The video above is the completed rendition of my digital media animation project. The project developed from the beginning tryptic stills, constructed in photoshop, into an animation of one of the three, constructed in photoshop as well, and, lastly, ending with the additional sound as shown above, constructed in audacity. In this project I wanted to continue with the idea of juxtaposition. In this animation there are two ideas of juxtaposition that I aimed to present. Firstly, the sounds an images are juxtaposed against one another. They seem to not quite fit, but still have a flow about them. This is perhaps due to the juxtapositions of sounds not necessarily found in nature with several naturalistic images (with the exception of the clock and the ticking). The other juxtaposition takes place with the idea of the sound itself. The items that are animated within the image are all associated with silence; a quiet butterfly, the lightly ticking clock, the voiceless rays of the sun, the gentle flow of flowers blowing in a breeze. All of these are not things we would think of as predominant sounds, so, in order to challenge this idea, I decided to focus the sounds on these "silent sounds". The sound in this video features the background noises I recorded while sat in a library, the sound of a ticking clock, a sound of breath mimicking the wind, and the sound of a pen scribbling across paper.
