This is our modernized western video clip 
Using the 180 rule and over the shoulder, We used Eye level filming as well,

What was working 

was the use of the room, space and materials 

What was not working 

Was how we were in Doors and didn't have the right scenery  
What we needed to work on was our Continuity scenes they weren't very obvious

My Tissue Paper Flowers

Ephemeral Existence

This Describes my paper flowers and what they mean to me

Often happiness is described as being ephemeral, as one does not find it to be a permanent state, within the scope of human lives. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ephemeral

The Fragility and Disintegration of the want and need for things to exist and they just cant exist for all time.

Quoted from fragile eco system
It has become a cliché to talk about the fragility of our planet, the fragility of our ecosystem. It has become an overused term that does not mean anything. Even the cardboard boxes on which were marked 'fragile', the movers threw them out without paying any attention. In this sense, what better place than a mall to expose all these products?

'Fragile' Ecosystem Sculpture Of 100% Recycled Materials By Roadsworth

Image: Screengrab from Fragile project video
Montréal street artist Peter Gibson, a.k.a. Roadsworth, well-known for his clandestine and eye-catching works of pavement art -- is back in Montréal making his mark again. But this time, instead of being arrested for using spray paint for the greater urban good, he and artist Brian Armstrong have turned to recuperated materials like plastic bottles and cardboard to make a large-scale art installation mimicking an ecosystem, now on exhibit in a downtown Montréal shopping center. Check out how it was made:
Completed over a period of three weeks and spanning over five floors of the Eaton Center, the sculpture uses 13,750 plastic bottles, cardboard, cans, bubble wrap and hangers to create an artificial ecosystem of fish, frogs, dragonflies occupying ponds, waterfalls, water lilies, cattails, algae and trees.
It took Gibson and Armstrong a year to gather and assemble the materials needed for the piece, which is titled "Fragile." In La Presse, Gibson says that the work attempts to bring awareness to the increasingly hackneyed nature of 'green' consumerism:
It has become a cliché to talk about the fragility of our planet, the fragility of our ecosystem. It has become an overused term that does not mean anything. Even the cardboard boxes on which were marked 'fragile', the movers threw them out without paying any attention. In this sense, what better place than a mall to expose all these products?

New conclusion

I am now working with the new idea of tissue paper and turning my idea into a repesentation of my life culture and how I can relate the flimsy, lightness and vulnurablity of how the tissue paper relates to my life story. This is my work so far.

working on my final for MOVING IMAGE

This is just a few shots of my work and how I vectored most of my early clips and then added a beach scene to give it a more tropical theme.

Whats working 

Whats working is the look and how it is turning out

Whats not working 

Whats not working is it is very time consuming and frustrating with such a close deadline, although I really want my video to look good so time is worth it.
Whats time consuming is I have to work in Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator before I can add the clip to my video and the thing that takes the longest is having to edit each clip one at a time.

Paper flowers OBJECT

This is towards my final , whats working would have to be the making of fowers, making flowers with tissue paper is very easy you cant actually go wrong.
I enjoy making these, I would say the only think I will have to research is joining them to the other flowers? Or if I should combine them on to a string like a lei form.

Paper Dresses



http://tvnz.co.nz/paper-dresses/index-group-4886929


Wow the detail in this paper dress is amazing I really like the flower shapes on it, Im thinking of recreating my skirt in to something like this with flowers all over it


Whats working

Would have to be my paper flowers as you can pretty much screw paper up and it looks like a flower.

Whats not working

I would have to say the beauty and time put into something like this dress above. I will have to research their joining technique.

Project runway2

And this was my final result, I was happy with it although in the end didn't think it was anywhere near as extreme as what it could of been. I really enjoyed the design concept though.
