Nature

The second section shows more melancholy scenes.  In the first video, I used the dead and droopy flowers. Based on this video, there are certain emotions that are evoked. For example, the emotion of feeling sad and down, having difficulty getting up and "dusting yourself off". In order to achieve this emotion, I was on the search for flowers that looked dead and droopy but still had colors to represent what they could become mentally, emotionally, and other feelings and rain. I learned how much music and visuals play an affect on one's emotions. I enjoyed creating this piece as it is something that I am truly proud of no matter how professional it may or may not look. In the second video, I used smoke/steam in the rain. Similar to the explanation stated previously, the emotion evoked is a sad and eerie vibe. The viewing of smoke and the rain may symbolize the idea of a clouded mindset, filled with thoughts that may not be the most positive. The general process was slightly difficult because I was trying to find areas on campus where there was smoke which is not the common. In the third video, it was of people walking in the rain. The feeling evoked could be sad and just dragging along with the day. The purpose was to show that we are all one in the same and it is okay to not feel your complete best. My general process was slightly difficult. For example, I had to make sure it was raining and get a good amount of traffic of people while walking in the rain with their umbrellas. It was fun to record but at the same time I did respect their privacy and did not go too close so that their faces were not shown. My overall process was fun and I enjoyed making my own visuals with audio. I enjoyed the process because I thought my idea was very creative!
