Reimagine it for (and take advantage of) the new medium. *Describe your project here – explain the evolution* + +The idea for this project began as a stop motion animation/timelapse video instructional for hand casting. I set up both a video camera and a camera shooting frames every 5 seconds, imagining that the process could speak for itself, because it is very visual. I soon learned that it's difficult to document such an intensive process without an extra set of hands and without a well thought out shot plan/storyboard for imperative, key shots to explain the process. So, I was left with gigabytes worth of documentation content, but a lot of it involved motion blurred images. And, I learned that simply documenting a process (even if it is quite visual) isn't sufficient. It's important to think of key steps in a process and key information that could easily be translated visually (for example, measurements of ingredients). + +This web version of the process pairs down the process to key steps, includes short copy to support the visuals as well as links to learn more about and purchase materials. + +Here are some photos of my process: +![shooting1] (shooting1.JPG) +![shooting2] (shooting2.JPG) diff --git a/casting1.jpg b/casting1.jpg new file mode 100755 index 0000000..2bac9cb Binary files /dev/null and b/casting1.jpg differ diff --git a/casting2.JPG b/casting2.JPG new file mode 100755 index 0000000..0099c8b Binary files /dev/null and b/casting2.JPG differ diff --git a/casting3.jpg b/casting3.jpg new file mode 100644 index 0000000..bc5f82f Binary files /dev/null and b/casting3.jpg differ diff --git a/casting4.jpg b/casting4.jpg new file mode 100644 index 0000000..eedea07 Binary files /dev/null and b/casting4.jpg differ diff --git a/casting5.jpg b/casting5.jpg new file mode 100644 index 0000000..ff74c1b Binary files /dev/null and b/casting5.jpg differ diff --git a/casting6.jpg b/casting6.jpg new file mode 100644 index 0000000..818a57e Binary files /dev/null and b/casting6.jpg differ diff --git a/casting7.jpg b/casting7.jpg new file mode 100644 index 0000000..fc1fbd9 Binary files /dev/null and b/casting7.jpg differ diff --git a/casting8.jpg b/casting8.jpg new file mode 100644 index 0000000..2408eac Binary files /dev/null and b/casting8.jpg differ diff --git a/casting9.jpg b/casting9.jpg new file mode 100644 index 0000000..2bab092 Binary files /dev/null and b/casting9.jpg differ diff --git a/index.html b/index.html index 6257184..07445c0 100644 --- a/index.html +++ b/index.html @@ -1,9 +1,122 @@ - So-and-so's Instructional Assignment - - - YOUR CODE HERE + Julia's Instructional: How To Cast Your Hand + + + + + + + +
