Tutorial with James #2

Once again, I have been feeling very confused with what I am doing as part of my project, but after speaking with James he has really helped me to have have so many ideas as to what I can do with this project!

I finally feel a lot more excited with this as I have a much better vision of the final outcome!

I did a shoot yesterday of the evolution of a game of chess and was hoping to make a Stop-Motion video out of it, however it really needs to be re shot as it is very rough and the lighting is very off, however James told me to look at Eadweard Muybridge who works with motion projections (further research on him to be done), however this helped me to really think about creating a Zoe-scope of a still life photo shoot, which would almost completely contradict the idea of a Still life.

I am extremely worried that, even thought i Love this idea, it would no longer work with the idea of Greek mythology, so instead of working solely with Gods, I cam thinking of choosing 3 of my favorite Greek stories and representing them in this way. The installation would include a zoe-scope, as well as 2 large print images on the wall of the first and last images.

I finally feel like this project is moving forward and that I have an idea that has an ending! Photographing randomly and trying out different things has really helped to push me to have new exciting ideas.
