their  lives

   Weather    • Sunday  5/10:  Although  the  weather  was  great,  it  was  at  times  too  bright,  so  the  next  

time  I  plan  to  film,  I  need  to  make  sure  that  it’s  a  time  where  the  sun  is  not  fully  out,  so  the  content  filmed  is  not  too  bright  and  glaring.  Perhaps  in  the  early  hours  of  the  morning?  

 • Monday  13/10:  Content  film  is  not  too  bright  and  glaring,  but  unfortunately  it  was  a  

tad  too  windy,  so  some  filmed  content,  like  flowers,  are  shaky.  May  have  to  go  back  and  refilm  some  of  the  content.  

     

Technique  • Sunday  5/10:  The  quality  of  the  video  can  be  a  bit  fuzzy  when  taken  outdoors,  but  the  

end  result  actually  gives  off  quite  a  nice  nostalgic  effect  that  I  like.    • Sunday  5/10:  It’s  important  to  make  sure  that  the  camera  doesn’t  move  too  quickly  

when  capturing  moving  shots  —  the  camera  needs  to  be  able  to  register  the  movement.

At  the  conception  of  this  project,  my  aim  was  to  create  a  work  that  is  both  universal  to  my  audience  and  personal  to  me.    The  city,  as  a  subject  matter,  certainly  fulfills  this  aim.  Personally,  the  city  has  also  become  a  very  intimate  part  of  my  everyday  life  –  she  is  where  I  spend  most  of  my  time.  Moreover,  as  my  video  will  be  broadcasted  on  Vimeo,  an  online  video-­‐sharing  platform,  it  is  assumed  that  my  viewers  are  modern,  city-­‐dwelling  individuals  who  share  similar  everyday  experiences  of  the  city  as  me.  However,  as  the  city  is  so  engrained  into  our  everyday,  it’s  very  easy  to  simply  walk  through  her  streets  and  alleyways  without  truly  appreciating  her,  in  our  constant  busyness  in  getting  from  one  place  to  another.    Notice  how  I  refer  to  the  city  with  the  pronoun  ‘her’  here…  that’s  because,  to  me,  the  city  is  a  friend.  A  friend  who  you’d  sit  down  and  have  a  coffee  with,  a  friend  who’d  make  you  smile,  a  friend  who  accepts  you  just  the  way  you  are  and  lets  you  take  in  her  goodness-­‐filled  stories  without  asking  for  anything  back.  My  goal  in  5  Lessons  is  essentially  based  on  that:  to  help  my

audience  slow  down,  dig  deeper  into  their  surroundings,  and  view  the  city  as  an  open  space,  as  a  friend  who  they  can  explore  with.    In  order  to  achieve  that  aim,  it  was  important  for  me  to  recreate  the  feelings  of  euphoria  and  peace  that  I  feel  when  I  explore  my  city  and  infuse  them  into  the  overall  vibe  of  5  Lessons.  To  do  this,  the  editing  process  was  key.  I  curated  an  instrumental  stripped  from  an  originally  lyric-­‐based  song,  with  rhythms  and  beats  that  I  could  cue  in  clips  seamlessly.  Creating  cohesive  transitions  from  clip  to  clip,  as  well  as  the  timing  of  clip  to  music,  were  essential  to  achieve  the  overall  vibes  that  I  wanted  to  achieve:  uplifting,  hopeful  and  motivational.    I  am  incredibly  happy  to  say  that  I  have  achieved  what  I  set  out  to  do,  and  beyond,  with  5  Lessons  The  City  Taught  Me.  In  more  ways  than  one,  5  Lessons  is  a  love  letter  from  me  to  my  city,  and  from  my  city  to  you.
