My Triptech


When creating the triptech, I wanted to step outside the obvious and create a piece that blurred elements of reality and video footage, where the finished product looks futuristic.
I am pleased with the overall outcome as I feel that the contrast between the pace of the 'outside world' and the world within the screen works well and makes for an effective piece. If given the chance to do the exercise again, I would make the videos within the screen relate more to the primary figure and show clips of him rather than random clips with little correlation.

Because of time contraints we were forced to leave some ideas behind. At first I wanted the final piece to look as if the subject was watching himself in the screen but then realised this would take longer than the time assigned for the task. Another problem we encountered post-production was the presence of sound in the final video which was not intentional, but some videos that were repeated contained sound clips which also repeated themselves due to not having headphones when making the video in uni.

When showing the final piece to the tutors they were impressed with the alternative approach taken to the brief which steps outside the usual 'three screens in a row' technique. We also discussed how it might be a good idea to develop our approach further in our individual artefact assesment.
