Reflecting of my artefact 2 – ‘power’.

My artefact ‘power’, i did it as 15 pictures with cute dogs which were taken by myself, and i want to express the point is that the animals are people’s good friend, so people should love them and protect them. But, as my totur said that, the 15 pictures just about cute dogs, they haven’t relate to the people. So, i need to do more research about them.

Then I chose 3 pics from google ‘Elliot Erwitt’, and make them together with my 6 pics. I used the photoshop to make their color all white and black, because i want to make the video a little solemn..I don’t want just let people who will see this video just think  ‘oh, cute dogs.’  Instead, I want the people can realise the dogs, and good to them from now on, because of they’re people’s friends.

I think the power of the friendship during the dogs and people, is very powerful. Thousands years ago, the dogs started to working for people, help people, stay with people, give people fun.Till now, the dogs also be the people’s good friend.

I also use photoshop to make 3 pics, and wrote something on them, use them as the opening of the video and the ending of the video. And I wrote something on each photo, because i want to use this video to say something.

Then I use Premiere to make them a video, just like you see.

This is my first time to use Premiere, I think it’s not good. But i think this idea about friendship is good in my mind. I want to make it better on this fordder next time when I learn the Premiere better.

Artefact 3 – My 15 pictures about ‘Spectacle’

I like travelling, I had been to many places in China. And I like the buildings, different buildings will give you the different feeling. Actually I like any kind of the view, because I think i can make them a photo, and each of them will has a story.

This is my second time in UK, in Coventry, I like the church and the buildings in Coventry, I think they are different from China Hangzhou(my hometown), I think Coventry is so lovely. So I had took a lot of pictures of Coventry.

And i had been to London, Birmingham and Stratford and so on. I think there are some differences bettween these cites.

Artefact 2 – My 15 pictures about ‘Power’

Generally speaking, ascendence and money is most powerful in the society. Of course there are so many other things are powerful. Just like love, lilies and roses, purpose, and charity.

If the ascendence and money make the world cold, the love and charity can make the world warm and peace.

Our love and charity incarnating on many side of the life. You love your parents and lover, you love your pets, you love your job, and so on.

Not only people have power, the animal have their power too, they’re lovely and cute, and very devout.

So, there more and more people keep pets, more and more people protect animal.

My artefact this time are the pictures of cute dogs. Just feel their strong power. If everyone love them, take care of them, everyone is a charity people. The world will filled with love.

Artefact 1 – My 15 pictures about ‘memory’

I think the idea is from the life, every day living on the world, you must have so many things can make you happy, make you sad, and make you hard to forget. And there also have something is very normal in your life, they’re so normal so you always lose sight of them. But I think if I put them on the pictures, most people will like them, because they’re just beside you.

Just like when I came from China, I get on the flight in Shanghai airport, then 13 hours in the plane, i feel so difficult in my inner space, not sad, not happy, hard to say by word. Then I took the pictures of the sky, just think the world is so big or so small.

And my first Halloween day in UK, my friend told me it’s very interesting, everyone will make up, and they will go on street. And the children will knock your door and ask for candy. Then I make up myself and took my camera to the city centre, but there were almost no one there, I don’t know why, so the pictures of my halloween day is very longly, lonely taxi, longly street, so i change the street’s color to pink, just in order to make it warmer and more lovely. Afterward my friend told me that the reason why the street was so longly is the people were going to the club. Then my friend took me to the club.. I took some pictures there, it was hot and interesting there.

I think if you look at them from another side, they may become more interesting.

The below 15 pictures are the embodiment of my idea..
