BYOB Project Repost/Edited!

I couldn't have been any happier with this project! I felt that I had struggled for a few weeks with video mapping. Even though it was not required for this particular project, I decided to give it another spin. In this project, I took the cheery Holiday theme. I initially wanted to mix both the themes of the end of the world and Christmas, but I felt it would've been too uncoordinated and one would've overpowered the other. I enjoyed playing with the positioning, space, scale, and camera layers to help with expansion and perspective. Creating snow, for the most part wasn't too dificult, but finding out how to characterize it was. The best aspect of this, I thought was the feeling of warmness that was intended. The absolute hardest part of this was trying to make my background invisible so that it gave the illusion of snow coming from the wall instead of the glowing black screen it was trapped in. Daniel Fergus,a media specialist down in the "@ One" located at the basement floor of University of Nevada Reno's Knowledge Center, tried helping me with this particular problem from morning til the afternoon before the event. Even though unsuccessful, I very deeply appreciate all of his help. I am so proud of what I created and was able to finish!
