An artistic revolution is heavily inspired by the era that surrounds it. Similarly, a son can be inspired by his father and his upbringing. Nature and nurture both play roles in these scenarios, and my piece explores the juxtaposition of them. It portrays two different art forms that have been historically reciprocal, through the lens […]

JAPONYA-statement
The aesthetic provided by After Effects was an interesting one. Thus far, there have been a very sharp transition between shots with only one opportunity in each. Now, there was potential for a blending of various elements into one. Seeing as how Tokyo and New York City are quite similar as commerce cities, the idea […]
Rolling World
An abstract concept of what our own world has by presenting it with a peculiar meaning. This piece represents a saturated day on the city and how we probably are not aware of everything that is surrounding us. The crowds, the train, the buildings, everything seems overwhelmed and if we combine that with everything that […]
The Journey – Walter
Going into project 3 I wanted to take videos and manipulate them. I envisioned telling a short story with the clips I had chosen. Before choosing a topic I wasn’t sure how to approach the project, and my ideas were dry. Once I went with the suggestion of sports I narrowed in down to Basketball, […]
Anthony Exhausted Project 3 Final Statement
Advertisements of the digital and print variety aim to entice and focus consumer’s attention away from the world’s harsh realities. War, in particular, is a constant that our society faces. Sadly becoming commonplace. Desperately focusing attention away from these events whilst shelter people from terror with marketing ploys that enforce the belief that ‘all is […]
Doors and Duplicates
Doing something with a unreal feel is easy to conceive but harder to realize. I went in with a clear concept of what I wanted to do, using duplicates to collage together a interesting video with a straight forward narrative. However, while filming I had a lot of shots going through doorways, this gave me […]
“Sometimes I Tumble in the Dryer”
This short video is divided into six short segments that document the sensory experience of travel in a busy metropolitan area. “Sometimes I Tumble in the Dryer” communicates overwhelming auditory and visual stimulation along with its slightly nauseating effects.
Digitalize Me
My concept for this project took inspiration from the video Electric Earth by Douglas Aitkin where he takes objects or animals and put them in a different environment to create a bizarre and new context or message. In this project I used After effects to make fun of how everything is digitalized today like textbooks, […]
“Immi-Go” Statement
By employing nationalist-centric cartoons with dramatizations of a new pretend phone application, “Immi-Go” pokes fun at the dangerous rhetoric of USA’s new president-elect.
Fantasy Commutes Statement
Every day we take our commutes on public transportation. It’s something we barely think about due to its monotony. I try to show our means of city travel through the lens of a day dreamer, with the destinations being somewhere we fantasize about. Fantasy Commutes will go anywhere you want, with no fixed track, route […]
