What if Metropolis Thumbnails 13: Building Orthographs




After going through the designs that I came up with for the buildings and the shops, I decided to only use the extra rectangle props (the objects that look like canopies) on the shops, as I feel they make the building feel more like a shop or business, while also helping to visually separate the shops and restaurants from the houses. I didn't want to drastically separate the designs as within the city they are all grown and created form the residents, so keeping them similar would reflect how they view buildings and show how isolated the city it is from other influences. I only went with a cafe and a music repair shop orthography, as I only have a limited frame and wanted to only use buildings that would explain something about the city, so the cafe would show that the city is open for tourists and has a social side, while the music repair shop tied the music elements from Kadinsky and the cities creation into the design, for my OGR I will put this with the object orthologies that I features within my last post.

Sound Experiment 04

 Today I decided to record some more natural sounds, this time seeing how the sound of wind would sound through a window before I recorded it outside, as I think the slight whistling noise through the window would make it sound more interesting, I am planning on collecting more natural sounds, but I wanted to see how it would sound before I progressed onwards in case the background noise was too much in comparison to the wind and ruined it.  For the second sound for my second image, I wanted to continue to find something more sharper so I tried to record the sound of cactus spikes, particularly if I ran my fingers through it, as it makes a very sharp, high pitched sound that I think could work better, especially if I could replicate the sound to reflect the more smaller portions of the image.  Lastly I wanted to try and collect a more electronic sound for image one, to match its sharp, electric colours so I wanted to start by recording a microwave, as I thought is humming noi

Premise: Room Design and Development

Image
After finally deciding on a character design for the lead in my story, I decided to take that design and explore I will approach the environment where the story will be set. I wanted to look at making the room look very dull and also mismatched and dated to suit the juxtaposing feeling it has against Drew and how they feel being within the environment and how it feeds into their feeling of loneliness. I want ed to have an obvious focus toward the room looking old and not suited for Drew by looking at dated carpets and duvet designs to show how ill suited the room if for them, so I mainly focused on 50's patterned and designs. I also wanted to explore how I could structure the bed before finally comparing how I wanted the room to look colour wise. I am struggling to decide whether the rom looks good or bad against all the unflattering colours and designs, and as well which room conveys the idea I had for it the most effectively (e.g it previously being a young girls ro
