Exp 2 - week 5 Strategy

NOTION OF DECAY - Strategy statement

• The natural disaster i am using is earthquake. 
• There will be a tree growing underneath the house. The tree will gradually push the house. The 4 posts supporting the Rudin House will break and the house will slanted to one side. The side that is closer to the ground will have a lot of broken concrete due to the force when it was tipped over. The little basement  underneath the concrete base will be broken in half separating itself to the slab when the house is tilted.
• Most of the glass will be broken or completely gone due to wind, the forces of the building falling to the side and because the timber frames are no longer durable to support the glass after 100 years.
• The concrete roof will gradually bend and to show that i will add water inside the bent part of the roof as if its holding rain water.
• The structure for the Rubin House is steel because it is made out of concrete. A bit of the steel structure will be shown where the concrete is broken. It will be rusty and also broken with the concrete.

Exp 2 - Week 4

MOVIES

1. 2012
   
   
   The trailer is intense. I like the editing how it shows different places and people around the globe and how they react to the problem. It also shows how the world ends by nature, not by humans which would really help for this assignment.
   
   
   
2. VANISHING ON 27th STREET
   
   This movie is pretty much about life with humans. In the trailer when the guy walks out of the building and realises that he's the only one there... it creates this emptiness feel.
   
3. PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN 2
   Not much is shown in this trailer but there a few scenes that are filmed in the jungle. It shows moss grown on the rocks and thick vines dangling down from the trees. I can use this as an inspiration to edit my island.
   
4. WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE
   
   
   'Where the wild things are' is a very meaningful story. The little boy creates this little imaginary world where he interacts with friendly creatures. In a way it shows life without people but life with creatures (monsters). This is can used in this assignment. I can have monsters destroying the building.
   
5. JUMUNJI
   
   
   Towards the end of the trailer, it does the house being flood with vines everywhere around the house. This is an idea i can use for my assignment.
