Jabriya's Visual Studies

I want to say this project took a lot of planning, but I think in reality it just took a different kind of planning than I was used to. I had to consider the requirements for the project, what my idea was, when to shoot, how to shoot,and how to work out all the editing. I don't think any one part was especially troublesome. There are some video transitions that I couldn't quite get smooth, but I think I spent less time being frustrated than I did with some of the other projects.  I didn't really see this project as much more or less constricting than other projects we've done. We still had specific elements to include, but I feel like there was a lot of room to choose an idea we were excited about in all the big projects. I feel like the project turned out pretty well. I adjusted to what the process of making this kind of art entails and I was satisfied with the outcome.

It's fascinating that if you repeat one footstep enough times, you can move stone. All things take work and time. Hopefully with my own hard work and time I will get to climb these steps as well as other steps around the world.

  While I spent this whole semester at Temple, I hadn't gone back to visit my old campus. There hadn't been a need for it, but I thought about the steps around Saint Joseph's University. I wanted to use them for one of my blog posts because, though I am not there anymore, it is still part of my identity. I'm still adjusting to being back in school, and so far I love being a Tyler student. Despite the years that have passed, though, revising SJU after walking these steps for a year and a half, it's weird, but in a way, I found it still feels like home. 

This is a link to the in-class exercise we did to try out scale, motion, and volume effects. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZiddPvBUdDQ The video is already a lot visually so I only used one extra effect which just changed the way the edges of the video look.
