Seeing as my exhibition isn't going to be until some time in May or June of this year and because the narrative side of my project only consists of 20 different visuals, I have decided that I have plenty of time extend the story behind my project.
There are many ideas that I had for visuals that I didn't get a chance to film due to time constraints, but now that I have fewer deadlines to tackle and plenty of time between now and my exhibition I feel that it would be beneficial to try and film some of those ideas.
Filming additional video content for my project will not only enhance the narrative but also effect the randomness of the clips that are generated. Therefore this will have an effect on the users interaction with the installation.
My intention is for the user to interact more with the tree due to the expansion of the story. At the moment after a couple of touches the user will probably have seen most, if not all the scenes (not necessarily all the clips). This means that they will probably only engage with the installation for a short period of time.
However if the narrative is expanded then surely the users engagement will increase, as they will want to explore the depths of the story and how much it can morph over the course of a number of triggers.
Recently I have contacted my friend Robert who helped me film the previous set of clips for this project, and I have explained to him that I am looking to continue the filming process. He has agreed that it would be in mine and the projects best interest to do this and has accepted to help me once again.
We plan to meet up some time in March to discuss further ideas we could use as visuals and begin filming some time shortly after that.
