Display Ideas

This idea involves having a composite film in the centre of the display showing 2 videos together at each time. Around the outside there would be 8 video clips, and each clip that was not being shown would be grayed out. This would move around the outside gradually getting through the journey showing different composites.

The good points about this are:
-all the video, both day and night, can be seen on the same layout.
-the sound for it would work well as there will only be one composite showing at one time.

The problems with this are:
-the main composite, being the main piece of work would end up being relatively small.
-upon experiments I have found that the day and night time don't mix well together using a difference blending mode, so I would not be able to mix them, leaving this idea more redundant than the others.


This idea involves having 4 day videos at the top, 4 night videos at the bottom, and 2 composites, one day and one night, in the middle.

the good points are:
-all the videos can be seen at the same time, both day and night.
-each set is separated and therefore can be shown more effectively.
-the composites would have more space and therefore could be bigger than in idea one.

the disadvantages are:
-the sound, it would make it confusing as two sets of sound would be playing, one for each composite.


This idea involves having two separate files for each set of videos. The composite would be the main attraction of the display, having the other videos at the bottom to be able to be referred to and compare against the composite.

Advantages:
-bigger composite
-sound can be easily distinguished for each set, as they would be separated.

Disadvantages:
-the project would be split into two different files.
