Showreel 2014

A showreel of my work throughout my time at Falmouth Uni!

Whilst studying on the Animation and Visual Effects course Emma worked as a producer on two major projects; Crocodile Tears and Luminocity. In her free time she also helps co-run a projection mapping group called Twisted Vision, and creates motion graphics for stage designs at music events in and around Cornwall.

Pixelate

Luminocity and Crocodile Tears both made it through to Pixelate film festival. They were screened at The Poly; a local theatre in the centre of Falmouth.

Luminocity: Installation event

The exhibition day quickly arrived! Getting all the kit and wood to the Fish Factory took a couple of car journeys because we had so much equipment. We were still trying to decide whether to interview members of the audience to get they're reactions but in the end we decided against it. We wanted to make the documentary focused about the work. At the beginning of the day, after unloading we began setting up some of the equipment around the room. The room was still being repainted from the last exhibit so we had to wait quite a while before we could put up the artwork. In some ways this was good because we needed to pop back to collect a few extra bits we had forgotten - like a jug, spare hardrive, breakfast etc. After getting back Nick mapped out the main piece whilst I went around the room, setting up the artwork. We had just enough time to pop out to get some dinner before the start of the event. I had brought some plastic wine cups for the wine but unfortunatley a lot had broken in the post, so we had to use tumblers. The guests started arriving at 7:15pm so there was quite a bit of time before the first showing. A crowd of local artists joined as, along with a lot of other animators from the course. The wine ran out quite quickly! We showed the showing around 8, 8:30, 8:45 and 9pm. Overall we had a really good reaction, and the crowd really enjoyed our work. The venue worked really well with the piece as well, because of the white walls and concrete floor, it really set the atmosphere. There is talk of taking it to bigger venues in Cornwall and Bristol. After the guests had left, Nick and I had a go with filming ourselves being interviewed. Video to follow.

Luminocity: Fish Factory event flyer

I created an event flyer for the fish factory to give to guests who attended the event. I sent them to be printed at Repographics and then Nick mounted all the work for the walls onto foam board so it would look nicer on the walls.

Luminocity: Exhibition space planning

My house Nickie Chadwick studies Interior design at Falmouth and taught me how to turn the Fish Factory cad plans into a 3D model using Sketch up and Cinema 4D. These are layout designs for the exhibition space, I was experimenting with the different styles:

Luminocity: Building the structure

I got in contact with Jason Cleverly, the course leader for Contemporary Crafts. I sent him information about our project and he forwarded my message to his students. Chris Wootton replied and Nick met up with him the next week to discuss model plans. Chris helped us by building the model and then we all had to paint / sand it.
