Transformation

This is a little late, but I'm the new kid in class. What I hope to learn from this experience is just to have a better and more comprehensive knowledge of time-based media.

This was taken at the golf course where I work. You could say the sun is transforming night to day. I also hope this class transforms my career, because I don't want to cut grass much longer. I want to get a better understanding of the various forms of digital media beyond video. I've never done animation and I've only done web editing in passing. I've done video, but I have lots of room for improvement. Help me Ravi Jain.

This photo is taken of my basement. Although very dark and full of cobwebs, I spend a lot of time down there doing laundry, playing pool and hoping the spiders don't bother me while I'm on the treadmill. It is a very old house and the cellar has a lot of interesting textures, shapes and lighting.

What do I hope to get out of this class - I hope to learn more about video and implementing it in projects I do outside of classes. The majority of my experience is in web graphics so video and animation are definitely areas I need more exposure to.

Transformation

What I hope to get out of this class: I've never had formal training of any kind when it comes to digital media. I'm taking this course in order to connect the fundamental principles of digital media to the skills that I've already learned on my own. Also, I've always attacked creative pursuits independently; because of that, I lack confidence in my own creative ideas. Not that I can't handle criticism; its that I just don't my put my ideas out there. I feel the assignments in this course (the group assignment in particular) will help my creative confidence.

Transformation-Black&White

okay well so i did actually spend quite a bit of time choosing the image with the class in mind. it isn't the greatest as are most of my photos. you are all quite talented.
last snowfall, walking a mostly black dog. I like how it is begging for another frame to see the top half of the dog (goes by the name of momo). I guess here, the head was purposefully cut-off, not just out-of-frame.
Please note, I'm not a photographer by any stretch of the imagination. I want to be able to transform any and all of my static image creations (2D I guess) into moving things. wagging things. things into other things.
