Pressure Project: Umbrella
Posted: February 22, 2022 Filed under: Uncategorized Leave a comment »My original idea was to have three umbrellas that each represents me and my friends on a rainy day. I wanted Isadora to have unique sonic effects when the operator opens the umbrellas as follows:
Umbrella A: Jenna by herself on a rainy day (in her car)
Umbrella B: Ellen by herself (listening to music)
Umbrella C: Sejeong by herself (taking a walk)
Umbrella A and B: Jenna and Ellen having phone call
Umbrella A and C: Jenna and Sejeong having phone call
Umbrella B and C: Ellen and Sejeong having phone call
Umbrella A, B, and C: All Chatting
I wanted to reveal our video clips when the audience figure out the system. However, I could not figure out how to trigger videos with multiple keys in different combinations, so I decided to narrow them down to one variable: Jenna on a rainy day, indoor versus outdoor. When the umbrella opens, the audience see an outdoor video on a rainy day. When it closes, the audience see an interior image of the Sullivant Hall, where I took the video.
