a different way of looking at it

this second video, and final diagram study (for now :) uses transparency overlays to abstract the overlayed color swatches. i am going to attempt to splice these images into the final animation using final cut pro, which i used for the first time this afternoon to create these animated slide shows! these images are very spatially rich, vibrant and emblematic of the energy of the scene that i am studying that it would be a waste to not use them in the animation somehow. here is one of my favorite diagrams from the video, so you can see it big.




using the previous studies, the overlaying of all of the scene diagrams on top of each other, i was able to study the composition of the scene further. this first video is about overlaying the true colors at varying opacities, from 1% to 2 to 3 to 4 to 5, and then accelerating the transparency change by jumping up to 10% then 20 then 40 then 80 and finally 100. the subtlety here in the first five diagrams is beautiful to me and could represent the finer moments of the scene, such as the first and final segments. there is also a great deal of other spatial implications to these images that go far beyond this exercise.
