ProposalInstructionsProject proposals are due Oct 1. Please use next week while I'm not here to form pairs (unless you want to work alone) and start to develop ideas. The proposal should be 2-3 pages long and answer the following questions. - What is the effect that you hope to create in your video? How do you think the visual effect will support the narrative of the video? (that is, why is the effect you propose suitable to the context?) - How is the effect related to one or more of the papers in the course packet? - What other related work is there from the technical or artistic literature that is related to your idea? (research papers, examples of similar effects in TV, movies, commercials. For grad students, I expect some research articles cited here.) - Where will you collect your raw image/video/audio data from? - What is your strategy/plan of action for realizing your conceptual idea? That is, what tasks need to be performed? What is the rough schedule for these tasks? It is important to be realistic in this step. You shouldn't propose a highly complex project if you have no idea how to realize it. - What software do you anticipate using to accomplish your goals? What type of coding will need to be done to accomplish the effect? Note that I don't want to see projects that are entirely composed of plugins/existing code- some sort of hand-written code is important to get "under the hood". We'll have time to talk more in class this week. |
