Video Deconstruction

For my video deconstruction, I definitely had the idea on how the media portrays people, specifically women. So with this idea, my original video was going to be how the media portrays women, but how most of their information is false. Not a lot of people notice how fake pictures can be with photoshop and they think that the person actually looks like that. With the videos that I found online, I noticed that people felt very influenced by how the media portrays women but not in a good way. I noticed that a lot of these women started feeling bad about themselves and how they ended up just feeling very insecure. With this new information that I noticed I decided to change my idea slightly. So the video that I did was, "How the media portrays women can affect their insecurities and self-love."  The videos that I used in my video were all found online on youtube and a lot of the voices that I used were just bits of ted talks. The message that I wanted to get across was self-love and to not compare yourself to anyone because you are who you are. There are a lot of people in the world that people will look up too, but instead, they take the negative route and think that they're not enough because they are not them. This could be people in the media such as models, actresses, public figures, etc. Instead of looking at all the negative aspects that you see of yourself, you should be seeing all the greatness that you are.

Xerox

For the Xerox project, I only used what was on my face to make my project. I made about 7 copies of my face from the Xerox machine and then I decided what to do after I made the copies. At first, I had a completely different idea and was going to use my face and hands with something. Then I saw that we were doing it on art movements so I started to research some. The most interesting one that I found was cubism or cubist. The most famous artist that used this type of technique in his art was Picasso. After I went through some of his artwork I picked out my favorite pieces and tried to be inspired by that. So with my project, I ended up cutting out pieces of my eyebrows, eyes, nose, and mouth. After that, I taped it over one of the copied pictures that didn't turn out very well. As you can see from the pictures above you can kind of see how I did things. I actually liked doing this project I thought that it was very interesting and fun. I kind of wish I would've

Performance Art with Marcus

Performance Art is a very interesting concept. From what we've learned in class it's kind of like a public experiment to see how people react. My 3 favorite videos that we watched in class was the flash mob, the orchestra, and the frozen people at the train station. The flash mob video that we watched in class with Oprah and the black-eyed peas was very funny and cool. At first, it just looked like there was one crazy fan dancing by herself, but as the song went on each section joined her dancing. I liked how there were so many people involved with it and the reactions they got towards their performance. The next performance art piece that I really enjoyed in class was the orchestra. In the beginning, there was only one person playing an instrument and one by one more people would come out and join him and they made a whole ensemble by the end. I also liked watching people's reaction towards this piece because of how surprised they would get as another person would join the
