Photo Roman
Well, I finished my first project for the year. I created a Photo Roman [Roe-mon]. Basically, I had ten photos to tell a story. I will actually post the project at www.myspace.com/hugecowpatty as soon as I get onto my PC. Stupid Mac OS X Safari isn't supported by the myspace.com blog editor.
Anyways, it was fun and interesting.... and different. I told a story of a man who gets stuck in the bathroom and can't get out. Because I can't post the project here, here's the diagram I used as a template for the project.
Action Interpretation
Guy 1 washes hands. Close-up of Guy 1’s hands turning off bathroom sink.
Guy 1 tries to open door and can’t because it’s stuck. Full shot of Guy 1 pushing on door and looking confused.
Guy 1 pushes harder. Medium shot of Guy 1 gritting teeth and pressing self up . against stuck door.
Guy 1 kicks door. Full shot of Guy 1 in the action of kicking door.
Guy 1 karate chops door. Medium shot of Guy 1 in action of karate chopping door.
Guy 1 gets hurt. Close-up of swelled hand.
Guy 1 gets angry. Medium shot of Guy 1 looking angry.
Guy 1 runs at door. Full shot of Guy 1 in action of charging door. Door has just . begun to open.
Guy 2 from outside opens the door. Over the shoulder shot of Guy 2 standing at now opened door . looking surprised as Guy 1 is in action of mowing down Guy 2.
Guy 1 runs into Guy 2 and they both fall over. Full shot of Guy 1 lying on top of Guy 2 out side of door.
When I got to the bathroom I was going to be using, I noticed that the door opened the wrong way. So, all the pushing became pulling. Also, the bathroom was too small for any full shots to happen. So, every shot larger than a full shot became a medium shot. And, right before the kicking the door sho, Mike (my model) decided to climb on the floor and do a Loony Tunes place-both-feet-on-the-door-and-pull move. So the karate chop was changed to that and the throbing hand shot was changed to Mike holding a trash can at the door. Other than that, everything went as planned.
Ultimately, I feel really good about the project. Make sure to check out www.myspace.com/hugecowpatty for the actual photos.
