Abstract Story

The story of our video is about a prince and a princess. In the first part the princess is waiting for the prince to come, and when he came to get her they went on their way to a castle to ask her parents if he can marry her. They don't agree with their marriage. After that, the prince and the princess run away to get married. After that they are happy. The sequence of images that I am most proud of is 1:52- 2:15. In this segment we were trying to show that the mood changhed drastically. The images we chose were effective because the fire was a symbol of anger and the faces twisting were supposed to show that the parents did not approve. The colors helped because red gives off a feeling of anger and blue gives a sense of sadness. I think our film is about 30% abstract. We made sure that the colors matched the mood such as the clips i listed that we were most proud of. I learned that there are many interpretations when it comes to abstract images and that they can really evoke a feeling. Between pictures and music, I learned that you have to match up the feelings of both the picture and the music in order to get a feeling across. The most important contribution that my partner made to this film was her imput about how to edit the pictures and clips to get and where to put things. I believe that my most important contribution was editing and also sharing my ideas with her.
