Friday 3/4/20 - Midpoint Evaluation

So far throughout the project I have found myself to be the most motivated compared to all the previous assignments. Much like the propaganda project this was because I have felt really passionate about the work I am doing. The project is focused around my interests whilst still retaining importance and meaning, such as being based around the themes of mental health and life issues whilst also being connected to one of my favourite musical albums.

Since the beginning of the project I have been coming up with and developing ideas to fit the overall theme of my project. Inspired by the propaganda project, I initially planned on continuing the base themes and ideas from the project but with changes I felt suited it. I have also research heavily into subjects related and even found more connections and influences through this.

My aspiration for the project was experimentation, I wanted to use skills I have learned during the course of the year and apply them to the final project. However, I also wanted to make use of skills that I am familiar with, such as photography, but instead push myself, experiment and develop these skills through the project. My idea being to do this through the medium of film. I would use my skills in photography to help plan my shots but despite this it would still be a field relatively new to me where I could learn. With limited practice of filming in the past I felt this was a good opportunity to go further and get more experience.
