ADP Week2 time

Play&Time
Theme:For the theme of play and time, I create a creative 3D scene about natural and time away. 

Context:For the play and time, first in my mind is kaleidoscope, they are common toy for children and they are colorful and always make world in a loop. When we look into kaleidoscope, time suspended and world is funny and varied. SO I guess if world in a kaleidoscope, what would that look like? I choose painting of plants as mountain, painting of sea wave of painting(The great wave of Kanagawa) as lake. And I add a sun to expression time lapses.

Method:
1.Choose painting
2.Make these paintings into kaleidoscope video(Adobe Effect)
3.Create modelings (Blender)
4.Add kaleidoscope video as textures (Blender)
5.Rendering animation
6.Editing video(Premiere)

Reflection:
New try is most important meaning for me, add a video as texture for 3Dmodeling is a new try for me. Also, this is my first use Blender, through this project I learning a new software.In this assignment, the theme is time, in class, Matt gave us a lot of inspiration, for example, time loop, time pause, fast forward, rewind all belong to the category of playing with time, which gave me a lot of inspiration inspiration, but also for my sub-assignment to open up ideas, so that I am not so closed in their own thoughts, so this time can be said that the class gave me a lot of guidance and inspiration. So I started to think about what is always in the time loop, for example, the fairy tale Alice in Wonderland is actually a story of time loop, it is also a story I like very, very much, so my mind came up with a lot of film and television works and creative video words related to this story The most they use is the kaleidoscope element. So I just thought back to the kaleidoscope of children's toys, he is indeed very much in line with the case of the time cycle, because when you look at the kaleidoscope, the pattern inside is repetitive, and regular, and you can see in the kaleidoscope very much delicate, and good-looking colorful pieces. They make up different shapes and look great under the interplay of light and shadow, so that's why so many children love this toy and many adults have been studying kaleidoscopes as a toy, which I think is a very interesting invention, and I thank ADP for giving me the stimulus to learn more about kaleidoscopes so that I have the motivation to understand this thing. In addition to being a traditional toy for children, it has also been improved and reinvented by many artists to become a very meaningful vehicle, so in this case, I combined the kaleidoscope with my professional knowledge to create a 3D scene with kaleidoscope materials. The whole theme wants to express that the kaleidoscope keeps repeating the cycle, just like the sun rises in the east and sets in the west every day, the river and the clouds flow in this way every day, and the animals and humans also live the same life every day, but they all have different small events to add color to their lives, just like the kaleidoscope, although it keeps forming different shapes regularly, it is always colorful. But in this assignment, I also reflected that it is very difficult to complete a complete assignment and to convey your ideas to the audience just by imagining without logic. This way it is better to convey my most accurate ideas.In this assignment, I also found that for time or in our concept of dynamic theme, I can not use a flat form to show this a theme, such as illustration posters and so on I always need to make an animation or a game in or a creative video to interpret this theme. Otherwise, it will deviate from the theme, I don't know if this problem is only bothering me or bothering everyone, I think later, I will explore how to time or floating clouds, which has been in motion objects, to show them in a static a flat form.
