'The Performer'
For my senior thesis project, I have been in production on a piece called 'The Performer'.
What started as a pure film-based project, evolved as I completed my time in school. I moved to a projection-based project, interchangeable between both screen and projection. For this project, I also had to dig into my dance training, which has been a few years since I danced.
This process went over the length of my final year at SCAD, going through many trials and errors along the way.

Timeline:
I approached this project as a producer, working out my timeline and gaging the time and skills needed for the entire project. I was anticipating when I knew there would be changes afoot and adjusted the plan accordingly to maximize the payout of these changes.
Timeline:
During this process, the footage went through several changes, including slight compression, to help include traditional alternative tools to create the desired look at hand. As I continued to layer and time out the different sections, I ran into the issue of the composition darkening, and my desired outcome needed no expectations throughout this creative process.
