Architecture in Motion

This workshop completed was quite interesting and fun. Although it took time and effort I think it was worth it. Through this workshop we had view 3-4 images on the screen that were repeated over and over again, thus we had to draw them and remember what they were. The aim was to make a video from still images in relation to the images shown to us in class.


The next week back we had to develop at least a 10sec video, which completed by me but unfortunately I had a car accident on the way the uni. (Please make sure your rear lights are working). Thus, I didn’t get to come uni and show what if I’m on the right track or not.

For the week after my video was on track but not quite good. Therefore I had to put in a lot of effort for it to be below for you to view.

Basically this is my spatial narrative "The still image show initiates from the model made as it starts from the carves on the sand stone and slowly grabs attention to see what’s behind the wall. The attention is grabbed from the centre hole, from model it changes to drawings that show the construction of the space. As the space is built the camera moves around and thus the whole space is known to be the same, then the space warns out."

Basically the camera is a human eye (the person looking at this video is them going through the journey). The journey starts of as the person seeing the stone wall been carved then he/she throws a rock at the centre and it makes a crack. Thus, the person is eager to know whets behind the wall. As the light from behind the wall shines they get desperate to find out what is behind so they get closer and closer. They seem to get through the wall and come in a new world where they see the space been built and constructed. As the space is built, the person (in this case you viewing it) sees a long road ahead of them, they turn to see if there are other paths in the environment, but all they see is the same path. Therefore they choose the middle path as they think it’s the better claim. As the person travels this path taken, they were mistaken, the wrong decision was made. Since the path fades it means the person is dying. This journey ends with a negative point.
