Final

Before the project, I was really unsure about what to do. I really liked the idea of a narrative, so I decided I wanted to end up doing some type of narrative. I looked at some videos on the Art21 website and read the short on Carmen a couple of times because I really enjoyed it. I tried to figure out why and it mostly the imagery of blindness and imagination. I decided to use that as inspiration for my narrative in waking up.

While making the project, I didn't want to make it too complicated. I took some photos of my usual journey on a normal morning looking around my house. I detailed my thought process during the walk and my process of waking up. I tried to show my consciousness through the hue's of the photos. I wanted to incorporate imagination into the narrative, so the last shot was my imagination of the scene I was looking at.

Now that I'm done with the project, I don't really feel like I used my big idea of imagination too much. The narrative only really builds up to a small act of imagination. I tried to detail my movement into clarity while waking up and walking downstairs. The ending scene is a changing point of the process. In my mind, I was mentally prepared and clear, seen by the cleanliness of the the floor. But I wasn't actually ready to start the day, that was just my imagination. I'm pretty happy with this aspect of the project and the connection I wanted to convey with the scenes. Overall, I'm pretty satisfied with my final.
