Best Thing Since Sliced Bread
Best Thing Since Sliced Bread
I really enjoyed the researching aspect of this project, however I struggled with being strict and selective with what I wanted to communicate in the final outcome. My plan was to make an interactive book showing the properties of tape without being obvious... which then turned into an interactive roll.... which then ended up showing the ‘origin story’ of each type of tape. I feel as though I just wasn’t clear enough with what I wanted to communicate, which is reflected in my final outcome. I’m determined to develop on what I have already done and create a sufficient outcome which clearly communicates the properties of tape.

Music seems to be intrinsic to humans. Go to any culture in the world and you will find some form of it. Music is almost like a language, which can be understood by anyone.
When listening to music, the rhythm, melody, and beat will put your brain wave patterns into a better state. Music increases dopamine production, as well as serotonin.
Music also creates new connections on the brain due to the complexity of it. Music cab and will leave an impression on the brain. Especially music with words, as because of the pattern of wording, it can influence thinking patterns.
I think music puts the brain into a unique state, and can be considered exercise for the brain. Listening to music frequently can create complex patterns in the brain, leading to creative thinking.

At first, I felt pretty inadequate because I didn’t think I succeeded in creating a piece of language that I could build off, so when I got home I decided to give it another shot. After half an hour of experimenting, I came up with a poem that I was quite proud of.
My research could have been a lot better. I should’ve done more research on the process of packaging, I should have recorded my visual references, however I was mainly focusing on storyboarding my outcome and testing what it would look like.
Overall, I am very proud of my 10 second animation, seeing as I had never used the clip art studio animation software before. The people before and after me in the video, communicated really well with me. It took quite a few tries getting the positioning of the cup of water and flying box correct but we got there in the end.
