so here is what i've been working on over the past week since class... getting all of the components into the timeline as a solid rough cut. the sound design is still a work in progress, and was not worthy of including in this post, but a solid rough cut of the sound design will be done by tomorrow. from here on out, it's just tweaking things (as you can see from the rough cut, theres a few points that need work...), finding interesting effects and whatnot to add (just found CC Scatterize - it's awesome!), and perhaps adding one or two other self-created components (thus far, the two that have BY FAR taken me the longest to create didn't make it in, because i couldn't them to look like i had envisioned, and wasn't pleased with their final look and feel, as they didn't exactly fit into the puzzle. a bummer, for sure, but thats how these things go sometime...). as far as sound design goes, it is just as much, if not more important than the visuals. this is the kind of project where the weight of both parts is evenly distributed, and neither could function fully without the other (see below: on duality). so when a rough cut of that is done (and when i get internet in my new house!) i'll upload that too...
thus far, it has been quite the interesting trip... that's what i love about projects like this... they create and mold themselves over time, and i just kind of help that process along... i'm pretty happy with how it looks so far. what i would consider it is a kind of meta-physical journey through the awakening of human consciousness (and thus unconsciousness). the most prevalent theme is most certainly duality, with that being the whole point, or, the "lesson," if you will. so in a way, this project has been a study in duality for me... i have learned an incredible amount of things about that, about myself, and about after effects so far, and it shows no signs of slowing...
