Week One - Group Formation

In the weeks before we conducted our module-wide group formation session, I was working off an individual blog on Wix. This blog detailed my gallery research that I conducted for my initial ideas of a multi-screen installation. In addition to this, it features my experiment of a multi-screened television installation piece as well as a link to my personal portfolio which contains almost all of my prior work. I added a link to my personal portfolio because it would give people the opportunity to view my past experiences and practices so they could further understand my creative output. I also created a statement of intent for an early idea that I had expanded from Carmen's intial inspiration from the earlier script she recieved in the production design pathway. Below I will attach a link to this blog.

The group formation session began on the 12th of November and previously to this I had already agreed with Carmen that I would like to work with her on the adaption to the original production design script, rather than making an installation based upon my own idea. Prior to this we had agreed to combine her script with my concept of a three screen video. During the session, Carmen and I visited the sound design room and heard as many of the soundscapes as possible. I recommended to Carmen that we considered Marta, for her horror style and Leo for his intricately realistic soundscape. During one of my chats with Marta discussing our general idea so far, Veronika had approached Carmen stating that she was interested in our idea. After several discussions with Carmen throughout the day, we had also accepted Aisa into our group so that we would have two production design members working on set. I also approached Anastajia throughout the day as I have worked with her briefly previously and was always interested in her cinematography style. However, Anastajia wished to work with Sara so we welcomed her to the group as well, Anastajia also had her own original experimental short idea which we agreed to merge with the script from Carmen if we did work together. From here, I collected Marta, Veronika, Aisa, Anasajia and Sara's contact details once we had confirmed that we would group together and created a group chat for us to communicate through going forward.
