22nd - 27th January - Transcription

I have had a lot of technical issues considering my blog as I have not actually had access to a computer outside of the university, but I now have my own laptop back so I will be able to continue onwards keeping my blog up to date.

During the past week on this project I had really struggled with what I wanted to do. I knew I wanted to create a short film/video, but I had no ideas where to go after choosing Jamie Hewlett as my artist.

I ended up focusing on his work on Tank Girl, and what themes are contained in the work.

A lot of the point of this work was that it was used as an outlet for anything Hewlett and Martin wanted to get out in the open. So I carried on my thought track looking at this, within current world issues. My choice ended up being the subject of feminism, which was highly influenced by Tumblr, which is a highly used medium at the current time for being able to express yourself. A video that really influenced me through my research was 'Oppressed Majority' by Eleonore Pourriat.

I have ended up with a final idea to be shot tomorrow, which will be posted on Saturday.
