In english we had the Worldbuilding project. In this project, we read other people’s worlds that they’ve built for most of the unit, and then after doing annotations, discussions, and writing about all of these different stories, we used the time we had left to make a world ourselves to present to the rest of the class. And to support this project, we made a couple things along the way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below you’ll see the surreal composition that we made in english class. We used new skills of blending images together in order to create an image that comes from the world that we built. <\/p>\n\n\n

Artist Statement<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Using Photoshop, I created this surreal piece resembling a 1400s painting using techniques of lighting matching and masking. By cutting out images from paintings that resemble a similar painting style, I can compile them together in an image that looks like a single painting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My world-building research entailed tradition and history, and I wanted to resemble that through my piece by giving it an ancient texture. If you look at any old depictions of civilization and people from the 1400s, aside from photographic recreations it’s all done in painting. So making this surreal composition a painting texture with a frame allowed it to feel like it was from the 1400s. Our world building project also has some really dark themes contained in it, about malice, violence, punishment. And I wanted to depict that in this painting. So I found a painting that represents those feelings, it was an old painting from the story of Exodus, which contains the violence and fear that I want but also the moral and punishment that I want to depict. So I used the mask tool and some careful blending of the mask in order to replace the sky with the sky from that painting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This project allowed me to think critically about what our world means and what the important elements of it are. That way when we give the pitch of the world that we made, we can better concentrate on the core elements that make it special. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

World Building Pitch Video<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The World Building pitch video is where we used digital animations in order to enhance our World Building presentation that we gave to our english class. First we listened to the feedback we got on our World Building class pitch, and then we used that to restructure our presentations so that they could be revised in the video. The video you’ll see bellow is the most polished version of our project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
