These are good images, and great examples of what sort of effects I like especially because it is set in a bush scene.These lights are subtle enough but still they don't belong here.... What are they??? I have been filming, playing with what natural affects I can acheive, I used a mirror to reflect moving lights into the bush, it looked very similar to this.
I like this image because it's similar to what sort of experimenting I would like to play around with, images and lights in the bush.
This is a close up image of the faery skelton..... And another fairy tale fantasy image I liked because of the black silhouette against the purple sky., with the moon which is a mystical object.
I have looked into real encounters with faeries and strange things out of curiosity and found these two images of true findings, mainly to help your belief that there is something out there. Below is a skeleton of a fairy and next to it who would know. I read a few stories of peoples experiences of presences..... mainly in Scotland, I like the idea of "affect" The feeling you get when you become aware of a strange experience. Affect is a non-conscious experience of intensity what we experience, not to be confused with feelings and emotions. I would like to some how this kind of effects in my film.
I've decided to create a short fantasy based film about a child who believes in fairies. Her strong belief crosses over with her imagination confusing the viewer as to what is really happening. Filming in nature and bush settings, with streams and natural sounds of these locations. Then I will animate visual effects into the film work suggesting fairies or an essence of them. I have been collecting images that I like or appeal to me in some way or another. The image to the right caught my attention for the white sparkling lights creating magical feelings. And the image below I like because of the dense bush feeling and the little faery images in the back ground almost blended into the forest.
With this project I would like to realy experiment alot with filming, geting to know my camera, learnig to use it manualy, filming different shots, angels and any other techniques I come across while filming. Then focus on getting to know new programmes like after affects and final cut pro. I have been filming a lot in nature and want to add little animated creatures and effects to create some child like fantsay........... An experience of a childs, that to me feels lost to todays world where children seem to have forgotton how to engage with nature instead they turn to the indoors with technology.....
