Ikea marketing

Ikea made this marketing campaign through Facebook. I liked the viewer interaction it incorporates. The viral works by people tagging pieces of furniture they win it, sounds to good to be true, but a really good way of producing buzz.

Narrative process

Over the past few days I have had the chance to think about how I would like to show the process of my EMP. One idea I have been fond of is the idea of creating a time lapse film.
Today is the day where I start experimenting with the method. I have chosen to take a picture every 10 seconds to show the progress of the shot material. This should give me some extra motivation to produce work, and an extra dimension when showing the process I took to creating the final piece. I have experimented with timelapse before, when showing the process for Tim Patricks full portrait.

I now need to progress my research through looking at different narratives in order to produce some visuals. The simplicity of "bottle" gives the viewer an easy yet abstract narrative to follow. I would like to produce a piece with this simplicity that could use another level of technical ability.

Magazine design process

This was an influential piece of work in how to show a process, and now I am constantly thinking about my EMP I am trying to think of a new way in which I could show my process of reaching the final outcome without creating a sketchbook. One of my ideas is to create a timelapse piece which shows this process...

Thursday.

This is a narrative piece of animation which looks at the effect of technology on nature. I am interested in this style of communication as it is a path I am looking to take for my EMP. This piece of work has given me a little inspiration into what I could create.

TLK1 -Networking

This was the first lecture from TLK, this week was about networking and there were three guys from industry speaking about their past experiences. They were from local companies based in Bournemouth including: South west screen, Thinking juice and Redweb. The main subjects were looking at communication, creative clusters and social networking.

All three representatives were friends in industry which helped the interest of the talk. The main things I learned through this experience were when speaking to prospected people in industry it is important that I bring something to the table, even if its just a piece of research that could inspire someone, know what my audience is and stay at the forefront of their minds to improve regular communication.
From gaining work in my portfolio and working with industry professionals I would be improving my reputation as a person in industry.

Intel - The Chase

This is the most recent ad campaign by Intel called 'The Chase,' it is a film that simulates a multiwindow environment rather than the real thing and it therefore lacks the engagement. Many people in industry are tipping this style of multi window use to be a dominant trend in 2011.
