Concept Development

 































What meaning can you bring to your concept?


My original concept was movement That these days it is getting to the point where people cant move without been seen by someone, are we trading our civil liberties for security, are we approaching 1984?
That these days it is getting to the point where people cant move without been seen by someone, are we trading our civil liberties for security, are we approaching 1984?


What is your point of view?

That if we are not careful we may end up losing some of our civil liberties
That if we are not careful we may end up losing some of our civil liberties, slowly governments are contemplating and implementing laws that are taking away some minor civil liberties. These changes seem minor und unconnected
If this trend continues it will expand and the general public will lose more and more rights, including our rights to privacy, expression, free speech


What are the points of view of others in society on this topic?

Civil Liberties Australia – www.cla.asn.au
George Orwell - Nineteen Eighty Four
Alan Moore - V for Vendetta
A Scanner Darkly


How can you communicate your point of view to persuade another?


My final images will be an extreme scene from a possible future. Most of the characters in the scene will not have faces, to represent that with so much censorship and no free expression or independent thought every one would become faceless people in a crowd.
My final 4 images will be able to connect together to make a larger scene.
Paint a picture of a possible future; use shock value, ethical dilemmas, bleak colors.
Reference Orwell’s Nineteen Eighty Four novel 

I was planning on using watercolors, mainly bleak, dull and cold colors.
Organic
Tilting the page up to get drip effect


What is the intended result?

To get people to think, to get people to question what is in front of them

  1. further to discussion about your concept & realisation.... consider multiple view points displayed simultaneously (as you proposed in class) and consider a format that is relevant to your message. i.e. a 2-dimensional image may not be sufficient to communicate your message.... make the viewer 'experience' your illustration in a new way. it could be a 3-dimensional application, multiple screen views, hidden cameras, live feed in real time with tour watercolour illustrations interspersed somehow.... possibilities are endless. I think your work will be best realised as 'experiential'. Remember that you can make a 'mock up' of the final pieces - you don't have to actually create the installation in it's entirety - just present it professionally - as you would a pitch for a design job.
