Future Cinema workshops October 16, 2009

Posted by admin in : Uncategorized , add a comment

On Thursday 15th Oct and Monday 18th Oct we will cover some ideas and resources relating to interactive-cinema and Future-Cinema, these included:

Zbigniew Rybcinski: The Orchestra (1990)

This early HDvideo film uses extensive motion-control cinematography, with camera-movements rigorously plotted against a digital print-out of the audio-volume envelope, to create a work that combines music, choreography, dance, costume, - with the motion-control rig creating a kind of ‘choreographed camera’ - in a highly surrealist style.

AES+F: The Last Riot (2007)

This remarkable multi-screen video was the Russian entry at the Venice Biennale in 2007 - an immersive multimedia, multi-screen experience with Wagnerian-style classical music. The film makes extensive use of computer-generated animation, film loops and colour-keyed live action with dancers and actors.

We agreed that each student would bring an example of work that would be relevant to Future Cinema - and present this on Monday 18th (max 10mins each).

We looked at a number of relevant websites and online interactive works, selected from a list that included:

Recognising objects October 15, 2009

Posted by admin in : Uncategorized , add a comment

Here are some useful thing that you might want to know! This morning we discussed the idea that you might want to recognize objects on for example a table. One of the ways in which you could do this is by using the Reactable fiducial symbols.

To use the coding with these might be a bit daunting but we do have 10 copies of MAXMSP with Jitter, this is a modular programming tool that can be used with video and external devices.

I’ll give you a little look at each one of these in the introductory session. While this unit is going to be about developing new narrative forms for today’s young audience, there will be a need to have tools to develop prototypes.

Introduction(Cinema is dead long live cinema) October 2, 2009

Posted by admin in : Uncategorized , add a comment

Born in Wales and educated in London, Peter Greenaway trained as a painter for four years, and started making his own films in 1966. He now lives in Amsterdam.

He has continued to make cinema in a great variety of ways, which has also informed his curatorial work and the making of exhibitions and installations.

He has made 12 feature films and some 50 short-films and documentaries, been regularly nominated for the Film Festival Competitions of Cannes, Venice and Berlin, published books, written opera librettos, and collaborated with composers Michael Nyman, Glen Branca, Wim Mertens, Jean-Baptiste Barriere, Philip Glass, Louis Andriessen, Borut Krzisnik and David Lang.

His first narrative feature film, The Draughtsman¹s Contract, completed in 1982, received great critical acclaim and established him internationally as an original film maker, a reputation consolidated by the films, The Cook, the Thief, his Wife & her Lover and The Pillow-book, The Tulse Luper Suitcases, and most recently by Nightwatching.

Here is a really interesting interview with Peter Greenaway where he talks about using VJing as a way of delivering narrative based content and the death of film
