Overview of Animation Strategies
I like the chaos and fast paced movement in this piece. Also loves the background audio composition done by Knalpot of simple electronic beats paired with a drum line and varying guitar riffs. This cut animation uses carious forms of mixes media and gives dimension to the overall picture. This anti-violence animation is somewhat psychedelic in the way that it was filmed. It is jumpy and keeps the eyes unbroken attention so that the mind can follow the artist's message.

Subconscious Dive
Here is my sound/image sequence for project #2 using my audio from project sound & memory.
Audio Analysis of 'Subconscious Dive'

For my piece, I constructed the atmosphere of a therapist's office in where a psychologist instructs the patient to take a 'Subconscious Dive' in order to help reminisce and heal a traumatizing memory. The spoken word and fast paced breathing in the audio is my recorded voice and I enjoyed manipulating the therapist's voice to resemble a lagging, eery male's tone. A lot of the sounds recorded use small objects such as window blinds, a stapler, a head

I really focused on the internal mind of the patient. You're listening to the audio as the patient experiences it, similar to having a front seat in the back of their eyes. The best part of the project were the critiques that I received from my classmates'. I made the audio with full intention of putting the audience in an uncomfortable state. I was slightly nervous to see reactions but the darting eyes, and tensed sitting positions of the listeners affirmed my motives. If I did not receive these reactions I would have viewed my project as a total failure.
