Artist

I focused on the work of Marc Webb as inspiration for my final project. He is well known mainly in the realm of music video direction. He has directed videos for groups from My Chemical Romance to AFI and Good Charlotte. The works I have chosen as examples of what I will attempt to do in my final project are, "Move Along" by All American Rejects, "The River" by Good Chralotte, "She Hates Me" by Puddle of Mud, "Dirty Little Secret" by All American Rejects, and "Work" by Jimmy Eat World. These pieces/videos don't all include spoken word as my final will, but they all contain different points of view from multiple people on one topic, which is what i am striving to do. I am interviewing some friends about the role music plays in their lives then cutting it and editing it to make it flow better and look more interesting. I think Marc Webb puts a lot of thought into his work and always tries to make it cohesive and interesting to the viewer even if the topic is lacking in content. This is something i hope i will be able to accomplish with my final piece.

Final Project: Idea 3

I have never really been great at illustration-type work, but my brother has recently has completed writing a series of childrens' stories and keeps begging me to do the artwork for them. If I choose to do this project I will have to overcome a lot of my fears in the artistic world. I would choose one of the stories to illustrate then in still frames make the story come to life on imovie, coupling my illustrations with his story.

Final Project: Idea 2

I have spent a lot of time thinking about life lately and how one of the few coping mechanisms I utilize is music. I then realized that music plays a large role in so many peoples lives and I thought it would be interesting to interview people and see what kinds of music they listen to, why they are drawn to them, and what role the music plays in their lives. For this I would use video and make a sort of interesting montage of all the different peoples feeling and ideas about music and its effect on them.
