Week8: Scene integration & Video Editing

Scene integration

The lab is floating in the air and the floor of the lab is transparent and overlooks the whole city. so In order to keep the lab dimly lit while illuminating the city below, I carried out some experiments and this is how the tests were carried out

The final result

1 Try importing the model of the city scene into the scien lab scene, the city scene is too large which requiring very bright lighting that would bringing too much impact the lighting of the lab scene.


2 Try to render a top view map of the city scene. Make a plane below the lab scene and paste the city scene on it.


3 Gave a parallel area that the light could not illuminate.


4 Try lighting around the perimeter of the city scene. The light is too bright and affects the lab scene.


5 Used a spherical light, the light was too bright.


6 Use a realistic sky light that not only imitates the light of the sunset to illuminate the city, but also maintains the original light of the lab scene well.

Video Editing

I made a stream of consciousness video by edited using previously recorded videos .This video is designed to show the protagonist traversing numbers and codes to a utopian reality

(The glitch effect was taken from material on an open source website:https://www.capcut.cn/)

At the bottom of the video are two video clips of me in the UK, One from a trip to Kew Gardens and the other from the London Eye fireworks display in the New Year. I then adjusted the channels and tones etc to combine the video with a glitch art effect.

The relationship between the world of algorithms and code and the real world is subtle and complex, they are not completely opposed to each other, sometimes people need a virtual world but they should not lose sight of the beauty of the real world by indulging in it.

For the last part I let the light in the frame go white so as to take over to the next shot.

Frameless

This week we visited frameless, an exhibition with very interesting ideas and a very relaxing and immersive exhibition. Using modern technology to present timeless classic paintings, each gallery has a different theme, different style and presentation, a comprehensive artwork that combines the senses of sight and sound and interaction. Providing a place for people to rest, the

  • The entire venue is divided into four galleries

The exhibition combines projections and mirrors, and features a number of famous paintings such as The Persistence of memory, and The Dawn of Venus.

There is advanced motion tracking technology that allows for more interaction with the paintings, and works by painters such as Van Gogh, Monet, Robert and Delaunay appear.
