BFA Thesis Project

For my BFA thesis project I would like to do a video that has motion graphics and effects in it. I am unsure of what my video will be on yet but I know I want to explore and get more detailed with graphics into video. Some concept ideas that I have right now include a video that has a simple concept but the graphics carry it along. Others I have thought about are sports related. I really liked the intro video to a football game and that sprung up more ideas of things that i could do for my BFA.

Project 2: Introduce your work and strengths Part II

In the digital arts I am primarily interested in time based art. I really enjoy video and motion graphics the most in digital arts. I find myself wanting to tell stories that don't out right tell you what is happening or what the meaning behind the story is. I like the viewer to make their own conclusions. I like movement in video and like to explore different effects and techniques that are available in this medium. There are a lot of different things you can do with video and I would like to explore them all. Although I like to explore different options in this medium I currently enjoy playing with motion graphics in video and have been focused on that for some time now. My video's currently are based on things that I have interest in such as dreams, psychology, movement, and a variety of animated pieces. I am a member on vimeo.com and from this site I get a lot of inspiration and ideas of areas that I can work on in my artwork. Some videos that can be connected to my work are videos like: https://vimeo.com/41692478 and https://vimeo.com/18305022.
