The meeting with Lynn certainly helped to get to the bottom of some things and I think this came across.
The hardest thing for me, as I've stated before, was simply trying to articulate for myself and others why it is I want to investigate VFX as a topic.
To summarise my presentation:
- I find the use of VFX in TV and Film makes the experience that more believable to the audience
- James Cameron described it as "The seduction of reality"
- Stephen Prince talks about this in his book (subtitled the same name) - describing VFX as more integral to the core narrative of film than people may think
- To look at the extension of reality - expanding real life locations.
- Compositing into images/video objects and items.
- Historical dramas etc are good for reference in how they alter real locations into different time periods
- Final piece will probably take the form of an environmental piece.
To sum up the feedback given, Brian talked about the presentation and the different levels: how I talked through philosophically about the parts of making things more believable before going on to talk about the genre interests I like and adding to real life. To him, the key now was to think about what it is I might want to be saying and trying to communicate that/make people believe that.
Lynn described the idea of trying to iron out the pipeline while carrying out practise
