IMAGE PROCESSING: New Ways of Seeing

Your assignment is to produce three image-processing explorations. These explorations are due on Oct. 3^rd (20 points). You are to explore layering filters upon the moving image and taking notes of their visual vocabularies and relationships they hold with your footage. Post your three explorations on the blog (Via Vimeo) before class on the 3^rd (all in one video please), you are to pick your favorite from the three and extend it into a larger video piece (2-3min).

This is the start of Assignment 2 (100 Points): Extend one of your favorite image processing techniques you discovered into a finished video (2-3min.) piece DUE Oct. 10^th. To go along with these explorations and the finished piece or pieces is an artist statement, sketches, and notes. These are required to accompany the final piece(s). It is required to record within the notes the filters that you used, and the stacking order of them for each image or video (I will accept screen shots of filters). Observe how the filter changes the image. Does it allow you to see the image in a new way? How does the process or filter conceptually balance with the images you process? It is extremely important to find that balance. Make sure you think of a thought provoking title. Work submitted without any of the above criteria will be docked one letter grade on the assignment. You will have in class time to work on this Sept. 28^th & Oct. 5^th. In this time you need to be showing me your work in progress. Those who fail to show me work in progress and discuss with me their ideas be docked one letter grade. All material must be posted to the blog before class on the 10^th & a full-res AVI. file must be turned in that day. We will critique on the 10^th and part of the 12^th if needed.
