Checking In

I wanted to check back in after brief 3 because a few things I spoke about in my last update post have changed (yay for change!).

In brief 3 I worked in a group of four people, when I had worked in pairs for both briefs before this. I found this so refreshing! There were so many more ideas, more people to create video content and more voices when it came to both the editing process and writing the artist statement. I'm working in a group of three for brief 4 so I'm glad to have another opportunity to explore creating something with a group.

In my group of four I was able to take on different roles than I previously had. I got to film a lot of short nature clips in my local area which was really fun. I had some creative freedom to film myself (after coming up with the basic concepts as a group) which made me feel more connected to the final work. I could see how clips that I had initially filmed could be changed significantly by someone else's editing and guided group discussion.

I think the success of this collaboration was our communication. We had a group chat, there weren't any cases of someone disappearing for long periods and we were supportive of each other.

Brief 3 felt much more challenging (partially because of the short time frame) and for that reason, I enjoyed it a lot more. I enjoyed the dynamic of working with different people on different parts of of the process. I'm really looking forward to seeing what comes out of the final brief for the semester.
