PHEW!

Yes that's me passed out in the eventual slum that has become my room, my desk being the epicentre of chaos.


COMPLETE! FINITO!

-edits finished
-audio cut
-birds returned home to hampton court
-balloons beginning to deflate
-all coding and interaction design done

Now for the project portfolio and screenprinting those balloons for the show. And seeing daylight.

Video Edits!

After manic panic attacks, late night rendezvous to collect burnt programs and cursing at laptops, the videos are finally edited. HUGE thanks to Chris my editing angel at Shining TV.
Now it's onto the 360 shoot, photoshopping those 40 + images and getting it ready to be coded into a quicktime virtual reality piece.
Still trying to find suitable soundtracks and get those balloons printed for the show!

Behind the Scenes

Some of the initial images I'll use:


Some photos from the first of the two major shoots involving; a large tank of helium gas, 35 giant balloons, one stuffed swan, two stems of special oriental orchids, make up artist, model, assistant (thanks Hung!) and lots and lots of retakes!





Excellent makeup job by Tomoko~!
Some different lighting exposures; the great thing about this reflective dress was that it actually glowed!

Getting balloons to stay where you want them is pretty difficult! They ended up staying put with a bit of tape and a stern talking to (there may have been threats made with a needle also...)

Two mammoth shoots down, lots and lots of post-production and editing to go! More pictures coming soon.

Sneak Peek!
