Refining (building and reflecting upon the portfolio of experiments)
After completing these experiments I’ve got a confident idea of what I want to accomplish for my final project, they’ve given me a sense of direction which I wasn’t sure about when first starting, I enjoyed that each experiment built upon the other to gradually become more complex. I also found these experiments on noticing have helped my skills in creating a layered experimental montage and observing peoples character, I’m excited to build upon this project with the help of feedback from the pitch panel and continue to develop what type of ways I might film to make my presence when filming less direct.

Taking from this portfolio of experiments and feedback, I’ve drafted some ideas and notes for the final ‘Noticing’ assessment:

• A video project focusing on several individuals habits, what they believe they are and what I am able to notice and record.
• The video aims to reveal habits and behavior that people aren’t in tune or aware of.
• The relationship between the camera and the individual; how much are they aware of themselves being filmed, does this dramatically change their habits- catching the individuals off guard and contrasting that to when their aware of filming.
• Do their habits match up with the behaviors they notice about themselves.
• Both visual and auditory dynamics to create a layered montage that present a ‘piece’ that as a whole represents the individuals habits, this way (through using media) we can have an understanding of how they might feel and what they might notice through their perspective.
